Have two sheep that have wool that have always been hard to shear. Their wool traps dirt and weed seeds better then velcro. With these cutters and a new comb I able to shear them with no problem!

These are awesome! After buying a new 4000s with a dull spitfire from the start, I was impressed with how well this blade ripped through unwashed llama wool. Made it though two llamas and still holds a good edge. Ceramic for me from now on.

Love these ceramic cutters. Have been using them for several years now.

Great service by Premier and Speedy Delivery. Will use them with 9 tooth combs to shear lambs next summer.

This blade was purchased to use on my Stewert Shearmaster clippers. Per Premier it "should fit". My research elsewhere also said it should fit. It doesn't. The spacing of the holes is too close to fit the Shearmaster. I modified it by drilling two new holes in the appropriate spots. To drill ceramic, you need a drill press, a diamond encrusted blade using water for lubrication and cooling. Also, patience, patience, patience. The blade I used was a 5mm diamond blade obtained from Amazon, 10 blades for about $10.00. 3 mm or 4mm will be closer to the correct hole size. Worked very well. I will be buying more ceramic cutters as needed knowing they can be modified to fit my clipper.
