The Andis UltraEdge Size 15 Blade is a professional-grade precision tool designed for close-trimming tasks. It leaves the hair at a consistent length of 1.2mm, placing it between the surgical-close Size 30 and the standard detail Size 10. This specific length makes it a highly effective choice for grooming sensitive and intricate areas such as the face, the stomach (sanitary trims), and between the paw pads.
Forged from carbon-infused steel, the blade undergoes an advanced hardening process to create a durable cutting surface that maintains its edge through repeated use. The material is chosen for its high-performance reliability on various coat textures. To protect the steel from moisture and rust, the blade is coated in a chrome finish, which also provides a smooth glide against the pet's skin to reduce friction and heat build-up.
This blade is part of the universal detachable system, meaning it is compatible with all Andis professional detachable clippers and most other A5-style brands. At 1.2mm, it provides a clean, polished look that is short enough to be hygienic but slightly more protective than ultra-short blades. It is a practical, durable tool for pet owners who need accurate results for maintenance and detail work.

Usage Tips
Practical Advice for the Andis UltraEdge Size 15 Blade
- This blade cuts close to the skin, touch it to your wrist frequently to ensure it hasn't become too warm.
- Apply 3 drops of clipper oil across the teeth and on the side rails to reduce friction and maintain motor efficiency.
- Always bathe and dry your pet before using this blade; dirt trapped in the fur will dull the fine teeth of the Size 15 very quickly.
- Do not press the clippers into the skin. Let the sharp carbon steel do the work while you guide it gently over the area.
- Use a small brush to clear hair from between the teeth after every use to ensure the blade remains ready for the next session.
