dont know how you keep your grind line sharp and clean like that but i wish i did.! very nice !!!

Decided to try my hand at "grinding" a bevel on a 1x30 belt sander tonight.

Nice.

how did you like the by sander compared to using files? The grind looks good.

 

[Gamez235]

For me, the sander is less precise. Way larger margin of error, you can take that little bit too much a lot easier. It is faster, and I am sure after a few more I will be much more confident at it. That said, for a first crack at it I will take the result.

You could do the bulk of the stock removal with your belt grinder, then finish with your files and jig and get the best of both worlds until you are more comfortable with your belt grinder skills.

Nice work, by the way.

Very nice and clean knives !! Is that a scotch-brite belt? if so, is that the corse or medium? That is the line pattern I have been looking for
but haven't bought a belt for my 1x30. I still do mine by hand.

120 belts gets the lines pattern, medium scotch brite blends it together.
