bought the dewalt 735 10 days ago. I've sized approx. 6 bf 5/4 hard maple to 1" and 6 bf 4/4 walnut to 3/4" at a scant 1/32" to a heavy 1/64" per pass. All in all approximately 130 passes on 8 boards say approx. 6" x 24". Knives are already knicked in several places. Is this sort of wear to be expected on high speed steel knives? Am I rushing it by taking too much off? I never saw any foreign material in the wood
