What Knives should be used to in the Rockwell 37-315 8" Jointer?

Question

I am in the process of restoring a Rockwell 37-315 jointer (circa

1981). I just got it running (3 phase power) and it is all cleaned and painted. The knives are very badly chipped and I need to replace them. I found a old manual that states they need to be replaced by "cat. # 37-308." I can't find that part anywhere. It there a modern equilivnet?

Thanks,

Dan Murray

Hi DanI'm afraid I can't help you with the cutters but I just had to comment1981 jointer and you are looking for a "modern" equivalent for the cutters. Groan, now where did I leave that wheel chair?Take care and good luck in the hunt. Time for us ancients to go to bed.

Greetings and Salutations...	Sigh...for some reason, 1981 does not seem that "ancient" tome...	In any case, try contacting Delta, as they probably can getyou the replacement parts.  They won't be cheap...but likelythey can be gotten.	Of course, I suspect that there is nothing really specialor propriatary about the blades, so there should be alternativesources for them.
