Did you know you get a Honing Rod 50% off with kitchen knife purchase. Just add a kitchen knife and rod to your cart to take advantage of this offer!
This black honing rod is perfect for maintaining a knife’s edge between sharpenings. 3-6 strokes on each side of the blade will keep it silky and awesome. Forget what you’ve seen from the TV chefs. You don't need a ton of pressure or speed. Just be precise and gentle. Any questions? Check out the video below to see how it's done!
If you’re looking to hone the edges of knives during sharpening, we prefer the coarser, white honing rod because it does a better job of cleaning burrs.
Honing rods are not made with abrasive material so there is no grit rating but the Black Rod is similar to 6000 grit.
Looking for the bonus round of Knifenerd level sharpness? Complete the trifecta by using the white rod, the black rod, and then the leather strop.

"I had excellent service when I was there. The young lady that helped me out showed me all different knives and was very gracious with her time. I didn’t have my 50% off honing rod coupon when I went in and she’s still honoured it. Amazingly they had the artisan in who built my knife the following weekend and that was an amazing time as well. Great group and I will buy from them again."
"Never thought I needed one, always take my knives in for professional sharpening, but wow, so happy I bought it."
"It keeps my knife sharp and is very easy to use, amazing grip, Never afraid I might cut myself while using. Ten out of Ten."
"Fast Shipping"
"Super easy to use!"
"Excellent."
"It was suggested I purchase this as I did not have one, I only had a couple of other sharpening apparatus and they let me know why this would be a better choice, and much better for my knives. Was properly trained in how to use it by my sales clerk, and it actually does an amazing job at keeping my knives in top order."
"First time using a rod of any kind so getting used to it but it works great for all types of knives."
"I picked up a couple of things on my Knifewear order. . . a Knifewear Ceramic Honing Rod and a very cool Seki Kanetsugu Miyabi Isshin Sujihiki knife. Ordering was easy. . . delivery took about a week, no charge. . . and the packaging was perfect! Very happy with both products. The Sujihiki knife is very sharp out of the box, and the Knifewear Honing Rod is perfect for maintaining that edge. Highly recommended!"
"Sure it’s a bit pricey but good tools are. Never knew how much I needed this."
