A new knife-sharpening DVD, featuring Silver Fern Farms’ knife tutor Alex Tuhi (above),  has been developed by NZITO and distributed to all meat companies. Carl Ammon describes it as a best practice package to help staff and companies improve yield and reduce risk and accidents. He says companies that have monitored the system and used it consistently, “report significant savings in equipment, and reduced injury, and staff have been positive about the improved performance of knives.” A copy of the DVD is available on request from NZITO.
