How to sharpen correctly with a ceramic sharpening rod, also known as a sharpening rod, sharpening stick, knife sharpener or ceramic sharpening steel:
Place the knife blade on the tip of the sharpening rod. The angle between the knife blade and the sharpening rod should always be around 20 degrees.
Now pull the knife downwards on the sharpening rod in a slight arc. Starting from the tip of the knife blade to the end of the blade. The speed of your movement does not matter here, what is important is the angle of 20 degrees.
Repeat this movement on the back of the ceramic to sharpen the other side of the knife blade.
Repeat steps 2 and 3 a few times, alternating between sharpening the front and rear side of the knife blade.
