Hello all,

Wanting to purchase a blade grinder. How many of you use the RBG or MagnaMatic? I think both are pretty good from what I have researched but I’m leaning more towards the RBG 712, 934, 750 or 950 because they utilize a preset blade guide. The Magna-Matic 9000 you have to make adjustments Both brands are not cheap grinders. I appreciate your thoughts & comments. Thanks

I did have an Oregon 12" blade grinder that used the same wheel as the RBG and had lots of issues with wheel grit clogging when sharpening JD blades. Have since went to the Oregon belt grinder made by Burrking using the 36 grit ceramic belts.

I would have to clean the grit twice per blade end just to prevent burning the blades . Would take up to ten minutes per blade just to sharpen,

Wow everyone one on here must use files and maybe a bench grinder to sharpen their blades?
