I installed these on a Shop Fox 8" dovetail jointer. They are a tad taller than stock blades so there was a little learning curve installing and adjusting. Take your time, they are very sharp (as expected).I purchased two 3 packs because the jointer has 4 blades. I will likely buy more. The price is fair considering they are pretty decent quality.

I was a bit leery since a couple of reviews suggested that these were not legit Freud knives... my evaluation is that they are. They were well balanced, straight, sharp and seem to hold the edge very well. I'm satisfied that I got the real thing. Recommended

I spent the extra money because I saw the Freud brand and have always had good success with them in the past. Looking at the blades first thing I noticed was their edges were not straight. One was cupped, one was bowed and one was just dull. Figured the cup and bow would cancel out and I can honed the dull one. In a rush and have an order I need to get done.Go to install them and it’s going easy enough with the knife jig I have. Get two in and on to the third. And then I realized it’s the wrong size. It’s a solid 1/8 taller than the other two. I’m not putting these in my machine to vibrate it apart or having to adjust the out feed table up an 1/8 inch.Packed ‘em up and send them back. Come on Freud!

These were bought for a ~35 y/o Rockwell/Delta 8" long bed jointer (37-315) to replace original knives that had been sharpened down to nearly nothing. While they are nominally the correct size one was a very tight fit in its slot and this added an unwelcome level of difficulty to the installation (sharp edges creep me out!). Whether the slot or the knife was the source of the inaccuracy I can't say. Nevertheless, they were eventually installed satisfactorily and, with about an hour of use already, they work fine - nice clean surfaces. 3 stars for the installation, 5 stars for the surfaces.

I was really nervous about this purchase. I read several comments about how the blades aren't sharp. Plus, the image provided was terrible - it made the blade look like a counterfeit.That's not what I found. They are very sharp. In fact, even the back edge is almost razor sharp! Seriously, I was really surprised at that.I inspected the blades with a loupe that I use for sharpening. They have a razor edge. Hardly any leading edge to see or reflect light. These are as sharp as I can get something going down to 4000 grit. Either some folks got bad blades or they'd say I have really low standards. But when I sharpen a hand plane, it shaves pretty nicely.

These were listed much cheaper (about six teen dollars) than any jointer blades that fit my grizzly jointer (G1182). Only problem with these; they are too long at 6.5 inches. This is probably why they are so cheap. I have not seen too many 6.5" jointers. I knew they were too long when buying them.I used my abrasive cutoff wheel to trim them to the correct length, which took about 30 seconds and worked well. A little cleanup on my wire wheel, and i have a cheap set of knives to alternate in. The fit is fine other than the length.I installed and ran through some test Cherry, then went to work on some knotty yellow pine, and face jointed some 6" fir. No issues. cut is clean, and blades remain sharp. Seems to be a very good deal for my application. I ordered a second set now that I know it's not to difficult to trim them to length. Not sure about durability, but for the price, you cant go wrong, and I'll always have a sharp set using a decent sharpening service.

I recently nicked the irons in my Steel City long bed jointer and found that I could not grind/sharpen the problems away. I called our local tool supply house and found that they wanted $33 per iron (read that as $99 for the set of 3) for replacements.I searched for alternatives on line and stumbled across this offer from Freud/Amazon. I purchased the set of 3 irons for about $25 and within a couple of days I had the new irons in hand/installed.Over the past month I've smoothed about 500 linear feet of 6 inch wide, rough sawn 5/4 cherry and beech with these Freud knives and they have handled it perfectly. They worked so well that I ordered another set (as spares). I would recommend these highly as a great product/great value.

These knives appear to be of excellent quality. They have an excellent finish on all surfaces. Grinding marks are almost invisible. I have several sets of various brands that are 30 to 40 years old ( back when quality was important) and these look much better. It's cheaper to buy new knives than to sharpen old ones and the quality of the sharpening is far from satisfactory. The only negative feature on the Freud blades is the burr left from sharpening. It will be an easy task to hone these which I expected I'd have to do when I ordered them. I'm sure they will perform as good as they look. I'm very pleased with these and highly recommend them.

I have purchased many sets of these for my Jet jointer (Model JJ-6CS), which I've owned for ten years. They are about half the price some places want for the factory replacements. I have been using them for years (I believe I've purchased 8 sets). They last as well as the original blades. I've also bought the 6" x 5/8. Both seem to work equally well. I went to the 3/4" because I figured I could get another resharpen or two out of thicker blades, though with the price it's about as easy just to order new blades. Why pay full price for factory replacements? Freud typically has quality router bits and this hasn't diminished on their knives.
