The Andis UltraEdge Size 5 Skip Tooth is a detachable clipper blade for grooming work that calls for a skip-tooth cutting pattern and a nominal coat length of 1/4 inch (6.3 mm). It gives professional groomers a defined blade option for working through longer or coarser coats while leaving more hair than a close-clipping blade. This is the size 5 skip version; select a finish-cut blade separately when your technique requires that tooth pattern.

Andis uses a proprietary hardening process to strengthen the steel and support edge retention. The blade also has a chrome finish that helps inhibit corrosion. Its removable design provides access for cleaning and lets a compatible clipper accept a different blade when the grooming task changes.

Clear accumulated hair with a soft brush and lubricate the cutting assembly according to the clipper instructions.
