you can get a set from boots for just shy of a tenner, but don't do it. I once confused a number three with a 3mm blade. Thought I was going to have to join NF to fit in

Wherever you get them, try to look at hairdresser supply stores or online beauty supply shops as the ones you can buy in Boots / Argos are never strong enough and are feeble compared to more professional ones and not always that much cheaper.

Another for Wahl, had mine for 17 years and still going strong. Bought cheap ones as spare and they are very poor conpared to the Wahl clippers.

Pay a bit more and get the best.
