RPM Neil Signature 2" x 72" Bladesmith Sanding Kit 

Forge Your Legacy with the Tools of a Master Designed in collaboration with world-renowned bladesmith Neil Kamimura (@RPM_Neil), this kit is the exact belt sequence Neil uses to take a raw forged blade to a gallery-quality finish.

Neil is known for his aggressive stock removal and intricate handle work. This kit reflects that "Real & Raw" style by combining our legendary #Shredder Ceramic Belts for heavy hogging with our ultra-flexible J-Flex Aluminum Oxide belts for that signature Kamimura contouring.

The RPM Neil Kit Includes:

• The Shredders (36 - 120 Grit): Neil’s choice for rapid profiling and bevel grinding. These ceramic belts are designed to eat steel while running cool.

• The Finishers (J-Flex AO): Extra-flexible belts for slack-grinding handles and blending the curves that make Neil's knives famous.

• Surface Conditioning (Non-Woven): For achieving that professional "machine-satin" look before the final etch or polish.

The Kamimura Sequence: How to Use This Kit

• Profiling & Hogging (36 Grit Shredder): Establish your "Raw & Real" profile quickly.

• Bevel Cleanup (60 - 120 Grit Shredder): Clean up hammer marks and establish your primary grind.

• Handle & Contour (220 - 400 J-Flex): Switch to the "J-Flex" to wrap around handles and refine the tang.

• Final Surface Prep (Medium/Fine Conditioning): Remove scratches and prep the steel for a clean, uniform finish.
