Milwaukee Riving Knife
Model Number: 43-97-0010
The Milwaukee 43-97-0010 is a genuine OEM Riving Knife for use in compatible Milwaukee table saws. The riving knife is the blade-mounted anti-kickback safety device that sits directly behind the saw blade in the kerf — a curved metal plate that follows the arc of the blade and keeps the saw kerf open as the workpiece passes through the blade, preventing the two sides of the cut from pinching the blade and causing dangerous kickback. Unlike a spreader, a riving knife mounts directly to the arbor assembly and rises and lowers with the blade, maintaining the correct blade-to-knife clearance through the full depth-of-cut range. A bent, cracked, or missing riving knife that cannot maintain the correct position in the kerf is a serious safety hazard requiring immediate replacement to restore kickback protection.
Using a genuine Milwaukee OEM riving knife ensures the correct blade clearance, mounting geometry, and thickness for the table saw it serves. Always verify your catalog number and serial number on Milwaukee's website before ordering to confirm this is the correct riving knife for your specific unit.
