THE WHY!
"SHARP KNIVES MATTER"
​​With over 40 years of experience dedicated to the art and science of sharpening, Tormek® of Sweden has developed a new knife sharpener designed to meet the professional kitchen's demand for sharpness and user-friendliness. Sharp cutlery available on-demand whenever it is needed most.
Here is the simple math that demonstrates why a Tormek T-2 is right for your restaurant.
-
Replaces your current knife sharpening service. These services, on average, cost $40-$50 per month, and the edges of these knives don't stay sharp and are dull in days. $50.00 X 12=$600.00 multiply this for 7 years, and you have spent $4200.00
-
Sharp knives improve cuts and product shelf life. Restaurants waste an average of $50.00 a day on same-day prep items such as tomatoes, herbs, peppers. Sharp knife cuts create less oxidation than dull knife cuts and can add an extra day of shelf life to your mis-en-place.
-
Reduce Workmen's Comp. claims. For example, people get cut on dull knives at a much high rate than sharp knives.
-
One workmen's comp claim can result in thousands of dollars and lost employee workdays, compounding an already tight labor market.
-
The Tormek T-2 has an 8-year warranty and will pay for itself in less than a year!
