Your clipper kit will usually come with a number of attachment combs. Placing these on the blade will enable you to cut to different lengths. For example, if your clipper comes with #1-4 attachment combs, you will be able to cut from 3mm to 13mm. Without the combs, the blade gives a much shorter cutting length (our standard blade will cut to 0.8mm). If your kit doesn’t come with a comb length that you are looking for, they can be purchased separately here. If you’re not sure which combs will fit your clipper, find the right combs through the Spares & Accessories tab on the product page.
