INTRODUCING THE NEW TORMEK T-1 KITCHEN KNIFE SHARPENER<\/strong><\/p>\n

– Professional Cutting-Edge Sharpness at Home –<\/strong><\/p>\n

Top chefs will tell you that knife maintenance is one of the most important tasks in a professional
\nkitchen. And the same applies at home. There\u2019s no point in having excellent knives if you\u2019re not going
\nto invest in their upkeep.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

SHARPNESS, SIMPLICITY AND SPEED<\/strong><\/p>\n

Many conventional methods do not sharpen the knife properly but align a weighted edge or sharpen
\nonly parts of the edge. That\u2019s fine for basic maintenance, but after a while you’ll notice that you’re
\nnot getting the same sharpness as before.<\/p>\n

THE FIRST REAL KNIFE SHARPENER FOR THE HOME CHEF<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Tormek has 50 years of expertise in tool sharpening for woodworkers. The NEW Tormek T-1
\nKitchen Knife Sharpener is the first professional, premium quality kitchen knife sharpener for
\nthe home. Quick, easy, clean and quiet, it precisely sharpens blades 12 – 60mm high and up to
\n5mm thick, with unlimited length. Based on the innovative sharpening system developed for
\nprofessional kitchens, the Tormek T-1 Kitchen Knife Sharpener effortlessly delivers a razor-sharp
\ncutting edge and a durable angle that won\u2019t dull after every use.<\/p>\n

BLADES STAY SHARPER FOR LONGER<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The Tormek T-1 Kitchen Knife Sharpener has a sleek industrial design and comes fully
\nassembled with a solid oak handle, powder-coated zinc body, diamond grinding wheel and
\ncomposite honing wheel. The method consists of three steps:<\/p>\n

SET PREFERRED BEVEL ANGLE<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

You can choose any angle between 8 and 22 degrees. However, 15 degrees is a good angle
\nto start with if you are unsure. A small angle will cut more easily, while a large angle will
\ngive a stronger edge.<\/p>\n

SHARPEN ON BOTH SIDES<\/strong><\/p>\n

The fine-grained diamond grinding wheel sharpens all types of steel including ceramic
\nknives – to professional sharpness. The low-speed means that there\u2019s minimal steel wear.
\nInsert the clean, dry knife into the guide. Follow the shape of the knife and apply only a
\ngentle pressure. A magnet in the patented guide collects the steel particles keeping the
\ngrinding wheel clean.<\/p>\n

HONE TO AN EXPERT, RAZOR-SHARP FINISH<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Moisten the honing wheel using a damp paper towel to reduce friction and remove the burr*
\nand polish both sides of the knife on the honing wheel. Ensure the honing wheel rotates
\naway from the edge.
\n* After sharpening, a \u2018burr\u2019 is created which needs to be honed off to obtain a sharp and
\ndurable edge.
\nUnlike some alternatives, the Tormek T-1 sharpens the entire bevel of the knife, not just the outer
\nedge, and because the bevels can be sharpened separately, there\u2019s the option to set different edge
\nangles on each side of the blade, or sharpen just one side, which is particularly useful for more
\nadvanced knives.<\/p>\n

SHARPEN LIKE A PRO<\/strong><\/p>\n

Built to last, with an 8-year warranty, store safely in a dry place.
\nWhether you\u2019re looking for the perfect knife sharpener for yourself or on the hunt for the ideal gift for
\na foodie friend or family member, the NEW Tormek T-1 Kitchen Knife Sharpener (RRP \u00a3330), is
\navailable from shop.tormek.com\/en-gb<\/p>\n
