Ceramic rods are something new to me. Of course I've heard of them, but I've never used them myself. I have an old Lansky my Dad left me, and I've used it for 10 years.Have you used them (the rods) enough to recommend one?
Sure. If I have my Sharpmaker handy, I use one of those rods. But the easiest is the Gatco Tri-Seps. Practically the same as the Sharpmaker rods except it is shorter -- pocketsize -- and it has rubber bumpers on each end to make it easier to hold.
You can also use it for its primary purpose of touching up an edge.
Lansky also makes a dogbone sharpener and I imagine there are others on the market.
Hey Joe Dirt, did you try that thumb stud method yet? I find it quite satisfying to open the knife that way. And To Thomas, any comments on the "easy open notch?
waynorth, truthfully I like your "easy open notch"....a lot. Personally, I don't have an issue opening the Leek with the thumb studs, but maybe that is because I open them all day. I can see how the "notch" could assist when using the thumb stud to open the blade. Real nice addition to the Leek IMHO.
