This leather sheath has a visible stain, as shown in the photo.
The Leather Sheath for Rods is a simple, practical accessory designed to protect your ceramic or steel honing rod during storage and transport. This sheath fits the CKTG Ceramic Rod, the MAC SRB-104, and both Idahone Ceramic rods (10 in and 12 in), along with most other standard round honing rods on our site.
Ceramic rods in particular can be prone to chipping or breaking if bumped or dropped, and this leather sheath provides a durable layer of protection to help extend the life of your sharpening tools. It’s a great option for cooks who travel with their gear or keep rods in knife rolls or drawers where they may come into contact with other tools.
In addition to protection, this leather sheath offers a unique secondary use that many people overlook. When the rod is inside the sheath, it creates a firm, supported surface that can be used as a strop. By using light, edge-trailing strokes along the leather, you can refine and maintain your edge between sharpenings. This makes it a handy two-in-one tool for both transport and quick touch-ups in the kitchen.
Care Instructions: Keep dry when not in use. If the leather becomes wet, allow it to air dry completely. Occasional conditioning with leather balm will help maintain flexibility and longevity.
