YOUR KNIFE GRINDER TOOL REST SUX | Do this before you grind another knife


Level up your knife grinder with this inexpensive little project.



#knifegrinder #norseman #makersmovement

I realized that most knife grinder tool rests are too small or should at least be modular if you are going to get the most out of your grinder.  This is the solution that I came up with to solve the problem and expand the capabilities of my grinder.  I know that a large tool rest is not needed most of the time, but when it is needed nothing else will do.  I hope this video streamlines your process and expands the capabilities of your equipment.  Happy grinding makers. 

Just getting started in Knifemaking?  Here are a couple grinders that will pay for themselves very quickly.  I built my shop with mine and payed for practically everything inside it.  There are many other options out there but this is the best bang for the buck, and it will not let you down.  I recommend the Shop Fox over the Grizzly.  It is cheaper, virtually identical, comes with a 10" wheel and the Grizzly comes with an 8".
