Thanks for the inspiration!

You popped up on my feed.
Nice review. Retired guy and been watching Cliff Curry. I as many others who wanted to get into sharpening to sharpen tools, kitchen knives or just general sharpening have purchased the Rikon 50-161VS.
After seeing this video I have to say all your points are spot on. Thank You for an excellent post. Good luck and prosper with your new found business..
This machine is a cool piece of equipment for any small shop. Thank You

What exactly did you have to do to mount the angle guide on the knife makers platen? Thanks.

What’s the income like?
I’ve lived sharpening and the feeling of using a sharp knife since I was a child. I have a great career but am considering sharpening as a side hustle

[@robertmunguia250]

I wonder if you could put a 2 in drive wheel on it to run 2 by 42 belts?

[@HonedByJones]

Don’t know. I’d probably just get a 2x42.

[@maxavol]

So could you sharpen edge trailing with this machine?

[@HonedByJones]

Steven sharpens said in his video that he ordered the machine edge trailing straight from the company.

Thanks for all your information. I'm in the starting phase and I have a 1x30 and a ken onion. I have gotten somethings from Curry Custom I'd like to chat with you. I'll message you. Good luck
