A honing rod for the bench, not a sharpener. The steel rod realigns the edge of your knife between proper sharpenings, keeping it true and biting through everyday prep. Forged from hardened 10Cr15CoMoV steel and fitted with a Linen Micarta handle, the Elegant Series B38L is built to outlast the knives it maintains.
