Product Description Ceramic Steel is at home in both camp or kitchen to make short work of cutlery maintenance. A glistening black handle with large knife guard holds the bright white 12 in. rod.
Amazon.com Review Made of lightweight and smooth ceramic, this steel hones knife edges in between professional sharpenings without removing any metal from the blade. One of the least abrasive knife sharpening materials, ceramic gently pushes the burr back into place without the danger of ruining the edge if the cook's technique is not exact. In addition, the ceramic is unbreakable, resistant to wearing, and nonporous for easy hand washing with mild soap and water. Proper honing and aligning with this tool requires just a few downward strokes with light pressure while holding the blade at a 20-degree angle. The pointed tip on the end of the rod plants firmly into a cutting board keeps it from moving during honing. A steel should always be longer than the blade it is honing and, at 12 inches long, this ceramic sharpening rod can be used to maintain all kitchen knives. The steel has a sanitary black plastic handle with a guard to protect hands and a color-coded ring at the end for hanging it up. DMT generously vows to replace any product found to be defective free of charge. --Cristina Vaamonde

Ceramic Knife Sharpener/manual March 8, 2008 Steve Woloszyn (Wilmington,Delaware) Diamond Machining Technology 12-Inch Diamond Steel Shapening Rod, Fine GritThis knife sharpener is the BEST.Although I have other sharpeners and steels for my knives. I use this one the most. The grit and length are perfect. I would prefer that the company include a usage/instruction note to future puchasers(proper angle). Cleaning--is easy,a little ajax or comet cleanser and water keep the ceramic rod from getting clogged. The sharpener also has a larger safety guard covering the handle than other sharpening steels or ceramic sharpeners.
A good value for the $ January 14, 2008 P. Masters (Florida) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
The ceramic sharpening steel is just the right size if you have a 10" or 12" knife as well as anything smaller. It has a well designed hand guard for safety. It does seem a little coarser than I would have liked and the ceramic is actually a thin coating over an aluminum rod(beware of chipping it). It is deceptively sturdy and has held up quite well for several weeks of use now. Over all it makes short work of reshaping the edge of a dull knife and will take the edge to a good, sharp, working edge, but I find a smoother, polished edge lasts much longer. Overall I am pleased and feel it is an effective "sharpening rod" and a good value for the price.
Diamond Machining Technology 12-Inch Ceramic Steel Does The Job February 13, 2007 W. Bailey (Utah) 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
The Diamond Machining Technology 12-Inch Ceramic Steel works quite well to maintain an edge on all of my kitchen knives and wood carving knives and gouges once an edge has been established. The edge it leaves is a smooth, polished surface which reduces the need for frequent abrasive sharpenings. Initially the somewhat lower the typical price was the motivating factor for this purchase but now that I have used it I am quite impressed by its quality construction, its ease of use and the fine edge it puts on my blades. It did require some use to remove a powdery white residue from its firing but I have not found any other inconveniences with this cermac "steel." I like it.
