FAQs
It is a honing rod. It realigns the cutting edge between sharpenings rather than grinding a new one. Honing keeps a sharp knife sharp; sharpening on a stone restores an edge that has actually worn.
Most cooks hone every few sessions or whenever the knife starts to feel less crisp. Three to five light passes per side is enough. Full sharpening on a whetstone is only needed every few months depending on use.

Olive Wood, fixed with copper flower rivets to match the Lan Series knives. Hand wash and dry it to protect the timber.
