How to Sharpen a Knife on a 2x72 grinder

This is the process we use to sharpen our knives on our 2x72 belt grinder.
Start with a 120 grit Aluminum belt, 400 grit, and then a 600 grit belt. Get rid of the burr and polish with a Surgi-Sharp leather belt using pink compound. Hold a consistent angle during the entire process and you will have a hair splitting edge in no time!

    Just received my GP2 black/red layered handle. Beautiful knife! Probably the best daily carry I’ve found. Keep up the great work Chris. NSDQ!

    I did the same thing not long ago I cut myself on a freshly sharpened it was such a clean cut it closed right up normally this bad of cut would require stitches but I put a bandage on it and it closed right up and healed extremely fast ... this tells me a serrated blade would be best for self defense oh and I dont have one of your knives but I want one bad I just have not been able to afford one lately

    They range in price depending on the quality you want. The one in this video is around $3200 and worth every penny.
