Makita planer blades:

I'm not rating the replacement blades I bought, I'm rating the originals. I bought replacements because I figured I'd need them soon. I was wrong. The originals just keep going and going. I'm impressed! The replacements, which are Makita brand are exactly the same as the originals.

Sharp little suckers:

Check your blades. This goes for all brands of planers. The dullness factor creeps in ever so slowly and you may not be aware that your blades are too dull. I felt the old blades and they seemed sharp, but the normally fairly quiet Makita seemed too loud and the boards were not sliding smoothly through.
The new blades were obviously much sharper and things went back to normal once installed. The Amazon price was the lowest I saw and they arrived quickly, although strangely packed in a big torn-up... more info

good life:

I've used these blades for kiln dried oak, walnut, cherry and some poplar and pine. None of these present real challenges in terms of wear on the blade or tear out in the wood, but the blades last a long time and give an excellent finish for me.
