A diamond-grit honing rod for keeping your kitchen knives true between sharpenings. The 228mm working surface is diamond-coated over a hard steel core, so it stays aggressive enough to realign the edge on hard 60+ HRC and Damascus blades. Honing is not sharpening, it straightens the edge you already have, a few passes a side, so your knife keeps biting day to day. Full-tang olive wood handle, riveted in stainless, made in Yangjiang.

A few light passes per side before or after a cooking session. Honing little and often keeps the edge true and stretches out the time between full sharpenings.
Natural olive wood, full-tang and set with stainless steel rivets. Each handle has its own grain.
No. Hand wash and dry it, and give the olive wood an occasional wipe of food-safe oil to keep it from drying out.
Yes. It ships in a premium gift box.
