F. Dick RS-150 Duo Knife Sharpening Machine

The RS-150 Duo sharpens and hones on one compact machine, with diamond wheels to set the edge and hard ceramic wheels to smooth it. It is made for restaurants, butcher shops and commercial kitchens that want sharp knives without sending them out.

The optimum sharpening angle is already set, so there is nothing to adjust and any staff member can get the same result. The wheels turn slowly, which keeps the blade from heating up while it is ground. F. Dick also points to a lower risk of work injuries during sharpening.

It sits on a counter and takes up little space in a prep area.

For grinding and polishing full blades, including machine knives, the F. Dick SM-100 belt grinder is the larger machine. Between sharpenings, a guided hand unit such as the Master Steel HyperDrill II or a steel such as the EuroCut 12-inch Round Regular Cut Steel keeps the edge aligned.
