A machine for grinding the edges of long thin workpieces such as the blanks for pieces of cutlery has a turntable (2) to which the blanks (44) are fastened by a device (42). As the turntables rotates each blank passes a device (66) which brings the blank to the grinding position. The blank then passes through grinding stations (4). Each grinding station (4) consists of an endless belt (14) which passes around guide pulleys so that a vertical part of the belt is pressed against the workpiece. The belt has an abrasive surface which smoothes the edges of the workpieces. USE - Cutlery manufacture.
