Review on πŸ”ͺ AC46 Ceramic 11.5" Sharpening Stick - Arkansas Sharpeners: 7" Rod & Wood Handle by Derick Carpenter

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great product at a great price with only one suggestion for improvement

Count me among those who don't understand how a ceramic rod can make such a difference in the final edge of a knife blade. I just didn't understand and didn't believe it. Now I regret not trying it much sooner. This stone is very easy to use and once you learn how to maintain a good knife blade angle in relation to the abrasive when sharpening, this stone (any good ceramic stone) makes a world of difference and I'm very close to creating something a razor blade. . This handlebar is well built, the grip allows me to focus on maintaining that angle for both sides of the blade. The price was very low and the only improvement I could wish for is the protection between the handle and the sharpening stone. This would allow the user to safely return the blade to the hand without fear of cutting the same hand with a sharp edge, almost like a razor, if the user slips or is poked in any way. Overall a purchase I am very happy with.
