About Global Honing Rod G-38/B, 10in/26cm Knife Diamond
Description Amazon.com Although steels often are touted as sharpening tools, few actually sharpen knife blades, but they do perform the vital task of realigning, or resetting, edges, which bend when contacting a cutting surface or other hard object. Because this tool's chrome/vanadium stainless-steel rod contains hundreds of thousands of diamond particles, it's hard enough to somewhat sharpen a blade. Using this steel won't replace a professional sharpening job, which proceeds from coarse grinding to ever-finer grinding at tightly controlled angles. However, it will lengthen intervals between sharpenings better than a steel without diamonds because it accomplishes the final task of a professional sharpening, which is polishing the edge to a fine point. Exceptionally well made, this tool's rod has a solid core and has been plated with hard chrome for additional resistance to abrasion and to extend its life. Because the rod is a 3/4-inch-wide oval, it exposes more surface and works quicker than a cylindrical rod. Like Global's signature knife handles, the steel's handle is molded for comfort and dimpled for a safe grip. The rule is that a steel should be at least as long as the knife blade being drawn across it, and this steel's 10-inch rod is long enough for most household knives. --Fred Brack Product Description Maintain your knife blades with this sharpener from Global. Using this ceramic rod, you can hone any knife and give it a finer edge than with traditional sharpening rods. You can comfortably use the steel handle to hone knife edges and feel safe because this rod has a finger guard. Use the knives sharpened by this honing rod to make slicing heavy dishes such as fruit tarts or slicing potatoes for French fries. This ceramic rod is sure to last a long time and can easily be maintained with just a hand wash and drying.
