Why does nobody talk about how cheap clipper blades wreck your fade lines?

I used to buy the 10 dollar generic blades from Amazon thinking they were all the same. Last month I put a fresh Andis Ultra Edge on my Oster 76 and the difference was night and day. The cheap blades leave jagged edges that you have to chase with trimmers for an extra 10 minutes. Has anyone else noticed how much cleaner your blend looks with a decent blade?

I used to think cheap blades were a fine way to save money, but after switching to a decent one myself I totally get what you're saying. The jagged edges are a real pain and it just takes longer to get a clean line.

Yeah @jamies45, I was exactly the same way. Thought I was being smart with my money until I actually tried a decent blade. Now I can't go back either, the difference is night and day.
