Josh Hall ordered a set of Carbide Tipped Planner Blades through Tool Depot in San Diego for his Skil 100. They are sweet. He put them in over a year and a half ago, and they are still sharp as can be. Tool Depot said they would have to special oder a pair, so I just called Skil, and they hooked me up with American National Knife, who makes the planer blades that Tool Depot can special order for you. I called A.N.K., and they were very helpful, informative, and eager to help me irder the right blades for my machine. They make brand new blades for all machines, including the Skil 100, 190, and 676. You can order traditional steel blades, or carbide tipped (which will last 10 times longer), or solid carbide blades. They range from $16 per pair to what I paid to have them shipped priority to my door, $62.
Skil still carries drive belts, but they get their knives from A.N.K.
