The Pro Knife Sharpening System is the exact system that the pros at EdgeMasters use to sharpen thousands of knives through their mail-order knife sharpening business. The kit includes a 1” x 30” belt sander, 80, 600, 800, & 1,000 grit sanding belts, leather stropping belt, stropping compound, diamond file for serrated knives, safety glasses, and on-line instructional videos of how to properly sharpen your knife on a belt sander.
The procedure for using a belt sander is similar to any other sharpening. Most knives, you can start with the 600 grit and move your way up to the 1,000 grit before finishing with the stropping belt and polishing compound. With this type of sharpening, you always move the belt away from the cutting edge instead of cutting into the motion of the belt. The sharpener puts a convex edge on the knife which takes off less metal than traditional sharpening and holds its edge longer. The convex edge has become the most popular sharpening technique used by custom knife makers.
The convex edge has become the most popular sharpening technique used by custom knife makers. The 1” x 30” sharpener is compact and easily sits on a kitchen counter or shop bench. The belts are easily changed in seconds, and are available in grits from 120 to 1000. The 120 grit is only used to fix broken tips, chips and work on very dull blades. You can also use it to sharpen lawn mower blades, hatchets, axes, etc.
Once your blades are sharp, all you have to do is strop them a few seconds on the leather belt and they will be razor sharp again. If you have never sharpened a knife before on a belt sander, you owe it to yourself to give it a try. You will never use another sharpening tool again!
