01591 Fade Master Carbon Steel Replacement Blade

Great fit and product it is what they say it is awesome

5 stars in on all as of right now, 1 week in a few cuts down. Very sharp if you try to zero out it may be too close to skin. I actually got to almost zero and that helped but you still need to adjust to the finess of the blade. It will cut no need to press/heavy hand it. I don't even use my slimline pro or my T outliner for the blend on the line! Due to the flat design on the blade it can erase the line with ease. I think the blade breaks as some have reported due to adjustment of the zero'd out because when you hear the sound of something like your finger hitting the bicycle spokes it may be improperly adjusted and will obviously snap or break.

I just started to cut my own hair. I bought the Master limited edition about a month ago. I wanted a closer fade so I bought the Fade Master Blades instead of buying the Fade Master Clippers. Both the original “The Master Blade” and the “Fade Master Blade” can be used interchangeably. The Fade Master Blades are really good. They’re so easy to cut with and the results look professional. I have to say however that you have to be careful. These blades are sharp (pretty much zero gapped) and when you're using them in the fully closed position, if you are not careful, it will catch skin and cut you or your customer. The way I to fix that nuance is by pulling on the skin to make it tight in order to make it harder for the blades to catch loose skin. It cuts so close that I use it for line-ups and to clean my goatee. I'm very satisfied with the results. This was a great investment! Now I'm saving $20/week and I don't have to sit at the barbershop or for my barber to use the same clippers he's used on the rest of the world. Bottom line is the blades cut close. They are sharp, easy to cut with, and perfect for a bold fade. I don’t think this product is the best one for beginners, but amateurs and professionals will certainly love it. I would definitely recommend this product.

As another reviewer posted, the Andis logo on the static blade is not engraved but etched as you can see in the photo. Other than that, the quality feels good, the prongs arent bent or broken. My Andis Masters are still being ready for shipment by the actual Andis company since I bought it off their website. I prefer to buy clippers and trimmers from the manufacturer than on Amazon because of the fact that maybe you'll receive a used one or claims to be the real one but ain't. I will post another review once I get my clippers and slap these bad boys on there. I bought these fade master blades to get a better blend from the zero line but will use my 1919s for actual fading.

Perfect fit. Mine were well overdue

First off to those that say the blade gets under the skin are wrong. Unless either 1. The clients head is sweaty and it tugs (which can havppen with a fade or taper blade), 2. You're a beginner barber with no experience with a regular taper blade. The fade blade is completely flat and extremely skinny at by the top teeth (moving blade). That means you cut more hair and more precisely. Also noting if you you try to dig into the skull to fade out lines (with this blade you do not need to), then you with get into your clients skin and tug. The taper blade is angled at the tip which means you have to tilt your clipped into the head to get the most of your cut. Fade blade knocks out lines easier than my Wahl Legends (my hitters), which amazed me. Anyways, it's great blade or clipper once you get light handed or fluent with the clipper in your hand! For $20 i'd rather pay that then spend an extra 10 mins taking out a line with my outliners!

This blade it fantastic. it cuts like butter, but that's not to say this blade is made for beginners. Here why, since this blade is extremely pointy, it can easily dig into the person skin and tug and pull, sometimes even make them bleed depending on what kind of angle you are working with. when installing this blade do not gap it like you would. it gets close. you also have to have a very light hand cause if not. its going to be very uncomfortable for the client. pros: it cuts like butter on hair durable sharpness lasts a long time on the blade cons: its very sharp so you have to be careful it can get hot if you take too long will buy this again when i need another.

I used this blade to replace my normal Master blade. So I basically turned my Master buzzer into a Fade Master buzzer. I’m really happy with the way it cuts. It was tricky to zero but I eventually got it after some adjusting.
