: vermont-american makes a 7 1/4" "hollow ground planer"

I had a bit of trouble with the 7 1/4 vermont american blade. ended up ruining some nice lumber. We switched to a 7 1/4 Dewalt finish it worked great. I use a fine tooth diablo now on my saw works as good or better than the dewalt. The vermont american is cheap but if it screws up some boards than it isn't that cheap. besides it isn't even made in vermont.
