I received a Work Sharp knife and tool sharpener for Christmas. It kicks butt! Best knife sharpener I have ever used. You can take a totally abused/dull knife and shave with it in a couple minutes. Highly recommend it.
Is that a sanding belt or a leather stop? It looks like it would take a lot of metal off.
That would depend on what grit it is... The belt that Iuse on my machine is a 1200 grit and takes off very little. Less than a medium stone anyway. I then follow up with a leather belt on the machine to strop.
