I'm just starting to get into knife making. I just bought a 1x30 with the 5 inch disk other side to see if I have any aptitude. I do have a 13x40 lathe and Rongfu mill drill that I can use. Thank for letting me join im hoping to learn how to make something nice eventually. This is for fun only so selling won't be a priority maybe gifts if they pass as a knife lol. Good day to all Mark
 
Welcome, ask questions & have fun. As someone who started knife making late in life, I've found that having the right equipment makes a huge difference. Use your 1x30 and get the feel of how grinding works for you. Eventually you will likely find it's really helpful to upgrade to a 2x72 variable speed grinder. Search for many other postings in KDs about whether a 2x72 is important or necessary for grinding knives.
