Product Description
CMT 695.015.A2 Pair of Knives (A2) for Head (25x30x2mm) by CMT delivers precision-ground carbide cutting performance for spindle moulders, shapers, profiling machines, and edging machines. Designed for profile and counterprofile work of the Type A variety, these replacement knives are engineered to pair directly with compatible CMT cutter heads, giving woodworkers clean, repeatable edge profiles on a wide range of wood-based materials including hardwood, softwood, plywood, MDF, and chipboard.
Key Features
- Carbide (HW) cutting material - tungsten carbide construction holds a sharp edge longer than standard high-speed steel, reducing downtime between sharpenings during profiling and moulding work.
- 25x30x2mm knife dimensions - exact sizing ensures a secure, flush fit in the compatible cutter head with no shimming or adjustment needed, supporting accurate, repeatable profile results.
- For profiles and counterprofiles - type A - designed specifically for Type A profile and counterprofile work, making these knives the correct match for joinery, moulding, and edge-shaping applications that require complementary cutting pairs.
- Sold as a matched pair (A2 profile) - both knives in the pair are included together, so the cutter head is balanced and ready to run without sourcing individual blades separately.
Why This Product
- For woodworkers and shops running a CMT spindle moulder cutter head, these carbide knives provide a direct, manufacturer-matched replacement that maintains the head's original profile accuracy - no guesswork on compatibility or fit.
- The Type A2 profile-and-counterprofile designation means these knives are purpose-built for applications where mating profiles must align precisely, such as tongue-and-groove joinery or decorative moulding work - a task where generic knives risk profile mismatch.

Frequently Asked Questions
Which CMT cutter head is this knife pair compatible with?
These knives are designed for use with the CMT cutter head 694.015. The 25x30x2mm dimensions are specific to that head, so always verify the head model before ordering to ensure a proper fit.
What does "Type A" mean for profile and counterprofile knives?
The Type A designation identifies a specific profile geometry used in CMT's system of interchangeable knives. The A2 pair within that system produces a profile and its matching counterprofile, which is important for joinery applications where two workpiece edges must fit together cleanly - such as in tongue-and-groove or decorative moulding work.
Are these knives sold individually or as a pair?
These knives are sold as a matched pair - you receive 2 pieces (1 pair) per order. Running a balanced pair in the cutter head is essential for safe, vibration-free operation.
