Wahl Professional - Adjusto-Lock 3 Hole Clipper Blade #1026-001 - for Wahl

I was going to replace my entire clipper because it wasn't cutting as well but realized all I had to do was order this replacement blade, which saved $$$, it was very easy to install, and now the clipper cuts hair again just like when it was brand new! Super happy with the price, quick shipping, and quality of the product!

Good

great quality. I love Wahl products. Very accurate milling. lines up properly for my Wahl clippers

I purchased these blades expecting a functional product, but the bottom blade is completely misaligned. This issue makes it impossible to use the clippers effectively. The blades don’t even make contact properly, meaning they don’t cut hair at all. For something as straightforward as clipper blades, this level of poor quality control is unacceptable. Avoid this product unless you want to waste your time and money!

I have a 3-hole Wahl Senior aka Wahl 8500, and at the time knew of two possible choices for blades - the Standard Choice #1005 or the "Closer Cut" of the #0000/1026 (this one). I thought I would throw a few bucks at the #0000/1026 to see how it would fare, and unfortunately it did not work out for me. I never knew I had two "? razor bumps ?" on my neck, but the closer cut finds them every time and the blood starts to flow. You'd think the "? bump ?" would have the decency to be sliced off or something, but I get a fresh cut every time. Slicing up the skin makes the #0000/1026 a poor choice for me, so will fall back to the #1005. Looks like it's obvious is hindsight - #0000/1026 is a tighter/more-narrow "cut" than the #1005. Depends on how you use it, I suppose. HOWever, when I use the #0000/1026 with one of my little "clipper guides" that slide over the blades, it's perfect and can trim facial hair without complaints. Have not yet tried the #1026 for Cutting Hair to see if it snags or not, as the only head I have (mine) seems to not want to volunteer for this purpose. I'll have to wait until some Sacrificial Lamb hair grows out enough for testing. Update: Eventually tried it on the back of my head without it snagging/pulling hair, but my hair type (straight) does not cover every other head on the planet. Minor Update in August 2019: Over the last year the 0000/1026 blade has run it's course, and have pulled it in favor of new set of 1005s. For what it is worth, have included a picture of both blades side-by-side (1005 on the Left and 0000/1026 on the Right). One can see that the "tines" on the 0000/1026 blade are MUCH closer together.than those on the 1005. If you need a closer cut then the 0000/1026 is the blade for you! Minor Update in September 2019: As the 0000/1026/etc and the 1005/etc are both Three Hole Blades, I did a bit more checking and Wahl makes multiple types of blades for how the purchaser intends to USE a given razor. I noticed a **THIRD** type of Three Hole Blade known as the 1005-100. I called Wahl to ask and was told that the 1005-100 is a "more curved blade" and thus better suited for cutting hair. The 1005 is a "more flat blade" and so better suited for running along one's skin w/o using a guard. So 1005 = better for "shaving/beards" and 1005-100 = better for "cutting hair" whilst the 0000/1026 = a MUCH closer cut (see picture). Just like vacuum cleaners have different attachments, so there are different blades for different purposes. Trick is to find out which one suits your personal needs and purchase that one. Ex: While the 0000/1026 would be too close a cut for my particular neck, the 1005-100 would be the exact opposite. If I didn't use either "directly against my skin", all three types would work flawlessly - for me at least.

Fit perfectly

No complaints, it cuts hair like it's designed too and fit on my wall clipper

This does not work in a wahl sterling clipper

bon produit de qualité
