Description
Overview:
The Makita Riving Knife 163461-6 is a genuine safety component for the LF1000 flip-over circular saw range, including the LF1000 and LF1000 260mm models. Made from tough steel, it sits behind the saw blade to keep the kerf open, helping to prevent timber from closing onto the blade and reducing the risk of kickback. A correctly fitted riving knife also helps guide the workpiece for smoother, straighter cuts and supports safer operation during ripping and cross-cutting. Designed to match the original mounting and profile on the LF1000 series, it restores manufacturer-intended performance when the original knife is bent, worn, or missing. As a Genuine Makita part, 163461-6 offers dependable fit and function for everyday trade and workshop use.
