The missing belt for the workshop.

This tape is great for the last few passes for a sharp and shiny finish. This allows your knife to go beyond the 6000 grit that comes with sharpening. Just remember to apply light pressure. This belt is made of leather, but is still prone to breakage, as are work tool belts. The blade of the knife is slightly sharpened by light pressure. Also to fix an issue in one of the old reviews; the connection must be firm in the tube. This will treat the belt well with the friction of the moving belt.

Pros
  • Very fast delivery
Cons
  • Crumpled

A nice addition to my sharpening options

I have a sharpener that cuts through expensive ribbons too quickly. These leather belts stay put on my belt sharpener. They are durable, polish well and the supplier insists on replacing any failed belt. It lends itself well to buffing, which is crucial for carving leather. Not as good for sharpening as fine to medium grit (expensive) belts. Leather can't get thinner without losing strength, so I've given up using it with a blade guide that a skilled craftsman doesn't need anyway.

Pros
  • Price
Cons
  • Little things

What I Learned: Whetstones

***Edit*** To be honest you have to be very careful with these cords and that's okay because you sharpen, don't grind. This is light, delicate, exquisite work. I agree that gluing on a leather strap can lead to potential failures, but I bet the vast majority of these failures are due to abuse and you're not going to have a good belt anyway. Be careful because the belt can break, but be careful because you will get a haircut! The green mixture is for sexual polishing only. In that regard, heโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Certified
Cons
  • Cord is shorter than other picks
