Tormek Swedish Red T-1 Kitchen Knife Sharpener is the first true knife sharpener designed specifically for the home chef. Unlike simpler sharpeners or honing steels that only touch the outer edge, this sharpener hones the entire bevel of the knife, giving you professional-level sharpness in minutes right in your own kitchen. It features a fine-grained diamond grinding wheel that sharpens all types of steel and even ceramic knives with precision. You can set different edge angles on each side of the blade or sharpen just one side, making it i for advanced knives. Between sharpenings, maintain your blade’s edge easily with the composite honing wheel, which includes a polishing agent for a razor-sharp finish. The T-1 removes minimal material, preventing unnecessary blade wear, and it operates quietly at just 45 dB without overheating your knives. Built with a powder-coated zinc housing and a sturdy oak handle, this sharpener combines durability with style. It works with knives that have blades 0.5 to 2.4 inches wide, up to 0.2 inches thick, and of any length. With an 8-year warranty (5 years plus 3 extra with registration), the Tormek T-1 is a reliable and innovative tool that will quickly become your favorite kitchen gadget. Model Number: T-1 REB/NA
