whats your opinion on the belt style knife sharpeners like this one.

I have been seriously thinking of getting the Work Sharp Ken Onion version of that. I have a Harbor Freight $39.95 belt sander that I have always intended to set up as a sharpener. I just never have gotten around to it.
DeleteYears ago I worked for a now-defunct knife company while I went back to grad school. I got to meet a few knife designers and makers and go to their shops. I remember hanging out in Randall King's workshop a few times and he used a belt sander with a leather belt and compound to put the final edge on a knife. It's quick and does a good job. However, you can also ruin a knife in a heartbeat if you aren't careful.
So great infographic about knife sharpening. But do I need a tool like sander or grinder to do this job?
