24 Pcs 3/4" x 12" Replacement Knife Sharpener Sanding Belt Kit for Work Sharp Ken Onion Edition (WSKTS-KO) Knife & Tool Sharpener , 80/120/240/400/1000/1200 Grits

Always buying replacement belts for my Work Sharp from these guys. The belts may not last that long, but work very very well, and are inexpensive.The best value for money I can get so far.

Fits my sharpener perfectlyEasy to use and well made.

Didn’t fit perfect but close enough. I haven’t used the courses belt but everything else worked well. They were slightly wider than expected so the edges frayed slightly with limited use so far. I’ve got some pretty impressive results with these and I’m not that experienced yet. Great value for the guy trying to learn how you use a power sharpener for the first time. Not sure of long term quality but they’re great so far.

These sanding belts are 100% better than the original belts that come with the WorkSharp machine. They cover a wider range of grits than the factory belts and they seem to last a lot longer. These belts make the machine so much more useful.

They are thinner than the name brand sanding strips but about a 1/3 of the price so you can afford to use more of them.

First off, for those who are looking for the information, the Ken Onion belt grit equivalents are as follows: P120=120g, X65=220g, X22=1000g, X4=3000g, 1/2" Belt=6000g. This kit provides 80g, 120g, 240g, 400g, 1000g, and 1200g. It does not offer X65 (220g), X4 (3000g), or the 1/2" 6000g belt. From a practical perspective, the provided 240g is equivalent to the X65 (220g), and you'll have no issues using one over the other. As regards the 80g belt, unless your knife edge is incredibly damaged or you're sharpening something like a mower or shovel blade, you will probably never need to use it. In my experience, after initially sharpening/reshaping your knives, where they gain the "convex" shape that the work sharp provides, you do not need to return to the courser P120 (120g) belt. Depending on what task you are sharpening your knives for, the lack of the X4 (3000g) and 1/2" 6000g belt may not be a problem. I maintain my kitchen knives with the X22 (1000g) belt. The X22 provides an excellent general-purpose edge with reasonable durability. The higher grit you sharpen/hone with, the less durable the edge will be. Highly sharpened edges are not as good for cutting meat, which is somewhat counter-intuitive, but I found knives sharpened to X22 last longer and work better for me in the kitchen than when sharpened to X4 (3000g). You use the 1/2" 6000g belt for sharpening serrated knives and scissors or creating an edge you can shave with. This kit is a reasonable, cost-effective alternative to buying the factory belts and does provide some additional grits that some people may find useful, while not providing others. Also, the belts are NOT well marked, but I found at least one belt out of the four had a grit marking, so I used a sharpie to mark the grits on the remainder.

Good quantity for the price point. I have used some of them and they work fine. Install is a little tricky but they do go on the machine.

The belts are high quality and fit the machine perfectly.
