Description: Zwilling J. A. Henckles Honing Rod Solingen, Germany Hanging Black Handle One of the biggest misconceptions about this particular type of kitchen tool you see here, is the belief that it's a knife sharpener. It doesn't help that many manufacturers sell their honing steels as such. But a honing steel is not a sharpener. Ridged, rod-like honing steels, or "stropping irons," as they're sometimes called, do not sharpen blades; they realign them and remove a burr that is created during sharpening. Likewise, they can give a quick edge between your regular sharpening schedule. This is like a barber stopping a single edge razor on a leather strop. Edge maintenance is a preventive measure: It helps keep sharp knives sharp and safe. There is an adage that a knife that is not sharp is not safe. The Zwilling J. A. Henckels logo is one of the oldest trademarks on record and is recognized the world over as a symbol of highest quality and function. The Zwilling J. A. Henckels brand was established on June 13, 1731, the day knife maker Peter Henckels registered the Zwilling logo with the Cutlers Guild of Solingen. He chose Zwilling because June 13 falls under the astrological sign of Gemini and the German word Zwilling means twin or Gemini. Since then, the brand has been committed to uncompromising quality and form. Today, nearly 280 years later, Zwilling J. A. Henckels is appreciated around the world for its excellent innovative products. Zwilling J. A. Henckels stands for knives that are sharp, tough, durable, cut well, ergonomic, and beautiful. This Zwilling J.A. Henckels honing rod is in like new condition. There are no marks or gouges within the honing surface. The handle is secure and includes a molded in loop for hanging. Made is Solingen, Germany by a long-standing company with a very long and reputable reputation. This honing rod has numerous years of service remaining. Please see all photos.
