cleaning ceramic rods, a comment for Mark Reich

[Ken S]

I recently read a post by Mark Reich recommending Barkeeper's Friend cleaner. I bought a can and just tried it. I applied a little on a Scotch-Brite pad and worked on my two ceramic rods. One was a gift from Steve Bottorff originally from Smoky Mountain Knife Works. The other is an M3 I am testing for for Work Sharp Culiary. Both work very well, but eventually acquire the inevitable worn steel deposits.

In the past, I had good results removing the majority of this leftover steel with Soft Scrub and Scotch-Brite. The Barkeeper's friend got it all! 

Thanks for the tip, Mark.
