The belts are a very great product,and I will be telling everyone that I can about this company.
These shredder belts are amazing. They are fast and they last a very long time. I would definitely recommend these to anyone looking for a what I think is one of the best belts for removing a lot of steel on the market.
If you need to remove metal in a hurry shop no more these belts will get it done and they wear very good
Every belt werks good.
This is the first 36 grit belt I bought specifically for grinding hardened steel and I was very surprised at the difference it made going to this belt. Typically I charged for a 3 belts per knife and went through 1 belt on a 12" bowie on each grit, hence 3 belts per knife 36, 120, 220, and then the 400 and 600 lasted a couple however; I've been though 4 bowies on this one belt and the grind lines are just now starting to show that I am needing to think of changing the belt out... Looks like I may need to get new handle belts now since I use to use the old belts for handle making....LOL
The quality of these Sanding Belts for Profiling & Sharpening is amazing! I will buy them again as the need arises.
Love these shedder belts!
Just started making knives and these belts are awesome. They track well on my cheap grinder and seem to last a long time.

Best belts I’ve used. Made quick work of re-profiling and re-finishing two S35VN blades.
It fits perfectly. Thanks
So far happy with the performance on wood and metal, however haven't had much time to really push them yet.
These belts make short work of a lot of metal. I like them very much.
