    Nielsen Disc grinder system

    How hard/much time is it to change a disc on a regular grinder? Say I wanted a flat disc for most work, but a beveled disc for longer kitchen blades. Can I switch them out without too much difficulty or are they more permanent and I would need another grinder?

    Make your own sheath or send it out?

    I make my own. I feel like a knife isn't complete until it has a sheath. Even when I start doing kitchen knives I plan on making a saya for them. I haven't done any kydex yet, but love the look of a well made leather sheath.
