																	But although these knives do not require frequent sharpening due to a long period of operation or due to improper use sooner or later there is a problem how to sharpen a ceramic knife. 
																	Manual sharpening rods may be less convenient than electric knife sharpeners but some of them may be up to the task of sharpening a ceramic knife. 
																	A while back i received a question that asked about the best way to sharpen stainless steel knives a common problem especially considering how much easier it is to sharpen carbon steel than stainless steel well it seems a lot of you benefited from that article and as a result i thought it d be a good idea to do a very similar article detailing how one can sharpen ceramic blade knives. 
																	The good news is that ceramic knives don t need to be sharpened as often as steel knives. 
															
													
									
	
		
	
																	If you like to use a sharpening rod make sure that it s made of diamond steel like the dmt d2sf 12 inch diamond steel sharpening rod. 
																	This is a battery powered device which features a diamond grinding stone capable of removing up to 0 5 millimeter nicks. 
																	The bad news is that it s very difficult and or expensive to do so.
