Oster Professional Replacement Blade, Classic 76/Star-Teq/Power-Teq Clippers, Size #2, 1/4" Hair Trimmer Blade for Men's Grooming

Never disappointed me .’ This blade is sharp and durable.

Purchased this #2 blade for side tapering and a gentle square back from 3 3/4. Smoother results than using a 000 blade with a comb attachment. Faster too. You get what you pay for with Oster blades. They perfectly fit comparable clippers (like my Oster 76), last a long time with proper care, and deliver barber shop results.

OK.....this works will as you would expect, but this review is for do it yourself hair cutters. My story. Years ago, I went to barber shops (and a mall discount hair salon once, but that is another story) Anyway, I was starting to get pretty thin on the top. Having no desire to run for president, I always instructed the barber that I DIDN'T want a comb over and they should cut the top short. They never did. I would end up going home and re-cutting the top and sides of the top myself with an old pet clippers I had (I never ended up clipping the dog with it) using one of those plastic combs that clip on. It didn't take too long before I skipped the barber completely and just cut the whole thing myself. My wife would do the bottom of the back. Anyway, this went on for more years than you would believe until the old pet clippers finally started to die. I got an Oster76 and found that with the replaceable blades, I could use it without the plastic clip on comb. The size 2 works well for me. I only have about 9 hairs left on the top and this blade makes the rest of my head just the right length so the hair is short, but I don't look like my head was shaved.

I have ordered several of this brand and the result is always great. No video cause I’m just teaching myself from videos 🏅

Bought an Oster 76 Classic clipper, along with a #1.5 and #2 blade for haircut purposes. This was a pretty big initial money layout, but has saved me several hundred dollars thus far on haircuts for my three young boys. I have no formal barber training and after several rounds of practice (where I would practice doing fades then just buzz down my hack job one clipper size for an even cut), I got quite good at the fade and can now give barber shop quality haircuts to my three boys. I attribute this less to my skills and more to the fact that the Oster 76 and these blades work terrific. They are very durable, they cut precise and what you see in the picture is what you get delivered. The blades are professional quality, exactly what my barber uses, and will last years. At $15+tip/haircut x 3 boys x 12 months = $720/year, this system has more than paid for itself. Plus, it is kind of fun giving haircuts. After seeing my boys, several family and friends have asked me to cut their hair, too, so I can only figure I am doing a pretty good job.
