I recently switched to the Sorby Pro-Edge belt sharpening system and I'm really enjoying it. That said...I have a large skew I need to re-shape and the coarsest belt I can find is a 60 grit. Does anyone know if a 40 grit belt is available somewhere? THANKS...j

I'm clueless (about many things) but if you can't find the belt you want perhaps you could remove most of the metal with a bench grinder (or even an angle grinder) then finish up on the Sorby.
