One of our most asked questions: How do I hone my knives? And today, Viola Wüsthof is here to help🔪 The honing rod, a subtle yet powerful tool, performs the sacred dance of realigning your knifes edges, bringing your blades back to their prime state.

While sharpening involves removing layers of metal to create a brand-new edge, honing merely ensures that your blade's existing edge is in perfect harmony. | WÜSTHOF
