Default Freud knives for Jet jj-6csx jointer?

Hopefully Charles will see this. I need knives for this jointer. Wondering if Freud makes them. I'm looking at the c350 and c400 sets. The c400 set is 6 1/8 X 11/16 X 1/8" which looks to be real close to what I have on the jointer.
If not Freud, any suggestions besides the expensive, and not long lasting Jet knives will be appreciated.

HI Mike

You may want to take a hard look at the item below they will last and last, plus when one gets dull just replace one of the cutters,,, it's not cheap but it will last forever.

Mike,

I have the Jet JJ-6CSX jointer.

I've ordered Freud knives from Amazon. They are on the jointer now and seem to be okay but are a tad shorter than the Jet originals. I have also ordered from Global Tooling. They seem to be as good as the others and are less expensive. They are the same size as the Jet originals.

Thanks Tom. Looks like this one fits.

I can get Freud ordered locally, but there are 2 sizes. The c350 and c400 knives.
I'll have to take a blade out of the jointer, but I know they are 6 1/16" long.

Mike,

For 6-1/16" X 5/8" X 1/8" you could get the C350 and be within 1/16" or you can order the C100 (25" X 5/8" X 1/8") cut into three 6-1/16" lengths. There is no additional charge for cutting to length.

Thanks Charles. I took the blades out and measured them. 6 1/16 X 11/16 X 1/8 so that puts them at the c400 size. Correct?

I noticed on the Freud website that there seems to be no direct link to jointer knives. You can search for the part number, but that was the only way I found them.

They are hidden under the Power Tools heading:

If 11/16" is the correct width I recommend that you order the C400 and have us cut them to 6-1/16" to be sure they fit properly.
