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)
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.
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!
