Grinders

I'm not comfortable with grinders I can find here.
If I give you the web page of some grinders can anyone look at these and give me an opinion...about shape not technical stuff.
Also I'd like to know very much if I can get one from the States(not an expensive one of course)
Or will these be good enough..
There's not much company here, thats selling fit flat grinders

Note: I started a dagger with just using files I really have to get a machine...


Regards

Onur

Honour, That looks to be one nice machine with potential for modification. I could not find the specs so depending on whether it has at least a 1hp motor and the price of the total package it looks like it may work.

If that machine has a platen that can be used to replace the wheel when you want to flat grind then you would have all you would need. If it also has a 'small wheel' attachment for doing finger grooves it would have all the features that nearly any other grinder would have. There should also be a tool rest available. You'll want that for profiling a blade.....
