Red Label Abrasives1 X 42 Inch Knife Makers Fine Grit Sanding Belts, 6 Pack Assortment

I have been making knives for about 2 years now and have tried several different brands of belts. I have been able to grind bevels on 3 to 4 knives between belt changes instead of just one using competitors belts. This has been a money saver as well as time.

Previous bands broke easily. These last through tough jobs. Very good purchase for me.

I purchased these belts to go on a sander I recently bought at a yard sale. They work great. The finer grit belts I use for sharpening knives. They work great for that. The coarser grit belts work great for axes and lawnmower blades.Concerning longevity, after sharpening approximately 20 knives, the 600 grit and the 1000 grit are showing no signs of wear. The leather strip that came in the kit is broken in nicely and brings a mirror finish to an edge.Overall, I am completely satisfied with my purchase as far as what I got and what I paid for it.

I found these belts very useful so far. I don't use them often, but these suit my purposes.

These fit my sander perfectly. They cut good and so far are wearing as good as any belts I have tried.

Went through three belts on one knife blade BEFORE I'd even heat treated. Guess I'll stick to zirc belts in future.

I make my own knives. I start with 80 grit belts and finish it with these. Works great.

Nice sanding belts. Fit as expected. Be careful using on wood, removes a lot of material quickly.
