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. The knives were exactly as described and they installed in 15 minutes with no fuss. Excellent product ***** No end snipe. Test it out on some walnut and the results were near perfect. I reset my in feed and out rolls.
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. Installing the knives went quickly because I still had the Ryobi blade alignment tool. 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. 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. 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. The nice part about the Ryobi AP-10 planer is that you CAN resharpen the knives. The power cord was in need of replacing because the jacket was falling apart.
I still had the instructions that came with the planer so I figured out how to take it apart to replace the cord.
IT'S A BLADE, IT'S SHARP, IT CUTS.WHAT ELSE. ITEM IS AS ADVERTISED.
blades are great but the shipping could use alot of help with the time frame.slow
Took about 15 minutes to change them out. Just bought a set of these blades for my old Ryobi AP10 planer and they fit perfectly.
