xMeet the SHARPAL 119N Diamond Sharpening Steel
The SHARPAL 119N is a professional-grade honing rod designed to maintain, realign, and polish knife edges with care. Its surface features a very fine diamond coating (1200 grit), delivering a refined touch that supports routine maintenance while helping blades stay true to their original geometry. This setup aims to provide predictable, controlled results for busy kitchens and discerning home cooks alike.
Diamond is the hardest natural material, allowing this rod to work on tools that pose challenges for other sharpening media. It can be effective for traditional kitchen knives and also for blades made from harder materials, such as ceramics and certain hard alloys. The result is a reliable touch-up that polishes and realigns without tearing or excessive wear.
Safety, control, and design
A protective ring on the handle guards your hand, and the ergonomic grip offers a comfortable, secure hold during use. The round sharpening bar supports smooth, efficient movements, helping you maintain a steady rhythm as you refine edge geometry. This combination is designed to support safe handling and consistent performance in daily sharpening tasks.
Care and storage
After sharpening, dry the diamond surface and store the rod in a cool, dry place. Proper care helps preserve the coating and keeps the tool ready for future sessions.
