The rod is also good a deburring after using a whetstone and the results can lead to hair shaving/ popping sharpness . I , usually , use a one to two stone setup(Shapton glass 500 to 1000 or chosera 400 to 800 or 1000 )depending on how dull or damaged the knife is plus a ceramic rod and plain leather strop . This set up has led to great consistency resulting in a hair shaving sharpness on all my kitchen knives .

Bei Küchenmesser die scharf sind kann man so wirklich den Schliff halten oder ihn verbessern bzw optimieren, je nach belieben. Es reichen oft nur 2-3 Züge pro Seite und der Schliff ist perfekt. Für stumpfe Messer ist die Körnung zu fein und würde unverhältnismäßig lange dauern.
Da der Stab angenehm groß ist, lassen sich auch größere Outdoormesser wie zb. SOG Seal Team, oder Cold Steel Trail Master, oder Messer mit einer Hohlklinge wie Kukris oder ein Khopesh z.B. problemlos schleifen.
Der Griff ist angenehm, rutschfest und der Fingerschutz ist ausreichend groß gestaltet.
Kann trocken oder feucht angewendet werden und ist mit einem Schwamm leicht zu reinigen.
Eine Art Scheide wäre zum Schutz oder zur Lagerung um die Lebensdauer zu erhöhen sicher von Vorteil, aber man kann sich da mit einem Kartonrohr oder einem passenden PVC-Rohr gut selber helfen.
Auf Jeden fall sollte das ein Standard in der Küche sein.
