A ceramic sharpening rod is a useful maintenance tool for the kitchen. To use the sharpening rod, hold the sharpening rod against the edge of the knife and drag the knife along the rod at the angle at which the knife is sharpened in a smooth motion. This will extend the life of the knife and maintain its sharpness.

After using the sharpening rod, we also recommend using a leather strap to polish the edge, so that the knife becomes even sharper and stays sharp longer.

Note that it is important to use the correct technique, and be careful to avoid damage to both the knife and yourself.
