This replacement blade is a genuine OEM sourced item, not an aftermarket imitation. It is specially designed for use with Simplicity and Snapper riding lawn mowers and tractors. Depending on your model it may utilize two or three of these blades to cut the grass. Lawn mower blades can be maintained with frequent cleaning and good sharpening, but they eventually wear out requiring replacement. This part is made from durable metal and it is sold individually. To replace it you will need a wrench to remove the bolt that secures the blade.

Identical to the original blades
Blades only last about 3 months because of the sandy soil here. I mean throw them out in 3 months! It’s just how it is here no matter what brand. What I am most happy about is you now carry all the parts for my simplicity broadmoor. The closest dealer is 50 miles away.

Return policy
The parts were very good the efficiency of the service was very good until you try to return a product according to your make it easy for you to return $5.50 flat rate you're up to 70 lb I wanted to return them because I ordered the wrong blades I wanted to order a more expensive blade when I try to return it with your return label the post office told me it would cost me $22 and something cents to return the blades so now I can't get the blades that I wanted because I'm not paying the price of the post office because your return policy contradicts it and as for this I feel your service is horrible and you may have just lost your customer
