Good power. Review: Get the SHELIX upgrade! It makes it a much better tool - Excellent tool but as notes in other reviews, the replacement blades are rather costly and don't last long on hardwoods as they don't make them in carbide (that I've found at least). We build oak timber structures and use the tool almost every day. The vital complement/upgrade to this tool is the shelix blade replacement by Byrd tools; not cheap either (at over $430) but that makes this tool much more efficient (faster wood removal, much quieter operation, blades last a good bit longer as they are carbide, and the little square blades can be rotated if ever there's a nick in one of them.). It is cheaper to buy the Shelix upgrade than the number of regular blades it replaces (one shelix blade set lasts ten times longer than the HSS standard blades which would cost over $400 for ten sets). It pays for itself with the first set, and is then much cheaper with each subsequent set (around $180 per set). Reduces man power (fewer blades to changes, less forcing on the tool when they start getting dull) and produces a smoother finish.

I looked at other brands that were way less, but junk. My planer is 5 years old and used a lot. The only service is changing the knives, and they are two sided, just turn them over. My advise purchase the KP312 **Q: can I use it as a stationary tool as well? I mean like a bench jointer?** A: I would not, I think it would be to unsafe. **Q: please advise on the tool power source, i'm looking for 240 Vac.** A: I believe you are asking for a 220 volt power sgl phase mine is a 110 volt machine , 240 volt may be 3 phase power??? don't think/ or know if it is made or offered in 3 phase set up **Q: How much ?** A: Some where north of $1700. Well worth the price. Blades are easy to change. Does a great job. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ High Quality *by W***S on February 27, 2026* High quality. Beast of a machine. Heavy, solidly built.
