Global ceramic sharpening rod

With the round ceramic sharpening rod from Global, you will always get the necessary sharpness for your kitchen knives. The advantage of ceramic rods is that they are ideally designed for high-quality Japanese knives https://www.kochen-essen-wohnen.de/japanische-messer.html and good German knives. They are not too coarse and allow fine sharpening of blades with a higher blade hardness. For example, the Japanese knives from Global https://www.kochen-essen-wohnen.de/profi-kuechenmesser, those from the Kai Wasabi Black https://www.kochen-essen-wohnen.de/wasabi-black-kochmesser.html knife series and other knives that are not too hard can be sharpened with the sharpening rod.

The Global sharpening rods are manufactured exclusively by Kyocera. They are particularly hard, but they are sensitive to impact. The handles are made of stainless steel. There is a hard rubber hand guard between the blade and the handle. The hard rubber protects you from injury. In addition, the high-quality hard rubber prevents the knife blade from being damaged in the event of accidental contact with the hand guard.

To keep Japanese knives and most Damascus knives sharp, an angle of 15 degrees should be maintained when sharpening. Knives with a European grind are sharpened with a grinding angle of about 20 degrees. The last 2 to 5 honings should be done in the opposite direction to the previous sharpening to remove the burr from the edge.

When selecting a sharpening rod, care should be taken to ensure that it is at least as long as the longest knife to be sharpened. The Global sharpening rod is suitable for knives up to 22 cm long.

Through use, the ceramic becomes clogged with metal abrasion. This can be easily removed with the rough side of a dishwashing sponge. It is best to remove the metal abrasion after 10 sharpening processes at the latest so that the ceramic of the sharpening rod can sharpen optimally.
 

2. Global Messer Minosharp knife sharpener 440BR

Global Minosharp Plus black/red, made in Japan. This sharpener consists of two ceramic wheels: the white wheel is coarse, and the red wheel is medium, completing the sharpening process. Because the sharpening slot and the ceramic wheel are positioned at a precise angle, it is possible to achieve razor-sharp edges on knives. This sharpener is not suitable for blades that are single-edged or serrated. The revolutionary design by designer Komin Yamada was registered by the manufacturer Yoshikin in 1985. With its seamless finish, the knives are hygienic, as there is no possibility for bacteria to form. Global knives have a 15-17 degree angle. For this reason, they maintain their sharpness longer than a traditional European knife, which has an angle of 20-22 degrees. When using the water sharpener, you need to make 15 to 20 movements on each sharpening wheel. You sharpen the knife from the tip to the edge and back in a smooth motion. The knife can only be sharpened on a ceramic honing steel or a diamond sharpener. Global knives - Global Minosharp Plus black/red.
