Why sharpen your knives?

Despite popular belief, dull blades can be more dangerous than sharp ones. When slicing meat or tough veggies with a dull knife, you must use extra force and pressure to cut through - a recipe for fatigue and even carpal tunnel. Additionally, when a blade isn't sharpened, it has a tendency to slide and press against food, making it much more likely to slip and cause accidents. For that reason, it's important to hone your knives regularly.

The Rod

This long blade of honing steel, known as a sharpening steel, is essential for sustaining the sharpness of your knife blade. Diamond chips adorn the rod, facilitating a swift and effortless sharpening.

The G10 Handle

Fashioned with a cast iron and luxuriously crafted G10 handle, this rod's ergonomic design ensures a secure and comfortable grip, so you can hone your knives with poise and peace of mind, free from the danger of any unfortunate accidents. Boasting impeccable craftsmanship and premium-grade materials, this rod is sure to accompany you for years to come.

How it works?

This item is designed to keep knives sharp from tip to heel — all you have to do is slide the blade up and down the rod at the desired angle. This creates surface friction which will align the blade's edge, as well as removing particles that might rust the blade and cause it to dull. Additionally, this rod can be used to sharpen other cutting tools, such as kitchen shears or scissors. Durable and essential for any kitchen, the Kanpeki 10" Diamond Sharpening Rod is a must-have.
