This All-Star Approved Knife Sharpener is Under $30

When we asked Allrecipes Allstars what their most important kitchen tool was, they unanimously answered, “A good knife.” The reliable blade can slice, dice, cut and chop all kinds of ingredients, helping you create memorable dishes.

To get the most out of your knife, it needs a little TLC. All-star Lindsey Close, a professionally trained chef, takes care of her knives. She recommends sharpening your blades weekly to prevent them from becoming dull too quickly. (She also says you should have it professionally sharpened up to four times a year).

Sharpening a knife means maintaining its sharpness. Running the knife along the honing rod keeps the cutting edge smooth and aligned, allowing you to cut the food properly. Regular sharpening will extend the life of your knife and make it much easier to prepare for cooking. Are you ready to take your knife care to the next level? Check out our limited time sale of honing rods.
