Briefly, the Grizzly has no jigs for the presentation of the tool to the grindstone, it has no facility to hone the tool after grinding, the water tray is part of the frame, (making it very difficult to clean out) and it is run by a gearbox rather than a simple friction drive.

Another important difference:  if you buy a Grizzly there is no Jeff Farris to respond instantly and expertly to your questions.
