How To Use A Belt Grinder For Knife Making When you start applying pressure to shape your blade, the last thing you want is for the machine to move. Machines that aren’t completely stable can make it very difficult to create precise shapes. Built-into this device is an adjustable eye shield to add an extra layer of protection against shrapnel. Unfortunately, it’s only for the grinder. But since this has a true grinding wheel rather than the sanding wheel on most belt grinders, you’ll be able to use it as a round grinding surface when making knives.

We supply a wide range of sanding belts for metals. The Cibo Ceramic belts are particularly suited to aggressive sanding & grinding. If you are on a budget, I wouldn’t buy anything smaller than a 2″x48″ belt grinder. These tend to be a few hundred dollars cheaper, and are a good starting point if you are not sure if you want to make the investment in a good grinder. Although many people have started on smaller grinders than a 2″x48″ belt grinder, I wouldn’t recommend it, as you will just replace your weak small one after 3 knives anyways as they are not very good for the task. The value of this belt sander is expanded with many extra functions, such as a sanding disc with a miter gauge and a removable belt platen.

The most important specifications to account for when shopping for a belt grinder are variations in the belt and motor. These factors will determine the accuracy, efficiency, and durability of any machine. While there is a certain industry standard for these elements, professional-level features will often result in a higher price tag. Therefore, buyers should consider their workload and what is needed for their projects. Belt Sizes

Our two most popular zirconium oxide (zirconia) sanding belts would be HZ72 and TZ59 materials. both are available from 24 grit up to 120 grit. There are also belts that have their abrasive materials glued onto the belt in little piles that can continue to cut effectively as the abrasive material is grinded off. These belts are said to have structured abrasives. Structured abrasives are often made of AO or aluminum oxide, but this is not always the case. Belts made out of structured AO will last longer than unstructured AO. Surface grinding attachments are used for cleaning and smoothing down rough edges on flat surfaces.
