New Rikon 8" slow speed grinderr at woodcraft.

Bart Leetch · Sep 27, 2013

I found this on another forum they replaced the 8" grinder they used to sell with a Rikon one.

Comes with 120 and a 60 grit while wheel. For $99

Good deal for someone looking for a grinder for sharpening on a budget

Cool. Looks pretty identical to the old one they used to sell, and that is indeed a good price. :thumb:

The tool rests look pretty cheap and flexible, though. I removed the ones on mine and just use the flat rest that came with my PSI knockoff of a Wolverine sharpening jig

Thanks Bart. I've had some extra cash thats been burning a hole in my pocket. My grinder died a few years ago.

oh boy, for $100 I think one of those just got on my short list of tools to buy this month!

Yep looks just like their old one. Most of the rikon stuff seems to get decent reviews hopefully the grinder follows suite.
