Just as important as the knife you choose, is the method of sharpening. ALL KNIVES will blunt. Even so called 'Stay Sharp Forever' knives.

The hardness of the steel determines the length of time before it becomes dull. Total Knife Care offers 2 award winning electric knife sharpening machines to suit everyone from the frustrated amateur chef to companies offering a knife sharpening service.

Whether you are a keen amateur, professional knife user or based in a commercial establishment, Nirey knife sharpeners have the machine to suit your need and budget. Be assured that both sharpeners are 'Best in Class' and have won awards around the globe.

All Nirey electric knife sharpening machines use aluminium-oxide abrasives. Aluminium-oxide is extremely hard for long lasting qualities. Even more important, it cuts cold meaning that little heat is generated when in contact with the knife steel. Less expensive silica based abrasives create considerable friction heat - with the dangers of reaching temperatures that could de-temper the knife steel.
