Pretty awesome offer that I want to let you guys in on.


So, I'm sure you guys know me as the WET Saw guy, and I have a few youtube videos of me cutting on this system. I'm sure a lot of you guys think, it's too good to be true. Or maybe, you have done things for 25 years the same, so why should you look into something different? Well, for $300 dollars, I think it's worth looking into.

What is a wet saw system? Well, it's not an entire saw, but it makes your saw feel entirely different. The Kleen Kut saw system is a small white box that sprays culinary water onto the saw blade. This piece replaces where one of your blade scrapers are on your Hobart Saw. How fast can you hook one of them up? 30 minutes. I've installed some, and it takes minutes on a Hobart 5801 saw.

Honestly, I can tell you that no matter who you are or your situation, you'll benefit from it. I own my own wet saw system, and I treat it as if it is own of my own tools for my daily job. Anyone that has used one knows that they are irreplaceable, and they entirely change your working environment. 

Take a look at it, www.cleanermeats.com .

 

Any questions, let me know. If you want any type of video examples, I'll be happy to take some video shots for you guys. You can find some of my demo videos on Youtube.com.

Looks good to me.  I used to especially hate pork sales, except when using a power cleaver.

It looks awesome, most cutters don't scrape much any more anyway in NC, at least. Certainly not both sides and many cut into the tray and just scrape (skim) the top.

I can honestly say I don't hate cutting anything. Ha ha. We can run any type of ad, and honestly, I'm not scared. Boneless saw blades can slice as thin as slicers with this on there. I know plenty of you guys that are probably like me, and you probably HATE cleaning your meat slicer after slicing a chuck roast. I use to despise that request with all my heart. Now, I throw it on the saw, turn the water on, and slice it thin for carne asada. It's not a big deal at all. Takes nearly half the time too using your hips rather than thrusting it through a dry slicer blade. There's a lot of uses for this thing other than just bone dust.

Also, I'm sure some guys don't scrape and leave **** on their steaks, but let's face it. Bone dust contains bacteria, and I'm sure it doesn't help shelf life either. It's nice to take something straight from the saw and into the tray. Plus, the product isn't all torn up. It's win in every situation that I've used it. YOu do lose saw speed because you can't rip it through like the draw blade because it will leave some dust, but honestly, with the step of scraping gone, it turns out to be faster.

Does this system have any benefits when used while cutting frozen products? (ex. Tripe, beef feet) Extends blade life?

Reduces loss?

That's a great question. 

 

I've cut a few things frozen on this system, and the biggest thing that I noticed is that nothing tends to spin. You know how sometimes you'll get friction, and the saw blade will pull the meat down which is DANGEROUS. Ha, I've had that happen a ton of times in the past. I can tell you, that friction is gone, so you don't notice anything spinning or becoming dangerous. I have noticed though that water will tend to shoot up from the piece of Frozen meat since water is still on the blade.

 

As for waste, I would say that it definitely helps lower waste due to less rigid cuts and lack of door stops. You know how you have that last steak on a bone in saw, and it tends to grab it and pull it down into the guide? Well, that's completely eliminated. I cut with all my bones down against the panel, and I'm sure a lot of you guys don't do that since you're more likely to get a wedge forming or a door stop at the end. With the water on the saw blade, it no longer causes that to happen.

 

As for the saw blade life, I've noticed that saw blades don't seem to feel as "dull" as when they are on a dry blade. It all comes back to the friction and water. Without as much friction, the blade doesn't get as hot, and with the lubrication it doesn't drag as much as a dry blade.

 

 

It's really hard to explain, guys, because you have to use it to actually understand it. I can tell you that one of our highest increasing meat department's use two wet saws (Bone in and boneless). He's able to produce more at a faster rate, and his quality image still remains. I asked him to honestly tell me if he could handle it without both of his wet saws, and he said it would definitely make a huge difference for him in a NEGATIVE way.

I know what you mean by the pitfalls of using a dry saw. I've experienced the pull downs, spinners, wedges, and door stoppers too.


Neither of the stores that I've worked in were laid out with easy access to water intake from the saw so I guess they'd have to run it suspended overhead. We've got 2 tables of 4 slab white plastic blocks, a saw in the middle, meat tenderizer, and not much room for anything else.

I assume that the blades for boneless cutting have a bevel for kerf-less cutting. Around the holidays the scrap pan gets full of dust from hams getting sliced thin on the dry saw. The video shows cutting patties with a boning knife so you won't get good cuts like you get with a good breaking knife.
I don't think it would save time over hand cutting across the board, but definitely better cuts on your larger beef roasts especially the lean soggy zero-fat wet aged cryovac stuff. The meat packers don't leave or cattle breed do not have much presentable fat on a primal, just ugly wet fat and membrane waste. Why does everybody want super lean over-trimmed meat?

Sadly, I keep getting a 403 Forbidden page for kleenkutinc, hydrosaw, and cleanermeats.com
If I could get one installed in my company for a trial, maybe they could be company wide if they were beneficial enough.
But; Even If I I could, how am I supposed to get in touch with a Kleen Kut representative?

Sorry about their website. Cal, the founder and designer of the kleen kut hasn't been able to get ahold of their webmaster to fix the website. However, I asked him permission for his cell phone number, and he said you can reach him at 801-739-1382 .

Thanks, Leon and Shawn.
I'll see what my supervisor thinks and give Cal a call.
