Tormek T2 Pro Kitchen Knife Sharpener

New! Revised Guide Clip, 8 Year Warranty The new Edition of the Tormek T-2 Pro Kitchen Knife Sharpener has a redesign guide clip that is lined so it won't mar knives, and it will accept larger knives than the original model too! Tormek has also given the T-2 an 8 year warranty, 5 years on purchase plus 3 years on registration. Same Tormek Performance in a Specialized Tool The Tormek T2 Knife Sharpener is designed to meet the professional kitchen's need for efficient workflow and effective sharpening. The diamond wheel optimized for knife sharpening combined with an adjustable angle guide makes it easy to achieve professional quality sharpening, right where and when it is needed. Professional kitchens demand the best ingredients and tools. Why compromise on sharpening? Fast, Easy Sharpening with the Angle Guide The T2 has the adjustability and accuracy you expect from Tormek, without separate jigs. The Angle Guide is easy to mount to the Guide Bar and can be quickly set for angles of 8 - 22 degrees. Position a knife in the guide and lower it onto the moving wheel. Slide the blade evenly over the diamond grinding wheel with light pressure. Follow the shape of the knife to maintain contact. If you are sharpening to the same angle as the knife had previously, only a few swipes are required on each side. The T2 can accommodate knives 14 - 60 mm (5/16" - 2-3/8") wide, and up to 3.5 mm (3/16") thick and it includes a removable magnet for capturing swarf. And now the guide clip is lined to prevent scratching knife blades! Slow-Speed Dry Sharpening Tormek is known for their water-cooled grinders, but the T2 is used dry. No water to splash around. The slow speed ensures that your steel will not over heat. The wheel itself can be cleaned with soapy water and a nylon brush as needed. Pre-Loaded Honing Wheel In another innovation that streamlines use, the Honing Wheel on the T2 is a composite material with the polishing abrasive right in it. No need to load the wheel with honing compound. Tormek's Quality Guarantee For those that understand quality and versatility, there is no substitute to Tormek quality.
