Need some advice

[Garrett hhk]

I've been using a harbor freight 1" 30" sander but I'm looking to get something a little better under 300 bucks. I was looking at the grizzly 2" x 27" im just not sure

Thanks

The Grizz knifemaker is a pretty decent machine-

It's quite a bit more than you specified, but it does go on sale from time to time.

What about the cheaper one with the 6" disk?

Was also looking at the Kalamazoo 1-SM 1 x 42 inch grinder

The largest variation of belts available is 2 x 72", the length helps to keep everything a little more crisp on the grinds, and cooler in the burning the steel department.
