The Kalamazoo 2FSM 2 x 48 inch sander/grinder is a powerhouse tool built for serious knife makers and craftsmen who demand precision, reliability, and performance. With a compact bench footprint and heavy-duty capabilities, the 2FSM is a step up from the popular 1SM model—offering more belt length, a faster surface speed, and increased versatility.
Designed for professional-grade results, this grinder operates in both vertical and horizontal positions, making it ideal for a wide range of grinding and finishing tasks. Its rugged 1/2 HP motor delivers 3450 RPM, driving the belt at an impressive 4500 SFPM for efficient material removal and refined shaping. Quick belt changes are made easy with a hinged OSHA-approved safety guard, and the built-in tilt table and removable platen give you total control over your work.
Whether you're building full-tang knives, shaping custom sheaths, or finishing hardware, the Kalamazoo 2FSM is engineered to deliver clean, repeatable results every time.
