Box that bad boy up and sell it! That's a awesome looking machine, like the best parts of all the grinders you listed!

Thank you!

Updated the original post to include a picture of the finished knife.

Thanks, I used the corner of my idler wheel on my grinder. Just introduced the spine randomly at different angles and depths.

Heat treat is done, acid washed and a glacier finish on the spine. Hopefully get her cord wrapped and sharpened by the weekend.

Thanks, lots of room for improvement but its a very rewarding hobby! Cant wait to finish the 5 on my bench.

I like them alot, what kinda steel?

Much truth in that statement!

Thank you!

Kitchen knife and matching fillet knife in s35vn with desert camo kirinite scales. Need to spend a little more time on the blade finish but I think they came out ok for knives 3&4.

Wilmont LB1000 with a Leeson 2hp motor and VFD

Nice work on that SMA

I run it super slow, but I would imagine that would be a hell of a scare if it backed out all the way! I haven't seen your video, link?

Little cheater trick for a DIY small wheel. Not the greatest small wheel but it will work till I can pick one up! https://youtu.be/zK1P_PWmcQY

Thats a great idea, thank you!

What would be the best way to straighten them before heat treat? Vice and bend? I was planning on going to at least 120, maybe I'll go 220 now. Thanks for the advice.

That's awesome, nice knife and congtrats on the deer.

Finished up my fighter, calling it "Uruk" - 5.25" A2 Tool steel - Dark OD Green paracord wrap - Acid washed finish with a cracked ice spine Think I might call this the "mordor" finish. Opinions and critiques welcomed!

So I got a piece of quarter inch by two inch by thirty six inch A2 steel. It has a slight bend or warp in it. No twisting just bent slightly. I have 4 knives that I have ground to ready for heat treat status. My question is, will heat treat+plate quench straighten it out? It's not incredibly...

Finished assembly & wiring up my Wilmont LB1000. Loving the switch to 2x72 and variable speed. Chris Williams has been a great person to deal with. First knife on the new machine is ready for HT, need to grind 5 more. https://youtu.be/GsoQPZq_p-Y
