Ceramic sharpening steels

Ceramic sharpening steels – gentle precision for perfectly sharp knives

Ceramic sharpening steels are the ideal choice for anyone who takes sharpness seriously. Unlike traditional steel sharpening steels, ceramic does not remove material, but gently aligns micro-teeth and returns the blade to its ideal shape. Thanks to their high hardness, ceramic sharpening steels are extremely effective for sharpening knives made of hard steels – including Japanese blades.

Advantages of ceramic sharpening steels:

Harder than conventional steel – effectively sharpens even high-quality hard knives

Fine grain (e.g. JIS #1200) – ideal for precise maintenance

Maintains the edge without grinding or material loss

Great for professional chefs and demanding home users

Also available in a telescopic design – practical for travelling

Note:

Ceramic is hard but brittle – protect the sharpener from falling and rough handling.
