Imperial Sharpening Steel — Emery Rod with Smooth Pakkawood Handle
Keep your finest knives performing at their best with the SENKEN Imperial Sharpening Steel. Its emery sharpening rod restores a sharp cutting edge, while a smooth pakkawood handle provides comfort and control with every stroke.
Designed for even the hardest kitchen knives, including Damascus steel knives, the abrasive emery surface helps maintain a keen, consistent edge.
The polished pakkawood handle features rich wood tones and a triple-riveted design that complements the Imperial Knife Collection. Its contoured shape supports a firm, comfortable grip for steady, controlled sharpening.
A protective hand guard helps keep your hand separated from the blade, while the sturdy construction supports confident handling during use.
Includes a luxury gift box for presentation and storage.
How to Use
- Place the tip of the rod on a stable, non-slip surface. Hold it upright with light downward pressure.
- Position the heel of the knife against the top of the rod at the knife’s recommended edge angle.
- Draw the blade down the rod from heel to tip using light pressure. Repeat 2–3 times on each side, maintaining a consistent angle.
- Rinse the knife and dry thoroughly after use. Clean the rod with a soft, non-abrasive brush.
