I don't see this bug of knifemaking going away so I need to get a real grinder and like the title says I want to stay around 1k.
I really don't want to mess with building one I would rather buy one and build knives.
I have researched googled and read a bunch on here and bladefourms about different ones. Here is kind of what I'm thinking. The two I'm stuck on is the pheer 427 1 hp with VFD and the other is the wilmont LB 1000 1.5hp but fixed speed. To me the wilmont looks better built but I think not having the variable speed I will regret. I would be happy with a LB1000 with the 1 hp and vfd off the pheer.
So what ya think fellas. I would love to here from guys who own the two models I'm considering. And if I missed some in my price range fill me in.
Thanks for the help I know there are a ton of threads about this stuff but hey we all like talking tools
