CMT Solid Carbide Reversible Knives - 28x14x2mm, 30 deg. Bevel, 2-Edge, 10-Pack are precision-ground tungsten carbide insert knives engineered for consistent profiling, molding, and edge-shaping performance on spindle moulders, profile machines, and router tables equipped with compatible insert cutter heads. Each knife in this 10-pack measures 28mm in total length, 14mm in cutting depth, and 2mm in plate thickness, with a 30 deg. cutting angle that delivers clean, repeatable results across hardwood, softwood, MDF, chipboard, and plywood. The reversible design gives each knife two usable cutting edges, so when one edge dulls, a simple rotation restores a fresh cutting surface without replacing the entire knife - maximizing cost efficiency and minimizing downtime at the machine.

Key Features

• K1920 Solid Carbide Material - tungsten carbide construction delivers significantly longer service life compared to HSS alternatives, especially when cutting abrasive materials like MDF and chipboard where edge retention is critical.
• Reversible 2-Edge Design - each knife provides two cutting edges at 30 deg., so rotating to a fresh edge extends usable life and reduces the cost-per-cut over time, making this pack highly economical for production environments.
• 30 deg. Bevel Angle - the precise 30 deg. cutting geometry produces clean shear cuts across hardwood and softwood grain, reducing tear-out and improving surface finish quality on profiled edges.
• 28x14x2mm Precision Dimensions - ground to exact tolerances with a 14mm cutting height and 2mm teeth thickness, these knives seat accurately and repeatably in compatible insert cutter head systems, ensuring profile consistency across production runs.
• 10-Piece Pack - bulk packaging keeps replacement knives on hand so production is never interrupted by a missing insert, supporting continuous operation in professional shop environments.

Why This Product

• Two cutting edges per knife mean you are never discarding a partially used insert - simply reverse the knife in the cutter head to restore a sharp 30 deg. edge, stretching your tooling budget further across demanding production schedules.
• The K1920 carbide grade is formulated to maintain edge integrity when cutting abrasive engineered materials such as MDF, chipboard, and plywood - applications where softer tool steels wear rapidly and produce degraded surface finish.
• At 28x14x2mm with a 6.4mm bore diameter, these knives are dimensioned to fit CMT-compatible insert shaper systems, making them a straightforward drop-in replacement for worn inserts without the need for custom fitting or modification.
• A 10-pack format ensures you have adequate stock for full cutter head changes, knife rotation cycles, and backup inventory - practical for shops running multi-shift profiling or moulding operations where unplanned downtime is costly.
