Description: Ceramic rods provide the best touch-up possible between sharpening. By removing very little material, the blade is honed to a razor edge. Fine ceramic rods will hone a knife to the most optimal edge. If a considerable time has passed since honing or sharpening, a coarse rod is often required. Generally, a ceramic rod should be approximately the length of the longest knife that you will be honing. Over time, ceramic rods build up metal particles that clog the abrasive surface. It is important to use a Superaser to clean the surface of all ceramic rods so that they will continue to hone just like they did when they were new. The STEELPORT 12” Oval Ceramic Honing Rod is an important tool for anyone who owns a kitchen knife. It’s thoughtfully designed for home and professional chefs alike who care about keeping their knives in peak performance. Developed in response to the limited options in the market for a large, comfortable honing rod that is versatile and durable enough to hone any blade, the STEELPORT 12” Oval Ceramic Honing Rod sets itself apart in many ways:

  • Versatile Ceramic: Exceptionally hard ceramic, providing an ideal surface and grit for realigning the microscopic edges of any kitchen knife, regardless of their steel hardness.
  • Efficient Oval Shape: Allows more contact with the blade for more consistent honing action. The only oval ceramic honing rod available.
  • Unique Contoured Wood Handle: An ergonomic grip for comfortable regular use, plus a safety guard -- all made from US-sourced walnut.
  • 12” Length: Allows for smooth full strokes, ideal for knives of all sizes.
  • Steel Core: Added durability and better balance.
  • Made-in-USA: Each STEELPORT Honing Rod is handcrafted in Portland, Oregon.
