Hmm, not sure about that one. On a side note. I used one of the knives I bought for cutting up some London Broil for a batch of jerky I'm gearing up to do. It was like cutting through butter. I'm happy with them.

Steve, I'm not trying to be a know-it-all but that rod is a honing steel and isn't used as a knife sharpener. It realigns the blade and will take off burrs. I use it before each use out of habit or often when boning and trimming.

Several years in a meat market back in the day.

Thank you for letting me know. That was the description from the web site I bought it from. I wouldn't know the difference! Is that used in the same way as a sharpening rod?

Exactly. They are commonly called sharpening steel, but don't really sharpen. Here's a good link: https://www.cooksillustrated.com/articles/276-how-to-use-a-honing-rod. Although most don't put the handle up but rather the point up and not on a hard surface.

Thank you. I'll check the site out.
