Sharpening Rod - Elegant Series (B38L)

Reach for this before you reach for the whetstone. A honing rod doesn't remove steel; it realigns the edge that's folded over from ordinary use. Five or six passes before a prep session and your Elegant Series knife cuts the way it did the week you bought it.

Maintain the Edge You Already Have

Your Damascus blade's edge doesn't go dull so much as it goes sideways. Microscopic bends accumulate with every session on the board, and that's what makes the knife push food instead of slicing through it. Running the rod along the edge a few times straightens it back without thinning the steel the way a stone does. Do it regularly and your stone sessions become a quarterly event instead of a weekly one.
