It was time to replace the knives that came with my DeWALT 735 planer and rather than buying another set of straight knives, I upgraded to a helical cutter head. In this video I compare the performance between the OEM straight knives vs. the upgraded helical cutter head and provide my thoughts on whether or not the $500 investment is worth it.

This is not intended to be a step-by-step installation video. For those people seeking that content, go check out Ben's video at Meyer's workshop. He has a fantastic step-by-step tutorial and explains it better than I ever could: [ Ссылка ]
