I’ve never really cared for “ribbed” steels. I’ve used a smooth steel for years. Thought I’d try this one, and glad I did. With just a couple Of swipes across this steel, My filet knives are both cutting better than when they were new. To be fair, one is new, and wouldn’t cut, wouldn’t saw, but kind of would tear. Now it slices. The two changeable angle guides would be good addition for those not used to using steels. They will be used to reshape knives that are beyond needing a couple swipes.

This is a honing steel-meant to gently straighten the cutting edge of your knife in between sharpenings. an important distinction because if your knives are actually dull, this isn’t going to help.The nice feature is the blade guide provided which attaches to the steel and gives the user a good idea of the angle you are holding the blade at (17 or 20 degrees are the choices provided.)The quality is great– the steel is full tang– you can see the rod between the two halves of the handles as you would on a properly constructed knife. The guides are well labelled and fit securely to the steel. Wish there was a better storage arrangement for the plastic guides as you will not be able to store this cleanly iin a knife block as most people do and the fact that there are two guides means that one will always be loose somewhere.Note that the guide does not attach in any way to the blade–it is simply meant to demonstrate what 17 degrees looks and feels like as you are honing. If you typically hone in the air using both sides of the steel (as a butcher might–first away and then towards ), this is not for you. This particular design wants you to place the point of the steel vertically on a cutting board or forgiving surface and then draw the blade down one side and then the other. It’s safer but a bit awkward for those used to the other way.

This rod is much larger and heavier than my previous sharpening rod, which I like. If you had a smoother type of rod as I did before, this one will take a little getting used to, as I was having issues at the start with the knife blade catching and dragging on the steel. After a few minutes I got used to it and it did improve the edges on my blades. The angle guide does seem to help a little after I perfected my motion.Now, if I can get on a regular schedule of honing my knives, I’ll be all set.

Okay, so the first thing you need in a good blade sharpener is a good rod, which this isThen you just draw it at a 20 degree aanngle and… what do you mean “How do you find a 20 d…?” How should I know? It’s like a 45 degree angle only different it’s…You know, what we could REALLY use is a doohickey that guides you to exactly a 20… it DOES?Wow, whoda’ thunk itThis is one heckuva rod!

I’ll say up-front, I’ve never used a sharpening rod. But I’ve been using my kitchen knives for quite awhile, and I figured this sharpening rod would be a good thing to try.As I say, I’m a raw beginner so I was really looking forward to getting some guidance from the “detailed ebook with pictures” guide that they gave a link to (and also a QR code). Unfortunately, all the page does is ask for my email address so they could send me the guide. I’m not thrilled with giving out my email address just to get instructions on how to use a product, but I did. However, the guide is rather general, as is the short video on the product description page. So I searched YouTube for “using a knife sharpening rod” and I got lots of good information — not about this specific product, but about sharpening rods in general. Don’t bother asking for their ebook.As for the sharpening rod, it appears to be of good quality. It’s nice that the knife comes with an angle-guide to help you achieve the right sharpening angle (although I’m incapable of distinguishing between 17- and 20-degrees). It would be really nice to know which angle (17 or 20) I should be trying to achieve, but again rely on someone else’s YouTube video to explain that (unless you already know, of course).Bottom line I’m not at all sure that an experienced or professional knife user will need the angle-guide, but it’s somewhat helpful to me to approximate a 20-degree angle. But since I can’t tell whether I’m sharpening at 17 or 20 degrees, I don’t need the extra angle-guide. I’m sure it’s just going to get lost in a drawer quickly.So what it all comes down to is, this is a good (as far as I can tell) sharpening rod. But the only thing that makes it really different from other honing steels is that it comes with 2 angle-guides, one of which is unnecessary to a beginner (and both of them may be unnecessary to an experienced honer).Whether or not this makes it superior to other sharpening rods is something that more experienced users will have to say.

I’ve been trying for a while to get my kitchen knives sharp. Stones, sharpening tools, now this honing rod. Not wasted, those tools, because the knife has to be pretty sharp before the honing rod will do anything useful.I like the angle guide idea, although it would be helpful to have a recommendation for the best angle, or the tradeoffs, or some way to decide which guide to use.It turns out to be tricky to keep the blade at the desired angle for the duration of a stroke. The good thing is that the deviation is away from vertical, so although it doesn’t sharpen the blade, at least it doesn’t dull the blade. I think angle deviation, and in the wrong direction, is what’s preventing me from getting better results with the other tools, but I haven’t figured out how to avoid it.I think all this is a matter of skill, and will improve with practice. The absence of rapid measurable feedback makes it difficult, but I do believe I’m slowly improving. I’m not too far from the point where testing the blade with my fingertips will turn out to be a mistake.The bottom line is that my knives are much sharper than before, and the honing rod helps. There’s no magic.
