OsterCryogen-X Pet Clipper Blade, 4.70 x 3.50 x 11.75 inches, SILVER

good quality and durability, used by my wife which is a pro pet barber, if she is happy with it than all is good!

I have tons of blades, but somehow ended up with only one 4F, which I use all the time. I bought this to let me have one blade off being sharpened and one blade to use. It has what appear to be genuine Oster markings and worked when I put it in my clippers and turned it on, with the teeth moving back and forth as they should. It seemed very sharp, especially compared to my old dull 4F. Very pleased with this purchase.

First of all, I am NOT a groomer! But I do have three small dogs: 2 long coat chihuahuas, and one Peke/Shitzu mix. The blade did not work on the chihuahuas, pulling at their coat and generally making a mess. However, the Peke/Shitzu mix has a different fine coat quality and the blade worked beautifully on him!! Bottom line for me is that since I purchased the blade specifically for him, I am very happy with it -- but I won't try to use it on the other two dogs again. Groomers probably already know which blades to use on which dogs, and it would be helpful if manufacturers put something in their descriptions that would help us amateurs choose.

Bought an A5 turbo Oster A5 Turbo 2-Speed Professional Animal Clipper  so we could start doing our own dog grooming instead of paying a lot every few months. The A5 cuts very short with the supplied blade (which is intended for face and very short hair areas). We realized we would need attachments or this blade. I am very happy we went for this blade to get the right length for our shih tzu mixes instead of attachments. It works fantastic!

My wife and I bought these to trim our two toy poodles hair. Don't listen to those saying skip tooth blades are horrible. My wife and I are not professional dog groomers and we have no problem. It was need because of the thick coat of extremely fine hair on one of my poodles. Makes the initial cut a lot easier then we follow it up with the finishing blade. It is a good length for winter and also summer. I beleive it cuts about 5/8". Oster always has great products.

still sharp and going good

We have a Golden Retriever with VERY thick fur that will basically shave every may due to the very hot temps down south. Our trimmer came with a #10 blade. It was too fine to cut her thick fur. We bought this #4 blade and it does work much better, but we still have problems where her fur is very thick or matted. We have to pre-cut those areas with scissors. I still would buy this blade again and it is a very high quality product.
