Superior durability and higher serviceability is evident when you take a look at the heavy-duty knives that take up our entire cutting chamber.

Each knife profile and configuration are designed by our engineers to suit the application, allowing for maximized throughput and optimized shred size. These knives are tough enough to rip through steel, wood, metal, and so much more.
