Tormek T-1 Kitchen Knife Sharpener - Ash Green

Great product, very effective, takes some technique. I recommend reading everything and watching the YouTube videos. Not noisy which I was surprised at. So nice having sharp knives again! I use Global knives which have 18 degree edge. Also manage to sharpen the Chinese Chopper. Very pleased with it.

I didn't realise my knives were so blunt. Now razor sharp. The honing wheel does a good job but use a leather strop and compound and they will be razor sharp.

The sharpening function is amazing, cleaning the magnet was tricky. Biggest disappointment was the felt guide pad became detached after just a few uses. There is a spare but rather annoying it came off so quickly, spare ones are relatively expensive for a sticky felt pad.

Knives are functioning brilliantly now. I was concerned it might be too technical for me, but I need not have worried as it was all super easy. Just got it out the box and it was ready to go. It’s very easy to use and wonderfully sharp knives are achieved in minutes. It looks really nice on my kitchen counter top too. I love the ash green colour, it’s super stylish. Highly recommend.

Today I am treveling aroand among friends with my new friend Tormak T-1.
I do the sharpening and am offered as much beer as I want 🤓😇

God morgon. This will happen at any time, but it will automatically overturn. Tack Sébastien för dina video lektioner på YouTube på english. The super interesting thing is that you might find yourself in a T-8 mask where you can hit it. Tyvärr har jag ingen användning för det. Jag har bara några få knivar i mitt kök. Men jag hatar att äta och laga mat med knivar som inte skär bra. Please invest in T-1. Jag är mycket nöjd med mitt köp.

Det är ett väldigt vackert föremål som passar perfekt in i mitt kök utan att förvara det i ett skåp. Jag har nu alltid T-1 tillgänglig på min arbetsyta för att alltid ha mina blad perfekt slipade. It's just a little bit of a Japanese story, so it's going to be a little bit different, so it's just a little bit different. Ett stort tack och grattis till hela Tormek-teamet.
Good morning. Thank you Sébastien for your video lessons on YouTube in French. They are super interesting and make me want to buy a T-8 machine and sharpen everything I can find. Unfortunately, I have no use for it. I only have a few knives in my kitchen. But, I hate eating and cooking with knives that don't cut well. So I invested in your T-1. I am very satisfied with my purchase.
It's a very beautiful object that fits perfectly into my kitchen without storing it in a cupboard. I now always have the T-1 available on my work surface to always have my blades perfectly sharpened. So I put my old Japanese water stones, which were tedious to use, in the back of my cupboard. A big thank you and congratulations to the entire Tormek team.

Sehr solide Verarbeitet , precise Einstellungsmöglichkeiten, messerscharfe Ergebnisse.
Funktioniert wie es soll.

This sharpener is compact and extremely precise. it works wonderfully. This is the best electric sharpener I have used!

This sharpener is compact and extremely precise. il fonctionne à merveille. c’est le meilleur aguiseur électrique que jai utilisés!

Easy to get started.
It has been allowed to take the T-8's place in the kitchen

#tormekt1 es gibt besseres, würde ich nicht mehr kaufen, austeeren es gibt jetzt ein Kochbuch dazu, schade eine Woche zu bald käkuft.

I am satisfied, the knives are getting sharp. But I think the brow wheel wears out too quickly. I'm also a little disappointed with the casting of the chassis. See picture.

Easy to use and the result was razor sharp🔪😁

Best ever, never have such sharp knives before!

Oh man... what can you say? After three days the part was on the table in front of me. Solidly packaged and very well made.
Sharpening larger knives is like child's hands, only sharpening them on the compound disc requires a bit of sensitivity. I've sharpened all of my cheap kitchen knives for practice and I'm more than thrilled. Precise results with every knife. I can only warmly recommend the T1 to every ambitious hobby chef.

Easy to use, had sharpened the first knife within 10 min of unboxing! Look at Tormek's grinding school on youtube, really good, there is one specifically for T-1

After many years with different sharpening tools that do not keep what they promise and in the worst case destroy the knife, Japanese wet whetstones where you have to have time, feeling and interest to get good at, our T1 finally came home to us.
After about an hour, the first plaster came off on a finger and soon 3 out of 4 people in the household were walking around with Tormek plasters.
Sharpening our knives has never been so easy and done with such precision before in this household.
No, it won't be the same finish as after half an hour polishing on a Japanese wet stone with 8000 Grit, but you will have a very sharp knife with a precise edge in a minute or two and it will be a joy to work with the raw materials with precision.
If you want to make sharpening your knives a non-problem, get yourself a T1.

Cons.
A few more patches could have been sent with the T1.
Everyone in the family has become a little more afraid of our Usuba.

Very easy to use and always sharp knives. The son is a trained chef, he is our grinding manager. He thinks the grinder is fantastic.

Excellent design crossing the bridge between commercial utility and home aesthetics

I tried the T-1 for the first time today. It feels solid, looks good and oozes quality. I found it a bit fiddly at first, but once I got used to the actions required and sharpened a few knives it became easier with familiarity. The sharpener is not cheap at around £350, so would I buy one? Not sure, but I won mine so I am extremely happy.

took me about 30 seconds to know how to use this knife sharpener as far as i am concerened it is the best i have ever used I now have very sharp knives and is so simple to use thank you tormak for a great product

Straightforward to use and very effective. My 30 year old Sabatier Lion knives were very dull to the point I was considering replacing them.

Having read the reviews I decided to invest in the Tormec T1 and am very satisfied with the results. Each dull knife took about 15 mins to completely sharpen and hone to as new condition.

A really worthwhile investment.

really great bit of kit but needs a little practice to get the hang of it. My kitchen knives haven't been so sharp since they were new!
