Review: Great Field Sharpener - This ceramic rod serves as a field sharpener in conjunction with a diamond rod and small leather strop. I didn’t quite know what to expect in terms of the perceived grit when I got it and the best way I can explain the grit would be less than 1500 grit for sure only because I have a Green Elephant ceramic rod and that’s what that one is rated at however the interesting thing about this rod is that the texture of the rod is coarser than even the Lansky Sharp-Stick I got and that one is supposed to be 800 grit however the rod on that on is much smoother, so who’s to say you can tell the grit by the feel of the rod eh? This rod would be a great candidate for a diy handle if you are diy curious or just used bare would be a great field sharpener. Review: Pocket friendly - I purchased the ceramic rod with the intent to carry wherever I went. The rod is a good grit helping maintain an edge on my pocket knives while away from my home. The ends of the rod are not sharp or uncomfortable to hold unto. I also find the length to make it easy to use yet compact enough to throw in a pocket. I feel that the value was fair to the price as well. I will be purchasing another to keep in my vehicle. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B00AFWPHV0 | | Best Sellers Rank | #101,033 in Kitchen & Dining ( See Top 100 in Kitchen & Dining ) #363 in Knife Sharpeners | | Brand | Arkansas Sharpeners | | Brand Name | Arkansas Sharpeners | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 out of 5 stars 440 Reviews | | Grit Type | Fine | | Item Dimensions L x W x H | 4.5"L x 0.5"W x 0.5"H | | Item Weight | 1 Pounds | | Manufacturer | Arkansas Sharpeners | | Material | Ceramic | | Material Type | Ceramic | | Number of Items | 1 | | Product Dimensions | 4.5"L x 0.5"W x 0.5"H | | UPC | 781147567891 | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Arkansas Sharpeners - **Grit Type:** Fine - **Item Weight:** 1 Pounds - **Manufacturer:** Arkansas Sharpeners - **Material:** Ceramic - **Number of Items:** 1 - **Product Dimensions:** 4.5"L x 0.5"W x 0.5"H - **UPC:** 781147567891 ## Images ![Arkansas Sharpeners 4 1/2in.

While they can, we recommend using honing oil. The main difference between the two is that when oil is used, some of it remains in the stone after a sharpening session, so the stone is always at least partially charged with oil the next time it is needed. A stone soaked in water can dry out between uses however, meaning that a generous amount of water needs to be applied to the stone with each use. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great Field Sharpener *by M***I on November 21, 2019* This ceramic rod serves as a field sharpener in conjunction with a diamond rod and small leather strop.
