OWNING VS
RENTING
Why owning is the only way
Greatly reduced direct costs vs. rental services • First year - knives plus honer and sharpener are paid for within 6+/- months • Second year - the paycheck period is a matter of weeks • Replacement costs of owned knives are much less than the replacement fees of leased knives
Bottom line - BETTER STEEL = BETTER EDGES
Easily restore edges through regular honing and periodic sharpening
Increased efficiencies among all stations along the line • Sharper knives perform better and more efficiently
Decreased food costs due to more precise prep and slicing via sharper edges • Bread slices vs. croutons - Tomato slices vs. tomato sauce - Standing rib slices vs. hash pieces
Loss prevention/safety department approach • Proven and enhanced safety record • Sharper knives cause fewer injuries • Ergonomic handles afford more comfort and reduced carpal tunnel fatigue
Higher level of pride and care • Investing in quality products so staff can work more efficiently with less effort
Reduced time loss due to weekly pick-up “social hour” by sharpening service
