I don't know well they will hold up over the long term compared to the Delta versions, but they fit fine, cut great and are much cheaper. What's not to like?

Update after using for a while. I built a couple of nightstands out of walnut. I finished easily 50 bf of walnut and the blades are still working fine. No noticeable wear. Not sure why the other reviewer had so much trouble with pine. Perhaps the blades were more gummed up than actually dulled.

I have had this planer for several years and have used it frequently. Delta no longer makes
this machine and therefore does not make the blades. What a shame, as the replacement blades sold here
are far inferior as those made by Delta. I dont know of any others making these blades, so I am forced to
buy them here, or invest in another planer altogether. Mainly do no like these blades because they do not last long. After surfacing about 50 bf of lodgepole pine the planer struggles to keep pace as the blades dull quickly.

Excellent product. Was just as advertised and installed with ease. Searched other places but could not find replacements with quality and price that Amazon
offered. Should have bought a spare pair just in case no one sells them in the
future. You can't go wrong with this product.

I purchased these blades as a cheaper solution to the higher costing Delta brand blades. I was able to run one 6'x6" figured maple board thru the planer, with nominal results. The second board came out with ridges, from the blades being nicked. Both boards were clean and inspected prior to running thru the planer. After a couple more passes thru the planer, the finish just got worse. I reinstalled my old, dull, Delta brand blades and finished the project.

These blades are a very good example of "You get what you pay for."

Had a big job to run through my planer - I do it right, ran the boards through 2 times to smooth boards and remove old varnish. Blades worked wonderful. No problems. Installed no problem. Wish I had ordered another set as a back up which I'm doing now.

Would not recommend this product. We were actually sent 6" scraper blades instead of 13" planer blades. I ended up buying Delta brand blades. Much better.

wrong blades shipped... shipped 6 inch blade instead of 13 inch blades
I think you should be able to tell the difference

Since Delta stopped making the blades I have been searching for an alternative. These seem to be every bit as good as the originals.

Have only used these knives for a short while but they installed perfectly and give a clean smooth cut even on figured maple, so I am very pleased. The price makes them an excellent value so far.

The blades received from this supplier are the same as or better than those available elsewhere but much lower in price. Thanks.
