  • Part still available, AMAZING!!!!
    Everything was so easy and the part fit. Really amazing as the chipper is 33 yrs old and the part was updated but still available.
    Guest - April 29, 2023 Verified Purchase
    This blade was the exact replacement.
    The blade was exactly the same as the original only not broken! The fit was perfect and retained important balance.

    THE right parts
    the right parts at a great price when a lot of other part places were charging much more for the small blades
