Shenzhen products are designed not only to look beautiful in your home, but also to serve a more useful purpose. We listen to you and study our competitors, as we always ask "How can we make it better?" Our products are meticulously planned and designed to work better with your lifestyle. They work more effectively for your tasks, so that you don't have to.
- WHITE CERAMIC: Only diamonds are harder than the Shenzhen white ceramic knife sharpeners; the ceramic alumina is rust resistant, stronger than traditional steel, and has an HRC hardness rating of 68
- HONE AND SHARPEN: Our rods have a slightly abrasive 1000 grit rating for realigning the knife edge; sweep your chosen blade along the rod to hone the edge and reduce the need for frequent sharpening
- RECTANGULAR BLADE GUARD: The wide nylon handle fits comfortably into your hand and the rectangular blade guard is reinforced with zinc alloy to protect you from stray knife strokes while sharpening
- PROFESSIONAL USE: The 12-inch sharpener is long enough for professional use; easily hone and straighten any stainless steel knife in your kitchen including chef knives, cooking and carving knives, and hunting knives (does not sharpen serrated blades)
- HAND WASH ONLY: Remove gray streaks and buildup by hand washing the sharpening rod with mild dish soap and a sponge; the ceramic is breakable, so be careful not to drop the sharpener onto the floor
