Good looking regrind there. Curious as to the finish grit and final BTE thickness? Been thinking of having one done but can't decide on what grit to finish out with.

I used XK870F 400 grit. One of my favorite belts as I run it slow and keep it moist to prevent heat build up.

It is not designed for wet applications but I use a sponge and apply some water while cutting.

Will take some measurements on the blade but will be later in the week.
