Miyabi Birchwood SG2 9-inch Honing Rod

This 9-inch honing rod is made to match the Miyabi Birchwood line. Birchwood knives do not need regular honing; the rod is for the occasional touch-up that brings back the bite of an edge between whetstone sharpenings.

Hold the rod vertically on the board and draw the knife down it at the same low angle as the factory edge, with light pressure and alternating sides. A few strokes are enough on a hard steel.

It suits the Birchwood 8-inch chef’s knife and other Birchwood knives. Owners of Miyabi Black should use the Black tungsten honing rod.
