   I’m the type of person that will steel there knives after every use if I can help it and will check the edge of my knives every week and hit them with a ceramic rod or once on my whetstones on a yearly basis, I can with absolute pleasure say that this ceramic rod should be that last one you would need to buy period.I have had a few in my time,none quite as girthy as this one, nor as light, not that it being light is a bad thing mind you, I appreciate the technology that wen’t into crafting this marvel of a rod and trust it to be there and perform every week till the end of time. If I ever feel differently about this product i will update my review to reflect it but as it stand pick yourself up one and treasure it like gold, a sharp knife is such an undervalued commodity. One area of note is that this rod does produce a nice toothy edge very quickly ( under a minute on well maintained knives ). I will if I have the luxury of time strop said knife / tool to refine the edge, but not completely take away the edges bite for cutting raw fish for example.EDIT 6/6/21: I’ve since sharpened hundreds of knives for friends, family and co workers. This rod still performs as good as the day I got it, and while it’s earned some battle scars, I’ve grown to appreciate this tool even more. One mod I’ve done that helps when I’m on the go or taking this rod to work ( currently in the food service industry ) is I’ve rubberbanded a wine cork onto the key ring on the butt end of the handle. That allows for quick removal of burrs when time is of the essence. I’ve also made a foam sheath and secured it with black zip ties to further ensure that If it does take a fall that the chances of it breaking is lessened.EDIT 6/22/21: I’ve since used this rod on HAP40, SG2, VG-10,1075,50CRMOV15 and a host of other steels. With the hardest blade being my HAP40 270MM gyuto clocking in at 65HRC, and still this rod continues to impress and hones that steel as quick as 50CRMOV15, which comparatively is a much softer steel at 56-58 HRC. To put things into perspective I used my HAP40 gyuto for a catering event; I cut 4 bags of onions, 20LB’s of ahi, 6 bags of smoke meat, and 12 bags of kamaboco. After all that cutting all my gyuto needed was a minute on this rod and it was back to my standard of sharp. When I get home I do strop my gyuto if I have the time for less than a minute to tone down the toothy edge this rod will produce, but not try to eliminate it should I need to cut veggies with problematic skins for knives taken up to too high a grit such as tomatoes or peppers for example.

   I’m a pretty decent freehand sharpener, I sometimes use guided systems too. This ceramic rod is my last step (sometimes I’ll leather strop too if I’m looking for mirror finish, or even more insane sharpness). Once I’ve hit the apex on a diamond or natural stone depending on the steel, this rod refines and hones edges to the point of absurdity. Works just fine on 20cv, m390, and other ridiculous steels. This is the best edge maintenance and factory edge improving tool I’ve ever owned as well, assuming I like the factory edge geometry to begin with, this is often the only tool many of my knives ever see, and they’re all scary sharp, from soft high carbon to hard super steel, neck knives to kitchen knives and machetes. If I could only have one sharpening tool, this would be it, it removes steel, not just hones it, given enough time you could sharpen any tool with just this rod. Once you get familiar with the “skating” feeling of the edge over the rod, it’s just a matter of time until you have a scary edge. I’ve also had this for years now, and it works as well as the day it was bought. If you couldn’t tell, I recommend this item.

   I’m learning that it’s not really the quality of a knife or its steel that determines how it cuts; it’s how recently and well you sharpened it. I own a high-quality mechanical knife sharpener but I rarely take it out of the cupboard on account of the noise it makes, and the whole 3-slot process you have to do with it.This ceramic knife sharpener was a revelation. I give my $7 knife from IKEA a few passes before starting on an onion, and — whoah — so freaking sharp! So effortless to cut. I have a few really sketchy knives in my collection, and even they seem transformed.

   Light weight, sturdy, solid rod, long enough to get a good draw on your knife when honing the edge. I have a Henckels sharpening steel I like also, but I have a couple of nice Global Japanese knives that recommend ceramic vs steel honing rods because Japanese steel is harder and needs a harder sharpening rod to finish a good edge. The ceramic is much harder and does a nice job finishing the edge after sharpening on a waterstone and in between stone sharpenings.

   Easy for anyone to sharpen kitchen knives. One doesn’t need to be a pro to use this.

   This works fairly well – I was used to a steel honing rod that I’ve been using for 30+ years! I figured it was time to try the ceramic one. It is quite a bit thicker than my previous one and doesn’t fit in my knife rack, which was very disappointing. The white rod shows every pass of the knife and it not easy to clean. It does appear to work fairly well at keeping my knife blades sharp, and that is the most important aspect of this item.
