Considering a grinder finally

[TreeLife]

I've had one of these bastages for a couple years and it works great on my kitchen knives, lawn mower blades and other outdoor edged tools.

They have an attachment that allows for easy shaping & grinding.

Dude...I like that

My edged tools are always razur sharp. Life's too short to have dull blades.

I use a Lansky for my more valuable stuff.


Here's another vid. Good learning channel...

Where is the best place to get files these days? I won't buy them locally, they're outrageous

They had some great deals. I got 3 dozen 7/32 files for the price of less than 2 boxes. That deal with that quality is amazing

Those look really well made and handy - let me know what you think of it after you get a chance to figure it out, if you don’t mind.

I'd appreciate an update too, if you would post in the thread. I was just looking at these a few weeks ago. They look really slick!

The Work Sharp showed up on Friday, I haven't played with it yet really.

Been getting used to the chain vise, doing a few of my own chains. Filed up a 68 driver for my newly acquired mmws 550xp mk2. Smooth, fast, no chatter. Saw and chain are tit.

Picked up a dozen flat files at the local place, forget what I paid...
