Forged Cutlery Honing Tool Question. Help!

[musicalglow]

My friend has a set of Rachel Ray knives and was wondering if she could buy the Pampered Chef honing tool for her RR knives. Thanks!

wel,, they say that it's only supposed to be for our knives...but I have used it on my kitchenaid Santoku just fine...

The way it was explained to me is this....

When you use the long rod that hones tools you have to get the angle just right each time. So that is the beauty of our honing tool, the little white rods are positioned in the exact spot we need them for our knives. They might not be exactly right for a different brand.

If you have a type of knife that is only beveled for sharpness on one side, then you don't want to use our honer. Also, if you have those "ever sharp" knives, you can't use it on them either...but I have used our honer on many types of knives and it works great.
