Cutting Sticks:

To get the maximum cutting performance of your knife, the right cutting stick.is needed, so please allow us to help you do that.  Selecting the proper stick will improve cut quality while extending knife life.  The wrong stick results in prematurely dull and nicked knives, as well as poor cut quality.

Our in stock cutting sticks are manufactured to very tight tolerances to ensure accurate fit and easy removal.  They are made from specially formulated thermoplastic compounds that results in the right balance of hardness and self healing characteristics.

Please contact us and together we can choose the correct combination of knife and cutting stick for your unique application.
