PDT (Poltava) CBN Fine Honing Rod
A high-precision honing rod designed for fast, reliable edge maintenance on kitchen, outdoor, and professional knives. Manufactured by Poltava Diamond Tools (PDTools) in Ukraine, this tool uses a galvanic electroplated bond: CBN crystals are anchored in a durable nickel layer, ensuring long service life and consistent performance.
Unlike traditional steels, this honing rod works as a true abrasive finisher, restoring bite and alignment in just a few controlled passes — without removing unnecessary metal.
