Global 10-inch Oval Diamond Sharpening Steel
A diamond rod restores an edge faster than ceramic, and Global notes that it will not shatter if it is dropped. The G-38/B is Global’s diamond-coated rod, oval in section, for cooks who want a honing tool that also sharpens when an edge has gone past simple realignment.It suits a busy kitchen where knives see heavy use between sharpenings. The 26 cm length gives a full stroke on chef’s knives and slicers. Because diamond removes metal more quickly than ceramic, it calls for a light hand and only as many strokes as the edge needs.
Diamond or Ceramic?For routine daily honing and a finer finish, Global’s Ceramic Sharpening Rod is the gentler choice. Choose diamond if your knives dull quickly or you want one rod that can bring an edge back without a stone. Fully dull knives are better served by a whetstone or the Global 2-Stage Ceramic Water Sharpener. Learn More$219.95
