Here’s a pro tip put little disposable plastic shower caps on your buffing wheels when they’re not in use so they don’t collect other compounds and dust and grit from your shop
Really appreciate your videos You share a lot of information that sometimes takes a lot of research but when you’re new even the basics are unknown until you learn Very helpful thank you
This is the same system guys have been polishing big truck wheels and fuel tanks with a hand held. Its truly amazing what this can do. They also have a liquid polish you can finish up with just using a fiber cloth for that extra fine mirror.
Want to mirror polish a Manix 2 blade for me this year? This year I want my big project knife to be a mirror polished Manix 2. Was originally thinking about harvesting a MagnaCut blade from a Salt, but people have been having huge problems getting them to work in G10 liners, so now I'm thinking about CPM Cruwear when the Crucarta Manix drops.
Hi from ireland, super videos.. ive a question, what or when do you decide between buffer wheels vs scotch brite belts vs very high grit belts for getting the finish? Thanks
Hello! Big thanks from the deep North of Canada for all your work and videos! I was wondering what king of grinfer fif you ude in this video! I am loonking for a good price grinder that ex: i could use whit those weels or others! Thank you in advance and continue your great work i love shining my knifes either for my collection or costumers! Frank
@@gentrycustomknives8008 thank you are they expensive? Right now i am using all my weels with my Drill! Thank you for answering! continue your good work!
Hi from Australia, love the channel, what is the kit called. Also, I don't think they sell to Aus so will have to contact them or find a supplier, unless you know one that posts international
They absolutely will ship to Australia. I live in NSW and they have shipped to me. I called them and they were super helpful. They got me a quote on shipping and I had my order in two weeks!
These could be a game changer for me also, many thanks for bringing this product to the community's attention. Since you've used them for a while, do you have any feel for how long each wheel is likely to last? 100 blades each? 500?
Hey dude, started using this kind of buffing and polishing system for about 20 years on many different metal projects, just hobby stuff, and motorcycle parts. To get super fine needs i use cape cod polishing clothes. This will polish out small scratches in glass and mirrors. Have you used this for anything? I like to see others work and get good tips . Never to old to learn. Do you use epoxy glue on you scales. If so what kind. Thanks. Good video. Gunna subscribe.
I've been using a generic airway wheel for a couple of months. I've a set in my cart from redlabel but haven't pulled the trigger yet. On a side note what rpm is your buffer/grinder? Keep up the good videos.

Yep great system. I bought a set a while back. Super easy to get a mirror polish on my razors!
It’s been a huge time saver for me! I guess they have an even courser cut wheel aswell 🤔

Email me sometime to talk
What's up fellow Michigander! Love your craftsmanship.
Hey thank you!!
How does this treat fine transition lines? Does it wash them out?
Slightly
Could we use something like that to polish the edge as well? For example after sharpening on a guided system as a finish?
Absolutely!
Hi from ireland, super videos.. ive a question, what or when do you decide between buffer wheels vs scotch brite belts vs very high grit belts for getting the finish? Thanks
I take most blade finishes to the same grit no matter what final finish I plan to do
Of course it's sold out too! How much do they retail for since it doesn't show price?
I think around 85$ should be back in stock soon
@@gentrycustomknives8008 thank you, I'm in the email notification for when they come back in
Great info, where do you buy your buffs and polishing compounds?
Red label abrasives
What buffers are you using?
This is so helpful thank you so much!
Thanks for watching!!
Hey sir, you seem to have a video for all my blade needs recently. Do you have one for blueing or doing a blade coating?
I have some on my stone washing process
@gentrycustomknives8008 ill look for them thanks

I’m now using the grizzly buffers and they are great!
@@gentrycustomknives8008 thank you are they expensive? Right now i am using all my weels with my Drill! Thank you for answering! continue your good work!
So so shiny!
👊👊👊
Use a wood bastard file to rough them up
I picked up one of those buffing wheel rakes
Looks great‼️ how is the heat build up?
Grtz
Definitely gets a little toasty!
@@gentrycustomknives8008 so not recommended for thin kitchen knives I guess.
What grinders do you have? I’ve not seen those.
Kmg TX grinders! Or are you asking about the buffers? Those are grizzly

I’m sure they can hook you up! Send them an email.

Thanks for the reply mate, I'll give them a call👍
Do you run all your blades through the surface grinder?
Yes!
These could be a game changer for me also, many thanks for bringing this product to the community's attention. Since you've used them for a while, do you have any feel for how long each wheel is likely to last? 100 blades each? 500?
They last a very long time. I’ve used the other set for a couple years and they are still fine
@@gentrycustomknives8008 Thank you for your quick response! When they're back in stock I will use your link to order a set.
What rpm are those run at?
3590 rpm
What rpm buffer do you recommend for these ?

I run mine at 1725

I’ve never tried those clothes but I will now! Yes I use gflex 2 part and blade pro most of the time!
It's been a minute!
👊👊👊
Well I went to order a kit and they are sold out 🤣
Back in stock next week they told me!
thats sick.
👊👊
I've been using a generic airway wheel for a couple of months. I've a set in my cart from redlabel but haven't pulled the trigger yet. On a side note what rpm is your buffer/grinder? Keep up the good videos.
Mine are 3590 rpm . Works pretty good!
@@gentrycustomknives8008 Mine are 3450 & 1750. Can't say one is better than the other.
Sweet
👊👊👊
Can I contact you for some custom work? Mirror polish for a celebratory knife gift; s90v benchmade crooked river.
That’s not something I can take on right now unfortunately
wow
👊👊👊
Clean your blade between wheels or you will cross contaminate them.
Ahhh that’s a very good tip!! Thank you
That's amazing! Too bad they're sold out.
They will be back in stock first part of next week!!
Renegade products carries them as well. That's where I order mine
different topic; have you peen pins on your handles?
I never have
that's incredible! I loathe sanding.
I totally agree!!
