I bought the two bladed version of Oregon mulcher blade a few months back, and only got the chance to try it out a few days ago, using a Stihl FS91 four stroke trimmer. Wow! What a great tool for the thick brush! Before using it, I used the stock three bladed Stihl blade, and while it cut brush and smallest saplings fairly well, it left debris that then got in the way of advancing the blade into another swath. I also use a Renegade circular saw type blade for trees and heavier brush, and it, too, has its place. But the Oregon blade is my go to in the thick vine type brush, with occasional sapling. It has the rotating mass to swing through the thick.
Looking to invest in a strimmer to clear areas that a tractor cannot go. I found this very informative. Thank you.
Thanks, Calvin, for the vid. Just bought a 52cc 5 in 1 which looks to be identical in all major respects to the far more expensive brands - all m/c made in China, anyway. However, also got an Oregon 2-tooth blade for brambles and was grateful to see how it performed. Can't wait to get among the brambles. Every good wish to you and yours across the Marches. Paul in the Midlands
Ordered the three tooth blade, great buy... Thank You
Definitely need the 3 Bladed piece, completes the job into good mulch! Glad I saw your review, Thanks Mate!
Hi Paul Wong. I'm glad this review helped you. Cheers, Calvin
My favorite is the Brushdestructor blade! Nothing compares!
Nice video. It would have been interesting to use the 2-blade on the more powerful machine to see what's the effect of the blade vs the engine.
Great video and useful info. Cheers Calvin
Cheers Calvin, really helpful.
Been using both blades interchangeably on 525 (25 cc) Husqy and similar displacement Tanaka brushcutters, doing very nicely long as you keep the rpm moderately high. On first uses both were noticeably "buzzy" in rpm ranges. Quick precision static balancing, and they're "smooth as silk." So, 1.3 hp works just fine. Most productive motion seems NOT to be the up & down, but smooth side-to-side, stepping down a couple of feet at a time. Quick sharpening has good effect, but removing paint makes no sense IMHO. Upcoming experiment will be to run both blades on 45 year old, 21 cc, 1 hp Echo brushcutter. Place your bets.
I bought 3 blade and 40cc Husquvarna. It’s awesome 😎
I've got the 3 blade on a cheap Parker brand strimmer, and I've just cleared a few hundred yards of brambles, bushes and small trees, it's a beast of a thing, it does tend to take down small trees a bit too easily though so when you accidently touch one it's a goner. The up and down motion is great for brush and brambles, side to side is great for clearing up whatever is left. Highly recommended
In agreement with the above post.Used three cutter gamble blade on Titan machine.
The two blade is phenomenal on my Husky 535LK, the three blade is more suitable for bigger brushcutters!
Very good, thanks Calvin.
Many thanks. Glad you enjoyed it. Cheers, Calvin
Good video nice info that you for this.
Great review Calvin. I have the 3mm two tooth oregon blade for 25cc and the 4mm for a Stihl 410. Now after watching this i will have to buy the 3 tooth blade. Nice one mate☆☆☆☆
Hi. Many thanks Brian. Yeah the 3 tooth blade is a bit of a monster you won't be disappointed. Cheers Calvin
I found the two blade oregon very disappointing, I was left dissatisfied by it.
I have the straight Oregon blade and love it. One thing I didn't hear mentioned is once you knock the stuff down if you go over it again it will mulch it up and not have to do any raking.
After I cut down a tree I go at the small branches with it and mulch them up and then use my chain saw on the bigger stuff. Your hard had with ear muffs and screened face shield are a must. These blade launch debris back at you with tremendous force, do no skip this step. I used my oregon blade all summer and is my go to tool. Larger stuff bigger than your thumb I use a trimmer with a saw blade.
Hi padroooo. Thanks for the comments. Yes you are right if you go over it again it will smash it up I should of mentioned that in the video. Cheers Calvin
I have the same experience as you , l used the two tooth 4mm Oregon with a 52cc machine , I reckon I could cut through the Amazon with it.
