Been Burning through blanks of CPM154, and 80crV2 like crazy. These stay on my belt racks longer than any other brand. The sample kit gave me the chance to try some different belts I wouldn't normally order.

Great belts at a great price. The kit I purchased came with so many belts it will take quite some time to wear them out.

I recently completed a home built Belt Grinder and wanted a variety of belts to try it out. I picked out the kit but had trouble getting my pre-paid card to work. The guys at Combat were very helpful and helped run my payment card through and gave me a discount as well! When I built the grinder, it tracked well with a discarded belt that I had picked up from the trash so I could get my dimensions right. The new belts had much heavier backing and did not track well so I have been making some adjustments to the tracking and tension.
I just got it tracking again but have not had time to do much besides square up a piece of steel. That was very impressive. The 36 grit sure eats through the steel! I will hopefully find time to get some sharpening and shaping done this weekend so I can get a couple of pictures too.

To figure out what will work this sample package is a good way to test different types of belts. Priced very well.

Super fast delivery and now I will never go elsewhere!!!!

Great belts for the price the only thing is I’m from Canada and the duty hits hard that’s the only thing that might turn me away...

I ordered the test kit because I just got my first 2x72 and was unsure how quickly I would wear through various grits. The test kit is fairly well balanced in this regard, and I am happy with the belts overall. My only critique is that I would have liked another ceramic belt or two. Will buy from Combat again
Nathan T.
The Combat test kit is pretty cool, it really helped me figure out which belts fit my way of working, especially being new to the 2x72 belt size. I have to say that the Shredders are definitely my favorite.

I recently finished a homemade a 2"X72" belt grinder and ordered the 2"X72" test kit from Combat Abrasives. So far I Love the belts. The 36 grit Ceramic Shredder literally shreds through steel. I wanted a kit that had several belts that I could test and see what I would actually use more of. So far I'm impressed and will eventually order more.

Cut grind time in half. i'm new to bladeamithing but these belts really hog off the metal
Travis J.
When combat abrasives says "shredder belt"...they are not kidding! I had to slow down the speed so I didn't end up with a fancy toothpick!
James W.
Best belt i ever used will be ordering from you guys from now on.

I've been listening to the Knife Talk podcast for a couple of months now.. They always speak very highly of Combat Abrasives! I only needed one belt to help me make a 2 x 72 sander. When I saw the sale on the Combat test kit Level 1. Just couldn't pass on the deal. I will share some pics as soon as they are available!!!
Daniel S.
Used these belts on this axe and many more knives The belts track well cut very well and hold up nicely over all 10 out of 10 planning on getting some more soon
Bryan W.
Used the 36 grit shredder for rough profiling a seax chopper. It cut through 1/4" 5160 beautifully.
John D.
Love this kit. These belts are great and a great deal. I'm getting my knives done faster, better and cheaper. Last twice as long as other belts I've used.
Chris R.

Best belts I have purchased
B G T.
I've been away from knife making for several years and all the belts that I had left in my stock were bad. I needed new belts to make a knife for a gift. The test kit had everything I needed and then some. I had used ceramic belts before. I was impressed. They removed metal very quickly. Walter Sorrels recommend your company. I'm glad I took his recommendation. The price was competitive and the service was fast. Thanks Gene Tomlinson.
james v.
First knife ground with these belts. Nice crisp grind, fast and affordable. Will definitely be ordering again!!

Cody B.
Didn’t have a photo of me grinding. But here was one just to show I do grind. They (combat abrasive) has sent me a couple emails asking to review their test kit. I wanted to wait awhile until I used them. In order to make a good review. And I am very happy with them so far. 60 & 120 ceramics are my favorite so far. Thanks
William M.
Good products with a fair price. I tend to abuse my 36 grit belts and these hold up remarkably well!!

Belts work great , I found a few of them snapped very easy , but otherwise worked fine
Steven R.

I've only gotten to use the 36 grit shredder, but so far it's working great.
Anthony T.
Belts work amazing! They hog steal and give a more consistent grind line that is easier to get perfect. I will shop combat abrasive exclusively for my belts from now on! Sharp. Durable. Well made, and blade approved. They helped me complete my very first knife, I made it for my sons first knife. Thank you combat abrasives!
Timothy D.
Brand new to a 2x72? This is your ticket! A VERY healthy selection of belts to choose from and try all new things. Make this your first purchase!
Guy H.
I love the bundle all the different belts I can now choose which I like the most shredders are awesome. I can't wait to use them up so I can get more
Mike B.
Hey guys these are great products. Thank you for great customer service
Michael K.
You cant go wrong with this kit. If you want to see what belts work as a new knifemaker this is the best option. I ordered 2 kits they are just what I was looking for. The knives arnt perfect but it's my first 2 knives.
Bryant M.
Belt's worked great, low grits really chewed though the steel and high grits did beautiful for removing scratches.
Chris H.
These test kits are perfect for my small output shop. The shredders will eat annealed and tempered 10x steel like cake. The belts in the kit are perfect for just restocking and deciding what you like. I wont buy anything else now that Ive found these.
Dustin H.
Great Belts I like how they had a selection were I can see what belts I like and which belts Fit me better keep up the great work
Greg G.
Great belts. The shipping was fast. The kit has let me try a bunch of belts to see which ones I like best.
Jon B.
Combat Abrasives products are the longest lasting, cleanest cutting, lowest heat generating abrasives I've ever used. Looking forward to trying their Rogue Epoxy, I'm sure it will perform as great as all their other products.
Thank you for providing us with the highest quality materials! -Bobst Designs
Michael S.
The test kit is a great way to check out the belts you are thinking of purchasing. Because of the performance I got out of the belts I wouldn't normally buy,it has led to using several different types and grits....and I'm glad,bc it has made my work much easier.
Best regards,
Mike Smith of Phat Doggy knives
Matt G.
Metal finishing belts are amazing. Saves time and produces a great finish for my engraved products.
Shane C.
Couldn't be happier with the Combat Test Kit. Just starting out. I wasn't sure where to start with belts and this kit seems to have a good variety to let you figure out what you need for your projects.
Dana R.
I knew I had chosen the right company to go with just as soon as I put the belt on my machine, I was using a 36 grit to "hog" the metal off. It went through it like butter. I love the belts!

I was very pleased with the contents and performance of this package
