Engineered with the same precision and bold character that defines our Hokkan knives, the Hokkan 8" Honing Rod is a versatile tool designed to keep any knife in your collection performing at its peak. Regular honing realigns your blade’s edge between uses, helping your knives stay sharper longer — so every cut, slice, and chop feels as smooth as the first.
With an 8-inch rod and a total length of 12.6 inches, it offers the perfect balance of reach and control for both home chefs and professionals. The polished bolster and subtle herringbone detailing add a modern, refined touch while ensuring a comfortable, confident grip during honing.
The handle is crafted from durable, deep-grain black Pakka wood and features the Hokkan Series’ signature double steelhead, two rivets, and a striking mosaic plum nail. Its ergonomic design fits naturally in the hand — whether you're left- or right-handed — offering stability and ease with every use.
Optimized at a 16-degree honing angle, this rod is ideal for maintaining the factory edge of Hokkan blades, while also working seamlessly with most other high-quality kitchen knives.
While it’s a standout piece in the Hokkan Series, the 8" Honing Rod pairs effortlessly with any blade in your lineup — from the Hokkan 8" Chef’s Knife to your everyday go-to.
