   ...Some years ago I introduced him to my new to me linisher and he   
   found it so useful he kept popping round to use it, in the end he bought   
   his own and got it at a good price I guess as the auction finished   
   Sunday lunchtime when the football was on.   
      
   -----------------------   
      
   After I ordered some 1/2" x 12" sanding belts for an auto body air sander I   
   began seeing ads for the same size belts in very fine grits for a sharpener.   
   I also have a 1" x 30" belt sander with some unsupported space above the   
   platen that I use for freehand deburring. Do these sound like good   
   candidates for "linishing"?   
      
   The blacksmith/knife maker whose class I took had a large and powerful   
   shop-made 3 wheel belt sander for shaping blades. I tried it, but I'm   
   experienced enough with a 7" angle grinder to remove metal as fast and   
   reasonably neatly, with the work in a vise so it doesn't burn my hand.
