The Andis UltraEdge Size 10 Blade is a professional-grade attachment designed for high-precision pet grooming. It leaves hair at a consistent length of 1.5mm, making it the industry standard for close-trimming tasks. This blade is specifically engineered for sensitive and detailed areas, including the pet's face, paw pads, and stomach, providing a clean finish without the risk of pulling or uneven cuts.
Constructed from carbon-infused steel, the blade undergoes an advanced hardening process to create a harder, more durable cutting surface. This robust composition ensures the teeth remain sharp through frequent use, maintaining a reliable performance over time. To protect against the moisture and oils encountered during grooming, the blade is finished with a chrome coating that actively resists corrosion and rust.
This blade is part of a detachable system, meaning it is compatible with most Andis clippers as well as other professional brands that accept A5-style blades. Its specialized design allows it to glide smoothly over the skin, reducing the friction that can lead to irritation. Whether you are performing a sanitary trim or prepping a coat for a longer comb attachment, this blade provides the structural reliability needed for efficient home grooming.

Why You’ll Love It
The Andis UltraEdge Size 10 is a dependable choice for pet owners who want a blade that lasts. You will find that the carbon steel stays sharp much longer than standard stainless steel blades, meaning you won’t have to replace or sharpen it as frequently. Its ability to resist rust via the chrome coating is a major practical benefit for those who groom their pets immediately after a bath.
The 1.5mm length is highly versatile; it is short enough to clear away hair from paw pads to prevent slipping but long enough to provide a protective layer on the skin. You will appreciate the steady, smooth performance it offers when working on difficult, sensitive areas. It is a no-nonsense, heavy-duty tool that simplifies the most technical parts of your pet's grooming routine.
