Dremel

[Hawkfan]

Today I learned why you don't use a Dremel to put a mirror polish on a blade.

I probably should have done a little research first but at least now I know why people advise against it. Scotch brite red and gray, 150 to 2k grit sandpaper with oil. Green, red and white compounds. Flitz, like 10 polishing attachment bits...and it's still not a true mirror.

I thought you could make an entire knife with just an angle grinder....BS haha!

Dremels and other small rotary tools don't have enough surface contact area to polish a knife.

Well you can paint a house with a toothbrush, it will just take forever with poor result