@@brendanryan1852 a Brush Destructor blade will do it all. Easily cut down a 6 in. tree, mulch brambles, and cuts grass better than trimmer line.
@@CalvinThomas05 that husqvarna is too weak for that mulcher
Luv my oregon 2 blade! Had it 3 years. Saw it in a another vid someone from the UK posted. Found it wasn't available 4sale in the usa. But a bit o time searching and found a UK seller that would ship to me. Deliv less than 2 weeks incl customs. I had to pull my debri shield as vines or sapplings took a toll on it. & I also sometimes get a wicked vibration. Watch out near chain link or wire fencing
I have cleared a lot of thick brush, brambles, fir bushes here in Midwest Ireland with it. Got around 3 years from my first blade had to remove the guard also. I'm using it with a 52cc machine. It pulverises the thickest of brambles. Very happy with the amount of brush it can eat up in a short time
Just bought both blades for my 35cc Husky, can't wait to use them!
Great review! Thank you🙏❤!
Hi, Many thanks. Cheers , Calvin
the 3 blades a beast.. just put one on me list for me new stihls fs410c shud make like easier stay safe Calvin
Hi STANCOMBE TREE CARE & ALL YOUR GARDENING NEEDS uk. Yeah the 3 blade is a bit of a monster you won't be disappointed. Cheers Calvin
hello sir ! from your experience, what type of tool is the best to mulching thick, high and dense brambles, the two or the three blade model ? thanks a lot
Mulching is soo satisfaing
I see you got the Husqvarna 2 strokes. I just got the Stihl Kombi 94R. The dealer ordered the Echo PAS 2620 for me to compare with the Stihl 94R. It came down to the Echo attachments were all heavier especially noticeable on the hedge trimmer and the saw. The Echo poles were also wobbly and did not connect as well as Stihl. The 94 has more power than I expected and it is 2 stroke. Echo here is the same as Shindawa. I'll get one of those blades as my first bush blade.
Hi Tom. Yes I have a Stihl km94rc as well I think its a good machine but I find the older stihl hedge cutter attachment quite heavy I haven't used the newer white version yet to compare weight. But I'm going to change to the Husqvarna lk combi's and give them ago in the future. I know the hedge trimmer heads are quite light. Yeah the 3 tooth blade is very good. Cheers Calvin
@@CalvinThomas05 Here the easiest Husqvarna attachments to get are Trimmer Plus brand at Lowe's big box. They are a third the price also. Don't know about weight or durability. www.lowes.com/search?searchTerm=husqvarna+string+trimmer+attachments
Have you tried the 2 blade appliance on the more powerful machine though? What happens then?
I have a stihl 560. Need to cutting a track through heavy grass and blackberry. Any good for that. The pro nylon line isn't doing the job.
I see they come in 3mm also.. do you think the 4mm is needed for longevity? They seem to be the same price on Amazon.
Hi Calvin, thanks for the video. that 35cc seems to be rxt model, not ment to brushcutting but for a long reach grass trimming? Also its max torque is set very high, close to 7000 I think, so I think it should be revved more higher.. Greets man, keep it up
Hi T. Marinelic . Thanks for the comments. Yes your right it is a bit small for brush cutting. I want to get a 45cc machine in the future. I don't like revving to high to look after the engine and in case the blade fly's off lol. Cheers Calvin
What would you recommend for dense brambles?
Hi, i have brush cutter that has 1kw of power. Should i buy the version with the 2 knives or with the 3 knives, and should i buy the 3 or the 4 mm version ?
I’ve just reclaimed several hundred yards of paths in our thick woods. The forest floor is thick with leaves, though. I’m wondering if one of these mulching blades would do the trick to break up the oak leaves. I don’t think I’ll mind the mulch leaf debris left behind.
Using Kombi KM90. Thanks!
Thanks!
