First post! I've lived on this forum for months and months learning about knife making. Really appreciate how generous this community is with it's knowledge. Thanks to all!
Finally have a question I couldn't find any posts about. Tried, but couldn't.
I've seen a couple of videos where makers started a flat grind by making a couple of cuts with a contact wheel and then bringing them together on a flat platen. Seems the advantages are 1) speed, and 2) increases belt life a bit. Can anyone give me some more DETAIL on how this is done, and maybe a bit of an apologetic for or against this method? Any help is appreciated.
Peace,
Frank DeLalla
