Man, I'm loving these purple belts! They just keep going and going when I'm hogging off material - seriously impressive how long they last. The ceramic ones cost a pretty penny, so I really try to squeeze every bit of life out of them since they do most of the heavy lifting in my shop. Had a quick question about which grit to use and boom - got an answer right back through their chat thing. Super helpful.
I've only messed around with a few other ceramic options before, mostly just whatever I could pick up from this little local supply shop I order from. But man, these are definitely working way better than that other stuff. Grabbed the 36, 60, and 120 grit belts to handle all my pre-heat treat work, and I'm really happy with how they're performing. Good call on this purchase.
I make it a point to grab some ceramic belts whenever I can, even if it's just a handful, so I can really compare how they stack up cost-wise and how long they actually last. These ones delivered on both fronts - solid lifespan and the price point works for me. I'm a big fan of those Norton Blaze belts, don't get me wrong, but honestly I don't think the performance justifies what you're shelling out for them. The value just isn't quite there. Threw together some shots of the little knives I've been working on to test drive that 36 grit. Pictures came out pretty grainy, but that's on me - really need to get some better lighting set up in the shop. The belt performed great though, just wish I could show it off better in the photos.
I always try ceramics, even just a few, to compare pricing and life. These had great life and the price is right. Fan of the norton blaze belts, but don't think they quite hold up when it comes to price for the price you pay. Put some pics of small knives i worked on to test out the 36 grit. Kind of grainy, but need to add more lights in the shop.
I'm really happy with these purple belts. THey seem to really last a lot on stock removal. Honestly, the ceramics are the most expensive and I try to get the best life out of them as those are the workhorses. Had a minor question on the grits, and got an answer right away through the message app.
I've only tried a few other ceramics, mostly stuff I've found ordering from a local small supplie shop. This seems to work much better. I got the 36 grit, 60 and 120 grit belts to use before heat treatment. Got the kit and mostly aox belts

The belts themselves are performing awesome, zero complaints there. But holy crap, it looked like the post office used my package as a football on the way over. The box was completely beat to hell and had been retaped back together - you could tell it got seriously mangled during shipping. Thankfully the belts made it through without any damage, so no harm done in the end, but man that box took a beating.

The belts work great, really no issue. But the post office seemed to have dropped the box a hundred times on the way to my door. Box was retaped together it looks like. That said the belts weren't damaged.
