What Can We Help With?
Here are the most common reasons customers reach out:
Product Questions
Not sure which platen is right for your setup? Wondering about the difference between flat and radius platens? Need help choosing a grit progression for sharpening? Send us your question and we will give you a specific recommendation based on your grinder model and intended use. We can also point you to relevant resources on our site, including the FAQ and our knife making tools guide.
Compatibility Checks
Airplaten products fit most 2x42 and 2x36 belt grinders, including Bucktool, WEN, RIKON, and Craftsman models. If you have a different grinder or are not sure about your belt format, send us the make and model and we will confirm whether our platens are compatible before you buy.
Bulk Pricing
Ordering platens for a knife making class, workshop, or retail location? We offer volume pricing on orders of five or more platens. Email us with the quantity and product mix you need and we will send a custom quote.
Custom Orders
Need a non-standard platen size, a specific radius, or a custom mounting solution? We can accommodate special requests for carbon fiber platens outside our standard product line. Describe what you need and we will let you know what is possible, along with lead time and pricing.
Order Status & Warranty
For questions about an existing order, shipping status, or a warranty claim, email us with your order number. All Airplaten products are covered by a lifetime warranty against manufacturing defects and material failure under normal use. If something is not right, we will make it right.
