Neels, Thank you for this instructional video. As usual, you make it look so easy, but in a way we can understand and follow. Keep safe and keep making wonderful knives. Still praying for you and all our friends in Africa.

Great video man! So can a small or not as pronounced recurved blade be done on the slack part of the belt sander?

[@NeelsVandenBerg]

Yes sir

[@msblades5382]

Another question. I am not yet a full time maker but I desire to be what do you recommend for starting in that direction? Thanks again, Martin

[@primeoozarururalsmith4403]

Have you considered building and selling belt grinders?

[@NeelsVandenBerg]

In all honesty, I'd rather just make knives ... 😀

[@msblades5382]

I have a somewhat serious and off topic question. When are you and Stuart moving to the USA ?

[@philipprigmore8723]

I would love to see you and Stuart move here too. And please bring your entire crew with you. It would be a blast having you and Stuart here, think about the hammer ins we could have.

Great video Neels. I have been looking for your email but I can't get it from my tablet. It took a crap so would you give it again please. Cheers,Martin
