Are these as sharp as the originals that come with the 5 Star (65T)? My blades cut very close before they were dropped and blade teeth were broken.

Yes, replacing the broken blade with this particular blade enhance my cutting ability. Also, with blade bring flat, u will cut better than the original blade that come on the clippers. I wanted to cut a closer fade, so I replace the original. You will like how this blade definitely cut.

In my opinion, these blades are far better than the originals that came with my shears. The cut quality I receive with these blades is far superior and cleaner than originals.

Yes. Very reliable. Replace blades when the cutter begins to leave occasional threads. I've had several sizes and these are my favorites.

These blades won't fit the real old models. No, it's just the blades, not the holder. I had a real old one too and couldn't find parts so when I got the newer one I also ordered extra blades. These new blades are very sharp and stay sharp longer. We have gone through five 50 bags of the oversized potatoes and haven't had to replace the original blade. After we pealed them we ran them for several more rounds and cut the strips into hash browns. Then ran long straight part of the potato through a fry cutter . We deep fried them for 3 minutes, after they cooled, we bagged them and then into the freezer.

The blades on my Fiskars appear to be replaceable but they are fairly new and they work amazingly easy. I also know that the company stands behind their products forever.

My blade starting catching after a fair bit of use. I had them sharpened by Ace and that did not help. For about $22 you can buy new ones and they have been great, so far. Clipping hair when clean helps prolong the life of the blade tremendously.

I tried a set of the Freud blades and was happy with them. I have run a bit of wood through these blades and they seem to cut just as well. I guess I'll find out how well they last in the long run. I think most of these blades are probably made by the same company and everyone puts their name on them. Laying the Freud, Ridgid and these out together I can't see any difference in them. I guess in a couple of months I'll find out if they hold up as well.

They are not sharper than the originals I found that my other ones were sold out that I thought the same thing as you but that was not the case try using the smallest guard possible to keep it from cutting into your skin until the dull out a little bit I think there's a half for a1 inch that you could use for guard I don't think you installed them incorrectly although I don't have a picture or anything but you would not be able to use the Clippers they would make a horrible sound and would definitely not work I hope this helps good luck

I think they are. I use mine a lot and I only watch out for the top blade loping my finger off. They are excellent by the way. AND I never lose them.

I don't think they are. I just got them and I was expecting sharp blades and found there are brand new but not sharp at all. These do not serve my need at all. Either I send them back or find someone to sharpen them, I clearly cannot use these blades as they are!

they are pretty sharp...i did take a flap disk sander wheel on a grinder to mine just to knock the paint off...i was waiting for the oil to drain anyway ...these blades are much thicker and i'm sure they will last 2x as long as the factory blades

I installed a pair on my 42" TimeSaver with Side Discharge just for giggles, grins, and why not? They are holding up to Florida's sandy soil very well and hold an edge well cutting Bahia - That is high praise! They are on track to last longer and cut better than OEM blades and I plan to replace these with another set when the time comes. Consider too that in Florida we have to mow about 10 months out of the year and at least weekly in the long hot months.

Blades were the exact length as the original blades I removed from my Craftsman 54" mowing deck. They appeared to be more heavy duty blades than the original equipment...wider and thicker... No issues with uncut strips...I'd purchase them again.

Yes they are. They are made of 440 stainless steel so they are brittle. But they are extremely sharp.

Yes, loosen the two screws on the old blade and remove the blades, then replace them with these new blades. You should have no problem at all.

I believe they are available from Amazon. I've never replaced the blade myself.

Mine worked very well they are sharper than expected. You just have to keep in mind that they are small, paper, stray beard hairs, gorilla tape. Cut them all pretty good for me.
