The only carbide tipped knives or solid carbide knives I can find for a Makita 2040 planer are insanely expensive, $600 - $1000 for a set. Does anyone have a less expensive source?
If not, I can buy a pair of generic carbide tipped knives from American National Knife that do not have the slots for about $250. The size I need is 15 ¾ x 1 ⅜ x 5/32". How hard would it be to find a shop to edm the slots? Would the price be prohibitive? Would the blades still be flat after edm?
