10.5" overall length - Ceramic rod measures approximately 5" in length**

Diameter of ceramic rod is 5/16" (see photos of micrometer measurement as well as using Gage-it hardware gauge)

 Solid Oak wood handle, with hole at end - perfect for hanging up on peghook, tying a leather loop to hang virtually anywhere. 

 ****100% Made in the USA!**** (yes, from US materials!)

 Ceramic Sharpening Stick / Honing Rod is perfect for quick touch ups on pocket knives and kitchen cutlery.

Keep one with your Chef's knife in the kitchen and another in the garage to easily sharpen your blades to a razor sharp edge. 

Grit is the equivalent of approx. 1600-2000 microns - which is ideal for edge maintenance, honing and keeping a sharp knife very sharp. 

 Also works great to sharpen any serrations / serrated knives, scissors, fish hooks, garden shears or pruners, etc. Does it need to be sharpened? This will probably do the job. If you have a can of WD40, a roll of duct tape and one of these sharpeners, you should be ready to take on the world. Or at least the day. Or your dull kitchen knife. Probably not a zombie apocalypse, but maybe. Get after it!

Make sure you've cleaned the old one before buying a replacement! These things last a very long time. If you need another size, or just the ceramic rod without the handle, please check out our other listings:

-If you feel strongly enough about your needs, or must have a very specific size, send us a message! We would be happy to grab a sharpener, lay it out next to a ruler along with a piece of paper with your username and once you approve, we'll send you that exact sharpener including the piece of paper that was in the picture.

-We can also make them to order, within reason and certain limitations. 

-We've sold hundreds of our sharpeners with 100% positive feedback, especially our packing to ensure fast, safe shipping! We stand behind our work, and absolutely do not want anyone to feel mislead by anything we've put in the description. 

-The intent of this Ceramic Rod is to hone / keep an edge sharp and is not designed to re-profile a chipped/damaged/abused/dull/beaten up knife. If you need to sharpen to the extent of actual repair, we recommend diamond or carbide sharpeners, benchstones or whetstones, etc. Essentially, a sharpening kit that includes something with a ~600 grit coarse stone or a product designed to remove enough material to provide a new edge.  

Open door policy, so if you're unsure, messages are a great tool, and we strive to respond within minutes if not a few hours. Thanks for considering supporting our small business, based in the great state of TEXAS!
