Does anyone have experience with the DW735 planer? The features look
terrific, especially the dust ejection feature since I won't have dust
collection available. I am concerned with the many posts complaining about
short-lived knives. Are there knife quality issues with this machine or
are
these guys getting the results of bad techniques? Are they expecting
industrial machine performance from a home-shop tool?

Thanks for any feedback.

It has disposable blades. Short lived IMHO. I have a portable Ryobi that
has multi-resharpenable blades that are the originals. The planer is 18
years old. That said however about the only to get decent blades any more
is to go stationary.
