Set of 2 Thicknesser Knives 330×16.5×2 mm – HSS 211 | With Guide Holes
Set of 2 professional high-speed steel HSS 211 knives for thicknessing and planing machines (portable benchtop planer/thicknesser), 330 mm working width. Equipped with calibrated guide holes for quick positioning pins — the knives sit directly on the drum pins, eliminating manual calibration with magnetic jigs. Compatible with Makita 2012NB and other similar 330 mm machines with pin-fixing systems.

✨ ADVANTAGES:
-
Guide Holes – Instant Alignment: knives position directly on the drum pins, no complicated manual calibration with magnetic jigs. Fast change, guaranteed millimeter-perfect alignment.
-
HSS 211 – Optimized for Thicknessing: the alloy absorbs repeated mechanical shocks when processing rough beams and boards, resisting impact with hard knots without micro-chipping or dulling of the edge.
-
Uniform Cut on 330 mm: precision grinding along the entire length of the knife ensures impeccable flatness across the full width of the wood, without streaks or unevenness.
-
💡 Workshop Tip: when changing knives, clean the guide pins and the drum housing of compacted resin and sawdust — any residue under the knife can create a small angle that spoils the flatness of the cut.
⚠️ CAUTION:
-
Check compatibility before ordering – dimensions and position of guide holes vary between models. Confirm that your machine uses 330×16.5×2 mm knives with positioning pins.
- Always mount both knives simultaneously with uniform tightening — drum imbalance causes vibrations and uneven cuts.
- Do not use knives with chipped edges or deformities — risk of breakage at high speeds.
