Description

With Predator2 blades it starts with the steel, featuring a unique steel that incorporates boron, carbon, manganese, and other materials that ensure its strength. The final step in the process is the patented and independently tested Marbain® heat-treating process. This process makes Predator2 blades approximately 25% - 40% harder than standard lawnmower blades,making them the longest-lasting, safest and most impact resistant lawnmower blades on the market.

Predator 2 provides the flat blade design preferred by most commercial mowers with an extended cutting length for increased cutting efficiency.

Benefits of the Predator2 blade:
  • Flat blade design preferred by most commercial mowers.
  • Extended cutting length for increased cutting efficiency
  • Superior mulching capabilities over traditional mulching blades
  • The airflow tooth design increases blade strength while producing more airflow for smaller clippings
  • Cutting edges stay sharper longer
  • Wear resistance in the most strenuous conditions
  • Impact toughnes
  • Resistance to bending
  • Tightest tolerances in the aftermarket vs. OEM
  • Can be used in place of GX21784 & GX21786 John Deere mower blade

Mr.
These are good, heavy blades. Get several seasons out of them. Sharpen & hold edge well. Mow about 3 acres, along gravel drive & road.

Mr.
Very nice smooth cut. My original Deere blades were shot. These really did the trick.

Great mulching mower blade. I put it on my John Deere 48" mower and tried it out. It pulverized the grass and leaves, better than expected.

These blades do the job much better than the stock ones. Good for heavy grass when weather prevents you from mowing as often as you should. I prefer mine a little sharper than from the factory, but that is easily accomplished on a bench grinder and a hand file. I have several sets in rotation so I always have a sharp set ready to go on. With the sand in my area and those nasty ant hills everywhere, my wear is heavier than a perfect lawn. The mulching feature works as advertised.

I wanted a blade that would be easy to sharpen. The mulching blades on my JD LA165 were worn but not completely shot, but I had to make multiple passes to cut some grass even though I was traveling at half speed. After installing the Predator2, the mower cut very cleanly even traveling at full speed. The only negative was that the Predator2 does not mulch near as well as the standard blade. I still had long clippings. I was able to reduce them with multiple passes. If you are looking for a quick cutting blade with some mulching capability, this is the blade. If you want great mulching, you may be disappointed. I personally am satisfied with the mulching trade-off. My goal is to get out of the central Texas heat as quickly as possible.

great blades
I have not used these yet, as we are in winter. but after unboxing them these blades are much thicker and better made than the factory blades I have been using. I think these will last more than the one season I have been getting out of the factorys.

These are by far the best blades I've ever bought. This is my second set. The first set lasted over 3 years with occasional sharpening. They are much better than standard blades.
