hey guys,
Quick question to those who have used the Felder Diamond blade.?
?
I recently obtained the AKE diamond SuperSilent 3 Universal from SauterShop.? I believe the Felder diamond blade is just a rebranded version of the the AKE blade. FYI, this saves about $125 compared to buying directly from Felder.?
?
So I bought one after seeing some glowing reviews noted online/social media.?
?
First impression is that the blade is definitely more quiet.?
Worlds different than the 400mm 4mm kerf Felder blade my Kappa 450 shipped with. I love that aspect of this blade.?
?
With that being said, I am definitely getting some noticeable saw marks on various cuts. Not quite a glassy smooth as I was hoping for.
I've seen this has been noted by others on various posts here on the forums. Mostly noticeable on hardwoods, maple, etc.?
?
To others who have this blade, or have used it, any pointers to help reduce these??
Blade height? feed speed? Blade rotational speed?? etc??
?
The riving knife I am using is a 1.9mm knife which was recommended by AKE directly and hence sold by SauterShop.
I see Felder recommends a 2.0 knife. Curious if that has any effect.?
?
?
Thanks
?
