Corrugated back Thin Flat Planer Knives. Steel Grade - D2-HCHC. Thickness - 5/32“, Widths – 1-1/4”, 1/1/2”, 1-3/4”, Bevel - 30 degree.

We stock a wide selection of precision knives - cut, packed, and balanced in pairs.

Our D2 (AISI) knives offer the best value for many moulding producers and planer mills. D2 offers the lowest price per bar because it has a Rockwell C hardness (HRC) of 58. It is easy to sharpen and resists nicks in knotty soft woods. D2 contains 12% chromium to resist chemical erosion when cutting wet cedar or redwood. Great for softwoods and shorter runs in hardwoods. Our knives are high end precision made to ISO specifications. We start with raw AISI forged steel salt bath heat treated for consistent hardness, triple draw tempered (stress relieved) then precision thickness horizontal ground to a fine finish and exacting tolerances.

Steel Grade - V2-HSS - High Speed Steel. Thickness - 5/32“, Widths – 1-1/4”, 1/1/2”, 2”, Bevel - 30 degree.

We stock a wide selection of precision knives - cut, packed, and balanced in pairs.

V2 is an exotic breed of HSS with extra Vanadium for long life. V2 offers the same wear life and performance as M2-HSS, but at a 25% lower cost. By increasing the levels of Vanadium to replace more expensive Molybdenum we have developed a blend of steel with excellent tool life and the lowest price of any HSS on the market. V2 has a 63 Rc. Great for most long runs in soft or hardwoods.
