I have the older version of the Ridgid planer, the TP1300. Although it has the 2 knife cutterhead, it still does a good jobe for me. The only caveat for me is the limited availability of knives. My HD is about 25 miles away and it seems they only ever stock a couple sets. When I do find them, I always buy 2-3 sets, if they have that many. Nothing worse than getting there and they have 0 in stock. I have gotten a few deals on eBay though. Anyway, after 6 yrs, my 1300 is still going strong…no real regrets
