FOXBC 22-562, 12-1/2 in knives for Delta, set of 2
A two-knife set for four named Delta machines — the only Delta fitment on either half of this shelf.
Every figure below names its source. Each one is a manufacturer
specification read off the listing itself. The judgments are ours.
Two knives, and that is the machine talking
A two-knife cutterhead puts two edges per revolution into the timber. A
three-knife head puts three, which is a finer feed per cut at the same feed rate
and a smoother surface.
The DeWalt DW735 sets on this shelf are threes because that machine has a
three-knife head. This is a two because the named Delta machines have two.
The count is not a property of the knives. It is a property of the head, and
getting it wrong leaves a gap in it.
Four machines, and a Delta part number
The 22-560, the 22-565, the TP305 and the TP400LS, replacing Delta 22-562.
Four model names sharing one knife says Delta used the same head across a range —
which also means the knife is likely to stay available.
The published 260 mm (10.2 in) knives on this shelf name no machine at all, and their page
ends there: machine-specific, check the length against your cutterhead.
A planer knife is bought by its section, not by its machine name.
Length sets which cutterhead it spans. Width sets how far it projects past the
clamping bar. Thickness sets whether the clamp closes on it at all. A knife an
eighth of an inch too long will not seat; one a tenth of a millimeter too thick
will not clamp.
Which is why the machine list on a listing is a convenience and the three
dimensions are the specification — and why two listings on this shelf for the same
DeWalt part publish two different lengths.
And reversible is not stated
The maker’s DW735 and DW734 listings on this shelf both say double-edged or
reversible outright.
This one does not mention it.
So whether these knives carry one edge or two is unknown from the page — and that
halves or doubles what the set is worth. It is the figure to ask the seller for.
