CMT 3-Piece High-Speed Steel Planer and Jointer Knives - 8 in. Length are precision-ground replacement blades engineered for stationary planers and jointer machines. Carefully ground from fine European high-speed steel with a 13% tungsten (13%W) composition, these knives deliver a consistently smooth, high-quality surface finish on a wide range of lumber types. Whether you are smoothing dry softwood framing stock or surfacing wet or dry hardwood, this set of three replacement planer knives provides the cutting performance and edge retention needed for professional-grade results.

Key Features

• High-Speed Steel with 13% Tungsten (13%W) Composition - the elevated tungsten content gives these planer blades superior hardness and heat resistance, translating to longer cutting life between sharpenings compared to standard carbon steel knives.
• Precisely Ground from Fine European High-Speed Steel - careful European HSS grinding ensures consistent edge geometry across all three knives, so every pass across your planer or jointer delivers a uniform, flat surface with minimal tearout.
• Suitable for Dry Softwood, Dry Hardwood, and Wet Hardwood - versatile material compatibility means one set of knives handles the full range of common lumber types found in woodworking shops and millwork operations.
• High-Quality Finish Performance - these knives are engineered specifically to produce a smooth, ready-to-finish surface, reducing sanding time and follow-up work after planing or jointing.
• Set of 3 Knives Included - provides a complete replacement set for the full cutterhead, ensuring balanced cutting and proper machine operation after a knife change.
• Dimensions: 8 in. x 5/8 in. x 1/8 in. - precise sizing allows these HSS planer knives to serve as direct replacements in machines that accept this standard knife profile, minimizing setup time.
