Grinder blades

[samspade]

Is there any difference between meat grinder knives that are 4 bladed curved or 4 bladed straight

samspade Yeah, the straight ones are generally more for commercial or higher end. They also are often able to be sharpened when they are dull by sending them in to us or another company with the necessary equipment. The curved ones, or propellers as I like to call them, are not sharpenable and they have a totally “flat” blade. The straight ones will have the leading edge sharp but then it angles away so only the leading edge of the blade comes into contact with the plate, meaning a little less wear and tear.

Jonathon I knew there had to be a good reason. Thanks
