I am in need of sharper jointer knives.
I have a Delta 37-196 6" jointer, and the knives are in need of sharpening. I would really like to have two sets of knives on hand (one mounted and one stand by). The price of Delta knives is breath taking ($70+ for HSS). The knives are 6 1/8" x 5/8"x 3/32".
I have an old set of HSS knives, that are the correct length and width(from a previous jointer), but they are 1/8" thick. Would there be a problem with these?
On the other hand I can get Amana knives, of the correct dimension for about $25 + shipping.
Thanks in advance for your help.
