The blades for my lawn tractor have been discontinued and these were recommended as an alternate. I am really not pleased. There's no lift to these blades. They're flat. If you're cutting long grass you will need to do it twice. In the 20+ years I've been using lawn tractors these are by far the worst blades I've ever had. They're thick but not curved to cause an upward vortex to pull the grass up.This has been money wasted as I need to find another set.I DO NOT RECOMMEND!

I had to sharpen the blades before I installed them, could run my finger over cutting edge and not worry about cutting myself

Arrived quickly even during this pandemic, old ones came off these went on no issues. Seems to leave a nice smooth cut.

Good replacement blades at a decent price. Fast delivery. Would buy them again.

They are made of much better steel than blades that I purchased previously. These cost a bit more, but will last a lot longer.
