Or burn stuff? 
Well we did these things, so as to make a Barrytown knife, wouldn't you? Below, Barry, in Barrytown, forging steel.
Below, Laura, in Barrytown, learning she's not strong enough to forge steel.
Barry telling Laura to sharpen up and stop forging like a girl.
It turns out there are many steps in making a knife, several of which involve these belt sanders. The precision steps are done my knifemaster Steve.

Finished product, Barry of Barrytown was very proud.
Admire our forging, sanding, polishing, drilling, slicing and riveting skills, oooooooh.
