If You own a restaurant, manage a restaurant, or work in the kitchen at a restaurant, then you are likely intimately familiar with the use of knives in your work. From the time you open, until you close, knives are used for prepping, cooking, and portioning food. That also adds up to a lot of wear on your knives and the constant need to sharpen or replace them, both of which can be costly solutions. That is also where the idea, as the attached video highlights, of knife exchange programs, can prove to be beneficial in many ways.
On the practical side of the equation, knife exchange programs are a great way to ensure that your kitchen, cooks, and chefs all have the best equipment to work with, namely good knives and sharp blades. On the financial side of the equation, there is a considerable expense for replacing your knives every time you need new ones.
It also requires labor (and labor hours) to sharpen those knives, which also makes knife exchange programs a viable option from the cost perspective as well. If you have a restaurant, and you are looking for a cost-effective and practical way to keep your kitchen and staff equipped with good knives, then a knife exchange program could be a cut above other solutions.
