scotch brite and similar finish

[Kevin McGovern]

Does anyone have a video they can point me too, showing the use of these types of belts?

No video but i use them for blending and finishing on plungless knives like my kitchen cutlery. They are tough to keep things crisp like your plunges. If you're looking for a belt finish try the 400-600 cork belts.

I like using them on hollow grinds. I don't usually hand sand hollow grinds and the finish comes out looking pretty good. I would recommend the extra fine (grey belt). I bought a brown one too, but never use it anymore due to it washing out crisp lines. Ymmv

So a similar finish while keeping crisp lines? Do you load the cork belts with compound, or use as is?

 

[Matt Rochester]

I use the corks as is. I am going to try loading them with green compound.
