How to identify when a knife needs sharpening
“You can easily tell if a knife needs sharpening by how much pressure you need to cut ingredients. If a knife is dull, you tend to have to apply more pressure. A sharp knife cuts cleanly through ingredients, preserving their quality and appearance, which is particularly important for delicate items such as herbs and vegetables. Also, the sharper the knife, the safer it is. If you’re having to press down hard onto a vegetable with a blunt knife there’s increased risk of the blade slipping and causing injury.”

Built to Last
The Tormek T-1 comes with an 8-year warranty. Store it safely in a dry place and enjoy consistently sharp knives for years to come.
