Old sharpening grinder...

[PDXDave]

So I'm back after a bit of break with another scrap yard rescue.
Someone dumped this old Intedge sharpening specific grinder.

It runs perfectly and the bearings are nice and smooth with no rough spots or run out.
It came from a cutlery shop that was in downtown Portland for many many years.

As near as I can tell, the company was known for their kitchen knives and not tools at all, so I'm thinking it's probably built by someone else to spec and re branded.

Any information on this old guy would be helpful.

Thanks!

Damn what a nice piece.

Thanks.
It never fails to amaze me what people throw away...
The scrap value was three bucks, so obviously I'm giving it a home.
