1. Why is the Model 110 recommended for commercial use?
The Model 110 will perform well in smaller, light duty commercial kitchens because of the high quality motor and 100% diamonds, which will last for several years without need for repair or replacement when used properly. The 3-stage design provides straight-edge knives with the world acclaimed Trizor® edge.

3. Will the Chef'sChoice Model 110 cause excessive wear to my knives?
No. Ninety-eight percent of your sharpening takes place in Stages 2 and 3. The diamonds in these stages are very fine and only remove micro-amounts of metal.
