Will the 3 3/4FC fis my Oster 76 Classic? I've been told Andis is superior to Oster blades and would like to try one.

As for the Andis being superior, I don't buy it. They're just a little cheaper. A few years ago, Andis started making their clippers so non-Andis blades would not work on them. They quickly reversed that decision and offered revised blade clips to customers who had bought these clippers. I'm pretty sure this blade will fit an Oster clipper, but I ain't guaranteeing it.

i am not sure if they fit,but i prefer andis t-84 anyway.they are wider so i get done quicker and the horses clip out very nice.

I've looked up that info before but don't remember.....it may be the Andis website that tells what other clippers their blades work with, I know it's somewhere online :)!

I am using Derby Extra. Have no problem with them. But, I would try some different blades, just because I like to try different items. But, I do like Derby.

I don't really know. What I do know is that the Oster blades I received were dull, dull, dull! Not worth the money.

I have never used Andis blades, but per this website - it says the #7 skip tooth WILL work with Oster & other brands. http://www.petedge.com/product/Andis-UltraEdge-Clipper-Blade-Size-7/43022.uts hope this helps!! :)

Soory I can't help here. Since I have had the Andis for only 6 months, I have not had a need to change the blades yet. However, all literature indicate that its a fair simply process(?). Note: I recently purchased the Oster T-Blade fast Finisher Trimmer and am truly impressed. It blow away the Andis. The Andis Cordless is great for travel overseas (Europe - Italy, Spain, UK, Frnace) due to its dual voltage. However, for US and if you don't mind an electrical cord it blows it away. Oster is powerful, heavy duty motor, trims to .02 (00000), gets the job done"fast", little heavier than the Andis and cheaper (on Amazon). Soory I can't help here.

It sounds like you have it snapped in but not engaged. Pull the blade back without removing it. Take a close look and see if the lever on your 76 is inside the socket of the blade. You will likely see that it is not. Remove the blade. Now put it back in making sure you are sliding the socket on the back side of blade over the lever. I have quickly snapped blades in and out and immediately see it not working. It is a simple whoops/ahah thing. It will snap in even if the lever is inside the socket so it is very easy to do. No biggie. If you find it installed correctly and your number 1 blade works, but another one doesn't then the blade is either broken or not an Oster 76 compatible blade. Oster blades are made of high quality, hardened steel. I have never seen one broken but anything is possible.

Andis makes clippers. I have never seen Andis shears. If you want a good shear for a Newfie, I would recommend Kenshi brand. My 'go to' shears are Kenshi Scorpions 8' curved. I love them & they are not on the highest end of Kenshi, so they are affordable. You will be happy with them.

I'd stay with Oster brand blades. The blades are numbered and cut to different lengths. Decide which length you want to cut to and get the corresponding blade.

Buy it from Tiberwolf in New York. They have a website so simpley google timber wolf and ou should find it. They have the best, prices the best variety and in my mind the very best blades.

All oster blades will work the same. Model 10's were the first clippers made my oster. But they stopped making them when the 76ers were released.. I think 76ers are crap. The model 10s are really light compared to the 76ers. It took me a min to get used to the lightness but well worth it. I think you will fall in love with the 10's

Reviews say that the 3 blade is better, which is why I ordered it. Amz says they will replace the 2 blade they sent me & swap it out w/the 3 blade. I don't know much else, I suspect the more expensive 3 blade will be more powerful, I should know more soon.

You can check your model and accessory part numbers at www.smallappliance.com. One thing I discovered just now is that, while I can get a variety of newer blades for my older model DLC-5, the stems on the blades now detach. So, I would be looking at the price of the stem AND the blade just to get a different blade. So, I compared getting a newer model to see if more blades come with new models. Nope. Still only comes with three blades. They're gonna getcha coming and going, I guess.

I agree with high speed good blade for clean cut. I like thin kerf marathon blade. It's a question with many variables...I'm a cabinet maker/finish carpenter. Maybe a little more torque for heavy beam cuts could be nice. But my Skil saw keeps me happy everywhere I go...

I bought this blade for the Oster Model "Classic." It did not say the blade is for the "classic" model, so I was a little concerned when I bought. But it did work for the "classic" model.

I would recomend the boker plus even though this is a great knife the boker is much thiner and would probably do what you want where as the SOG is not thin enough for that.

The Oster 2803 has two blades. I didn't experience any problem with meat building up between the blades. Of course it only worked two times before breaking so maybe I didn't get enough attempts :-)

The blades are very thin and light, much thinner and lighter than my traditional chef knife. I use mine on a maple butcher block and only have to hone them about once every 3 months. Not all high carbon steel is created equally. Would I choose these over a Wusthof Chef Knife at the same price? Probably but it is a personal preference based on look and feel. Both are quality knives and would preform well.
