We sure do, from the mountains to the central farmlands to the swamps to the beaches of Cumberland Island, wild hogs seem to flourish here. I used to hunt them in the swamps, but that is a high energy sport. You're right, David, the Regulator would be a fine Pig sticker. Horned, dangerous, and off my medication.

I have used it mainly for kydex sheaths so far but was going to try to learn grinding blades. One main question I have is what kind of belt speeds do you run. My set up is one speed and it seems pretty fast. Do you pro's use a variable speed and slow it down? Any other words of wisdom for a wanna be steel grinder?

The real knife making pros do have variable speed, but I just keep the steel moving. It isn't a real problem for me. After a while, it just becomes automatic, like tying your shoes. I imagine that by now there are at least a dozen or so fellow dogs here on the forum that can do a convex edge as well as I can or better. Advice? Practice on cheap machetes first. Horned, dangerous, and off my medication.
