My knife grinding fixture is finished and operational. So far, so good.
 |
| Each surface flanks the grinder. Since the grinder can be adjusted for angle, the fixtures can stay put. |
 |
| When grinding each side of a knife, you pretty much lay it on the fixture and pull across. This doesn't mean it'll be perfect...there's still a little technique involved. I'm still working on the technique part. |
 |
| When you get to the curved part of the blade, you turn the blade on the table while keeping it flat. |
The keen eyed observer may have already noticed a design flaw here. I knew going in that it would happen, but I went ahead anyway, basically because it's just an inconvenience. In order to change belts, the top of the right side fixture has to be removed. I can live with that. Anyway, I'll use this for a while and see if it evolves over time.
