I have a Delta 37-196 Jointer.
It is a 6" jointer and the time to get new knives is coming up.
As far as I can tell, the 37-196 is exactly like the Delta 37-195 jointer.
I do know that they take the same replacement knives from Delta.
The model of the replacement knives from Delta is 37-658...
These Delta knives cost around $50 on average.
Most aftermarket knives are half that.
Here is what I am trying to find out.
I went to Freud's website to pick up some knives and they only go by size.
Nowhere in my owner's manual does it state the size of these knives.
I looked at a couple of stores online but they all list the exact same knives as being different sizes.
Can anybody tell me what sized knives are compatible with this Jointer...or any jointer that takes the Delta 37-658 knives?
Thanks
