The knives were exactly as described and they installed in 15 minutes with no fuss. When I ran the walnut board through after having jointed two sides,the planed side and corresponding edge were so smooth I could have not bothered to finish sand. Test it out on some walnut and the results were near perfect. I reset my in feed and out rolls. No end snipe. Excellent product *****
The planer now performs just like new and made short work of cleaning up the redwood.I took the original knives to the local sharpening shop and now have a spare set ready to go. They arrived quickly and in perfect shape.
I decided to "tune up" my old Ryobi AP-10 planer that I purchased in the mid 80's. The power cord was in need of replacing because the jacket was falling apart.
I had some clear heart redwood 2x6 deck boards that I wanted to clean up to use to replace some decking. I found the Freud C600 knives and ordered them.
I still had the instructions that came with the planer so I figured out how to take it apart to replace the cord. I also gave the planer a thorough cleaning and lubing while it was apart.Now all that it needed to was a new set of planer knives.
Installing the knives went quickly because I still had the Ryobi blade alignment tool. The nice part about the Ryobi AP-10 planer is that you CAN resharpen the knives.
ITEM IS AS ADVERTISED. IT'S A BLADE, IT'S SHARP, IT CUTS.WHAT ELSE.
blades are great but the shipping could use alot of help with the time frame.slow
Just bought a set of these blades for my old Ryobi AP10 planer and they fit perfectly. Took about 15 minutes to change them out.
