We offer a line of knives, everlasting knives and double-edged multi-stage grinding knives to suit your purposes.

Knives for enterprises

As cutting with single-stage grinding results in long and fibrous forms compared to multi-stage grinding (multi-stage grinding), an additional coarse grinding process becomes necessary when finely ground result is desired. As this process reduces kneading and temperature rise, it is less stressful to the meat.
Everlasting plate knife

An enterprise-use single-edged knife for compact machines and minimum-load raw-meat processing.
The knife edge stays sharp as the hole plate is in close contact with the edge and the knife grinds itself due to rotation.
Double-edged knife for multi-stage grinding

Used mainly as a knife for multi-stage grinding.
(Also possible for single-stage grinding)
Comes in single-edged or double-edged.
Meat is ground finely in a single operation of multi-stage grinding, but compared to single-stage grinding, the multi-stage grinding tends to generate more kneading and temperature rise of the meat.
