HIGHEST QUALITY JAPANESE CERAMIC: Noble Home & Chef ceramic hones are made with quality Japanese ceramic materials built to withstand years of use and ideal for hard steel knives including Japanese knives.

CHOOSE FROM 2 GRIT OPTIONS: This knife hone offers 2 different grit options in 1 honer! Choose to sharpen your knife using 2 more aggressive sides of lined/stropped 1000 grit for particularly dull knives, polish the edge up using 2 sides of finer smooth 2000 grit, or use both for progressive knife sharpening.

SAFER DESIGN AND MATERIALS: No plastic or rubber tips at the end of the ceramic sharpener keeps your knife from being damaged or chipped by accident while honing. Our Japanese ceramic is odorless, non-toxic, never rusts, and is designed not to breed bacteria. A ceramic sharpener you can trust!

HANGING LOOP FOR EASY ACCESS- We include a stainless steel metal hanging ring so you can access your knife rod quickly and easily in commercial kitchens!

MAINTENANCE: Our ceramic rods are very hard, and like all ceramics, are sensitive to shocks. Please avoid dropping the knife sharpener tool or hitting it on a hard surface, as it is liable to break. If you have butter fingers, we recommend checking out our steel honing rods!

Keeping Our Blades Sharp 101

Honing Rods vs. Knife Sharpeners

What we see chefs doing all the time is actually honing a knife rather than sharpening it. A knife hone absolutely makes a blade sharper, so many of us think it's a sharpening rod. Sharpening a knife, though, is usually done with a whetstone or electric sharpener and removes metal from the blade to form a new edge. For home cooks, this shouldn't be done more than 2 times a year. What we should be doing on a regular basis is honing our knives!
Honing realigns the blade's edge to remove the dullness created by microscopic folds over time, while only removing a minimal amount of metal. Readjusting the edge with a honer will make it cut like new without taking away so much metal!
Ceramic rods with a grit around 400-800 are sharpening your knife. A grit around 2000 is honing your knife.
Ceramic rods are harder and should always be used (rather than honing steel rods) for harder knives.
