Sharpen your kitchen Knives with a sharpening steel. It's also called a sharpening rod, aka honing steel. Really, this tool is to maintain the knife's edge. A chef who uses knives all day may need to use a steel to align knives edges a few times a day. When you find that your knife has to be forced through a cut, it's time to fix the edge. Unless the edge is really dulled, a smooth honing rod or a steel will quickly make for a sharp edge.
