Review: Great sharpening/ honing rod, ideal for hardened Japanese steels - Best honing / sharpening rod I have owned. Less aggressive than a diamond rod, but harder than my 61HRC Japanese knife steel (unlike a steel honing rod), so it actually does something, unlike steel hones. I touch up my knives on this every week or two and it keeps them remarkably sharp between proper water stone sharpenings. Technically this removes material, so it is better classified as a sharpening rod than a honing rod. This is the one you want for Japanese knives. Review: Sharpeak Total L.17.5-Inch/Rod L.12-Inch - I’ve been very impressed with the Sharpeak Total L 17.5-inch (Rod L 12-inch) setup. The build quality is solid and feels durable right out of the package. Everything fits together well with no issues during use, and it performs exactly as expected. It’s sturdy, reliable, and clearly made with attention to detail and heavy-duty. Overall, this is a great product for the price, and I would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a dependable option that holds up well over time. ## Features - The extra-long Sharpeak sharpening steel rod features built-in 20-degree angle guides for consistent and accurate sharpening angles. - The magnetized steel helps to keep metal shavings contained for easy cleanup, while the fine-grit surface of Sharpeak sharpening steel allows for quick and efficient sharpening of knives without requiring a lot of effort or skill. - While some sharpening rods claim to be 12 inches in length, it's important to note that this measurement may include the handle. However, Sharpeak sharpening rods have a rod length of 12 inches, excluding the handle. With the handle included, the total length measures 17.5 inches, making it suitable for sharpening a wide range of knives, from small chef's knives to large butchering knives. - The hone and realign feature of the sharpening rod can revive old knives and maintain razor-sharpness for extended periods of time. - The ergonomic handle and hexagonal hand guard provide safety and comfort during use, while the hardened steel with chromium plating ensures durability and longevity. - 3 YEARS of Commitment and Superior After-Sale Service: Sharpeak, headquartered in CA, US with branches in Germany and Australia, ensures easy and cost-effective sharpening solutions.

Closer rib spacing (like 0.2mm) provides more sharpening interfaces, allowing for more efficient and precise sharpening of the knife edge. **Q: Why is the hardness of a sharpening steel important?** A: Hardness in HRC is key for a sharpening steel's efficiency and durability. It's essential for honing high-quality knives made of hard steel, as a harder steel sharpens a broader range of knives effectively. **Q: How does rib integrity affect the sharpening process?** A: Rib integrity ensures that the ribs maintain their shape and effectiveness over time. High-quality steels retain their rib structure, ensuring consistent sharpening results and prolonging the tool's life. **Q: Can I sharpen serrated knives with a sharpening steel?** A: Sharpening serrated knives with a typical sharpening steel is generally not recommended. This is because the standard sharpening steel is designed for straight-edged blades and may not effectively reach the recessed areas of a serrated knife. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great sharpening/ honing rod, ideal for hardened Japanese steels *by U***G on December 27, 2025* Best honing / sharpening rod I have owned.

The build quality is solid and feels durable right out of the package. Everything fits together well with no issues during use, and it performs exactly as expected.

I cleaned it with a brush and a sponge, and it got a bit better, but it never was the same again. ## Frequently Bought Together - Sharpeak (a brand of SHARPAL) 108S 17.5-Inch/Rod L. 12-Inch Sharpening Steel Knife Sharpener Rod with Built-in Angle Guides Kitchen Knives Honer Knife Steel Honing Rod Chaira Para Cuchillos HRC 65 - MAC Knife Professional series 8" Chef's knife w/dimples MTH-80 - Sharp Pebble Premium Whetstone Knife Sharpening Stone 2 Side Grit 1000/6000 Waterstone- Whetstone Knife Sharpener- NonSlip Bamboo Base & Angle Guide --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.vn/products/529041748-sharpeak-a-brand-of-sharpal-108s-17-5-inch-rod](https://www.desertcart.vn/products/529041748-sharpeak-a-brand-of-sharpal-108s-17-5-inch-rod) --- *Product available on Desertcart Vietnam* *Store origin: VN* *Last updated: 2026-04-25*
