I've been using Ballard Blades on my Toro Z Master and my Wright Stander and they have performed excellent in our Brisbane, Australia conditions. Hot and wet here right through summer and the high rise throw the clippings really well and bag nicely too. Scraping the deck and a regular touch up of blade sharpness is a must.

Love your guys's blades for my grasshopper. Been running them for 2 years now and they have outlasted any of the other blades that I've tried.

Dealing with Ballard has been smooth. I had one order that had a set of blades missing in the order a quick email and Ballard quickly shipped the missing set out quickly with no questions. Definitely will continue to do business with Ballard. Highly recommend 👌

Tried all 3 types of Ballard's blades, the High rise, ripper and the reg through out the past yrs. love them, awesome quality , great priced and just purchased the new gold high lift mulch blades for my new Scag 61 with the 40hp Vanguard. Cant wait to see how they perform. Thanks Kory and your team for introducing new products that works and getting out to us quick. Definitely recommend

I cannot stress how much of a difference keeping the deck clean makes! You can have the best blade in the world and if the underside is dirty, it will cut poorly. I’ve been running Ballard blades on a Hustler Super Z and Scag walk behind for the last two years and have been extremely happy with them. They are great products and I highly recommend them!

I've purchased the scraper and a SuperJack2 from you and they've been excellent products. Your videos are excellent as well. I value your experience and advice. The sharp blade advice is right on the mark. I've gotten a lot of life out of some generic (ebay) serrated blades. I'm a real mulching fan, so I use the segment baffle blocks on a 48" BadBoy Elite. I mow two quarter acre lawns twice a week. The clippings go right into the turf. The lawns are very healthy with hardly any fertilizer applied. Up here in the PNW, Bermuda Grass is considered a evil weed and keeping a healthy lawn seems to help choke out the Bermuda. I try not to be a "my mower is best" snob but the BadBoy is something I can come home from work get the mowing done without being a mechanic for two hours each time. My neighbors buy the Big Box Store Husqvarna and really suffer. The consumer/residential grade John Deeres are almost as bad (I had serveral older lawn tractor style John Deeres), those were the Bad Days. Thank You.

I ran a set of ripper blades on my encore years ago for spring and fall mulching. Worked excellent. Very durable too. During the summer i added a second ripper to make an X blade and that eliminated stragglers on lush taller summer grass while still mulching great. Just was mindful to engage the blades more gently with all the extra weight.

@devonrollins5645 Жыл бұрын
One thing we noticed is your blade edge on the regular lift, high lift and mulching blade seemed to be significantly smaller than the oregons we were using on our John Deere stand on 52rs. Also same thing on the bobcat 61”. This was based of buying your blades last year. We stopped buying them for that reason. I’m not sure if they have changed or not but just some feedback for you.

I once read a 1 star review on a product were the customer absolutely loved the product but gave it 1 star because the shipping was 1 day late due to FedEx lol

My problem is that the blades I have tried all wear out too quickly. I am lucky if I get 10 hours out of my blades. I have a 54 inch Husqvarna. I am not talking about the blades getting dull in 10 hours but the blades totally being destroyed in 10 hours. They are totally worn down to nothing. The lift is totally worn off the blades and they are flat and thin. It seems like they are too soft and wear out too soon. I will say I do cut tall grass. By tall it could be18 inches but mostly in the 10 to 12 inch area.
@bryanmcleod93465 ай бұрын
On my Husky 5424, I learned that blade speed (throttle position), and cutting height needed to be accounted for, when the grass/weeds are patchy, and the lift pulls alot of sand/dirt. When I'm over thin areas, I slow the engine speed enough, and raise the deck slightly if needed, w/o bogging the motor. This increases blade life tremendously. Just my experience, with 8TEN and gator blades from amazon.
