Kiwi brand knives from Thailand - I am going to give a set to some friends who use crap dull knives.
Question is, how do you maintain these things?
The friends in question are not going to be learning how to use a whetstone anytime soon.
My thinking is give them a leather strop for daily...
So, I talked to Jon, the owner of Japanese Knife Imports in california, and he told me that ceramic honing rods aren't good for your knife. I forget exactly why but he was pretty passionate about it and went into specifics that went over my head.
So my question is, what's the best way to touch...
