Hey guys I want to make my first knife I have a belt sander/grinder, grinding wheel, drill and other common tools what else do I need?
 
Get a few books and read them cover to cover.Wayne Goddards,"The $50 Knife Shop" is a good starter.
Check out the tutorials and info (including book lists) at www.knifehow.com .

Correct. By changing the belt to different size steps, you can change the speed at which the belt runs. Sometimes it's nice to be able to slow down for a finer grit belt, etc.

Good luck and make sure you post pics of your work!
