Highlights
Quality
I was surprised at how heavy and thick this thing was when i opened it my 1st thought was this thing could be used as a weapon ... Read More
This was a gift for my husband he was so pleased
My sense is that the ceramic is not as fine a a steel nevertheless i am happy with the result
Then i did an additional 5 swipes per with the new ceramic honer and the test was noticeably improved
Price
95 twenty years ago so the price hasnt gone up that much
Packaging/appearance
Was a perfect gift and the second one purchased for myself
I used it on my osborne as soon as i got it out of the box could definitely tell a difference
Extreme care went into packaging this behemoth honing rod
Only issue is the way its glued into the handle
Competitiveness
I have a benchmade with a d2 steel blade that i use on the farm
But it works as well as the more expensive ceramics and its worth the extra care for the lower price
Do this on both sides of knive blade

Extreme care went into packaging this behemoth honing rod
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
It is hefty so it will not fit in many knive blocks so expect it to keep it in your dinnerware drawer but expect that its too big to fit in with your regular dinner utensils its at least 16 long and handle is over 1 diameter

Other reviews have commented that their rod came with a small defect on the very end mine did not but in any case it is not anything that would affect its use so dont infer that its defective in any way

Seems like a small manufacturing defect but nothing that would cause me to return it

It does a good job of honing knives will sharpen to an extent there is some material on the stone after use but wouldn’t use if i had to grind away material due to a nick in the blade that’s not what i got it for anyway
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
It cleans easily just wish it was a little smaller even if it had just a shorter handle since it won’t fit in my kitchen drawers
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
Good product but handel came unattached from unit can be glued back on high epoxy glue
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
Because its ceramic you have to protect it and its big and clunky and you cant just throw it on the floorboard or hang it from a belt loop
