For Powermatic PM1000 Table Saws. The riving knife rises and lowers with the blade, thus maintaining very small clearance between itself and the blade. This helps prevent rotational kickback by keeping the kerf from binding when it has cleared the blade.
The low profile knife sits just below the apex of the blade, and doesn’t require removal when doing non-through cuts. The thin kerf feature allows the use of thinner blades to reduce kerf waste.
Although I've operated a table saw for decades without a riving knife and without incident (taking care works wonders), with a new Powermatic saw and two thin kerf and two full kerf blades I decided to get a thin kerf knife. I have a call into Powermatic on how to adjust the holder for the thin blade, but it's from Powermatic so all should be fine. Oak Tree had the best price and delivered it quickly.
