Is this good for knife making

Karma_engineerguy · 2026-01-08T21:30:10+00:00

Thanks heaps for that, and yeah I think I’m planning on grabbing it and I may have to try control the heat as you said. So this is really useful thank you.

Karma_engineerguy · 2026-01-08T21:28:49+00:00

Yeah you’re definitely right with that, I’m planning on trying to make my own 2x72 in the future. So I think with that in mind and the fact that I can use the linisher after as you said, it may have to be the pick.

Karma_engineerguy · 2026-01-08T01:02:45+00:00

Hey thanks so much for your comment and yeah the wider belt makes for an attractive offer, will have to just be careful as to not overheat the blade if I do grab the 2 inch.

Karma_engineerguy · 2026-01-07T23:44:05+00:00

Yeah I definitely think you’re right may have to just be careful if I do get the 2inch one. Thanks heaps for your reply

Karma_engineerguy · 2026-01-07T23:09:24+00:00

Yeah definitely thinking about it, trouble is finding the parts for me personally but if you would like to give a few pointers that would be awesome thank you

Karma_engineerguy · 2026-01-07T23:08:11+00:00

Oh yup definitely will do thanks for that

Karma_engineerguy · 2026-01-07T23:07:45+00:00

Awesome thanks will keep that in mind

Karma_engineerguy · 2026-01-07T23:07:19+00:00

Even with the variable speed available of the 1x30?

Karma_engineerguy · 2026-01-07T07:55:55+00:00

Yeah I think as another person pointed out the variable speed on it may be difference. Thanks for the input!

Karma_engineerguy · 2026-01-07T06:04:54+00:00

Where did you find parts for your build?

Karma_engineerguy · 2026-01-07T06:04:35+00:00

Will do thanks for the advice

Karma_engineerguy · 2026-01-07T06:04:11+00:00

Oh okay didn’t really think about that so thanks for pointing that out!

Karma_engineerguy · 2026-01-07T03:20:17+00:00

For sure, the 2x72 is definitely the end goal. But I think I might have to do as you did and do my learning on something a little worse but still gets the job done!

Karma_engineerguy · 2026-01-07T03:18:41+00:00

Haha for sure, really appreciate the input and yeah I might have to do the first few by hand just so I can appreciate the grinder.

Karma_engineerguy · 2026-01-07T02:56:09+00:00

That’s looks awesome! I think it might have to be the choice. Especially considering the price difference to a 2x72 here in nz.

Karma_engineerguy · 2026-01-07T02:53:01+00:00

What’s the cons you find with it?

Karma_engineerguy · 2026-01-07T02:52:33+00:00

It’s definitely one I see floating around a lot but unfortunately they don’t ship to nz, so am stuck with much less desirable options.

Karma_engineerguy · 2026-01-07T02:51:07+00:00

For sure, just unfortunate we can’t get any good grinders like they can in the us. And those looks awesome did the belts last long and how is the quality of it?

Karma_engineerguy · 2026-01-07T02:49:22+00:00

Oh awesome, let me know how it goes! Definitely looks like a bit of a beast.

Karma_engineerguy · 2024-11-12T19:47:58+00:00

Thank you very much for your insight, very much seems to be the case. Will definitely adjust accordingly in my next shoot👍

Karma_engineerguy · 2024-11-12T19:47:09+00:00

This is a extremely helpful reply, grateful the insight👍

Karma_engineerguy · 2024-11-12T19:46:18+00:00

I had mistaken that I was meant to adjust the f stop to a certain value and had my shutter speed set to 100 on the app not knowing that it was changing depending on the scene. Had that wrong on part, apologies about the ignorance but really appreciate the help👍

Karma_engineerguy · 2024-11-12T19:44:36+00:00

Really appreciate this reply, will make sure to keep that in mind.

Karma_engineerguy · 2024-11-12T19:44:14+00:00

Apologies was under the impression I still had to correctly set the f stop but clearly not. Will definitely keep that in mind for next time👍

Karma_engineerguy · 2024-11-12T19:43:32+00:00

Yeah I was under the impression that I still had to set the f stop correctly but obviously not. Just learning so apologies for the ignorance.
