Well I have started to run low on belts and decided to make an order today from trugrit. I ordered my typical 36 AO belts for wood and handle material, a few trizact gators in 120 240 40 and 600, and an 800 grit cork belt. I also ordered a dozen of the VSM ceramic belts. I am very interested to see how they work for my grinding style, as some have given moderate reviews and some guys really love them. I figured they were worth a shot considering they are a full ceramic belt for less than 4 bucks a piece. I will be sure to let you guys know how they turn out one they get here. Have any of you used cork belts before? I have heard good things but never tried one before.
Right on...let us know how it turns out....I just bought 10 80grit AO belts from knife supply and didn't like them. There was no backbone to the belt so the grit literally fell off in minutes and to the grave of belts they went. Re-ordered from somewhere else that had a solid backing and really stand up well in comparison.
