Are you sharpening your knife… or just straightening it? 🔪

Most people think a honing rod sharpens a knife.

It doesn’t.

A honing steel realigns the edge — it keeps your knife cutting smoothly between proper sharpenings. But if your blade is genuinely dull, honing won’t bring it back.

In our latest guide, we explain:

✔ What a honing rod actually does
✔ The correct 15–20° angle
✔ How many passes you really need
✔ When it’s time for proper sharpening

If your knife still slips on tomato skins after using the steel, it likely needs a true edge reset — not more honing.

Because honing maintains sharpness.
Sharpening restores it.

Most people think honing and sharpening are the same thing — they’re not.

Honing straightens a knife edge.
Sharpening creates a new one.

If honing no longer improves how your knife cuts, the edge is usually worn down, not misaligned. That’s when sharpening becomes necessary.

We’ve broken down the difference clearly in our latest blog so you know exactly what your knives need — and when maintenance alone is no longer enough.

ow often should you sharpen your knives? 🔪

If your knife struggles with tomatoes or needs pressure to cut, it’s already overdue.

Most South African homes should sharpen kitchen knives every 3–4 months for safe, effortless cooking – especially with regular meat prep and braais.

A sharp knife isn’t just better… it’s safer.

How sharp is your knife… really? 🔪

Most people only realise their knives are dull when something slips or food starts tearing instead of cutting.

We’ve just published a quick guide showing you how to do a proper knife sharpness test at home — including the thumbnail test professional sharpeners use to judge an edge.

If your knife:
• Slides on your thumbnail
• Tears paper
• Struggles with tomatoes

…it’s time for professional sharpening.

Your steak deserves a sharp knife. 🥩🔪
A blunt steak knife tears meat, loses juices, and ruins the texture — even on a perfectly cooked steak.
A sharp steak knife cuts clean, keeps the steak tender, and makes every bite better.

If your steak knives struggle on the plate, it’s time for a proper sharpen.