You might be hard pressed to eradicate leaves in a woodland
I’ll need a few Rockstars and a few lines to get a big job done with this blade😆🙏
Goats?
Can I use the husqvarna 128ld with this blade?

Just replaced a 48cc kawasaki with the Stihl FS 560 the extra power means I nearly halved the time it takes to do the job . I would have used 3.3mm square line to cut the green stuff which would have made the job faster and then used the mulching blades to tackle the woody growth .
The stihl is heavier than my previous Kawasaki by at least 2 or more kg's but takes half the time but with the Stihl harness I so far have not noticed the extra weight .
Hi Lynn. Yes you're right the 3.3mm square line would cut the green stuff faster. Nice machine the Stihl FS 560. Cheers Calvin
I use the 48cc kawasaki ages allready but....all bruschcutters are age restricted ! I mean, the older one becomes, the heavier the bruschcutter is ! Therefore as one becomes older, the cc's drop from lower to lower !
What model strimmers are they??
What weeder do u use
Do what every one else is doing and get saw blade kit and you can put any circular saw blade or specialy designed blade on the strimmer
( boy o )
I purchased the oregon 2-blade thinking it was universal. It did not come with any nuts or adaptors. Anyone know where to find these items for this blade?
Cane Slayer Brush Cutter is the Best Option!
Can these blades be used on a battery powered ?
Nice comparison, I was using a version of the two blade one today and got a lot of vibration, so much that I had to stop after an hour as my hands were tingling. Thats not good for the circulation so I have ordered a three tooth one to see if it will be smoother.
I use a Tanaka 40cc so it should have enough grunt to swing it OK.
Thinking of doing the same thing, did three tooth have significantly less vibration. What were the thicknesses of your blades? Thanks
@@kyebean I got the heavy duty version, 4mm I think was the thickness, tbh its more than enough, I was mulching blackberry easily with this just taking slow bites out of the bush. I have sustained a fair bit of damage on the blade by hitting hidden rocks though, but it doesn't seem to have made any difference.
If vibration is your problem, Then the balance is the problem. Its either not on correctly or you have sharpened one side to much ?
I have the 2 blade on my sthl fs85r. And I smash through all this alot quicker with no vibration than he does with his 3 blade on a different strimmer? 🤷♂️ I will purchase the 3 blade and see if its any better:)
Can you please post the exact model numbers/names for both of the blades?
Thanks.
Great review.
Hi J.B Thanks for the comments. 3 tooth Oregon 295508-0 2 tooth Oregon 295504-0 Cheers Calvin
Calvin Thomas thanks again. I wanted to get both but it looks like those are not available in the US market. I called Oregon and they told me that due to some regulations they don’t sell them in the US.
I will have to stick to whatever comes with my Honda trimmer.
Shredding branches thicker than 2 cm with a shredder blade will damage the brush cutter little by little. It doesn't mean it will break anytime soon. I broke the brush cutter engine. It is caused by metal fatigue.
Все время хотел купить трехлопастной нож мульчер. А теперь сам изготовляю мульчеры
You should only ever use these blades on cow horn bike handled brush cutters. All that momentum and weight of the blade goes right up the strimmer/brush cutter shaft when it stops dead and the ring handle will give your wrist a lot of grief absorbing that kinetic energy.
I'm watching this with subtitles on, 'cos I don't want to wake the missus.... The auto-generated subtitle system is hysterical! It's really struggling, coming up the the craziest shit. I was wondering what accent could confuse it so much, so turned up the volume a touch to hear what it was. Welsh. Exactly like mine! LOL.
Have you used one on gorse , could it be to dense & hard . Excellent video.
Hi skodapickup. Thanks for the comments. No I haven't tried it on gorse it could be a bit thick like you say. if I see any I will try it to see how it copes with it. Cheers, Calvin
I have used the two pronged blade on Gorse. it works a treat on diameters up to 2". that was on a Stihl fs400
@@bx338 Thanks for that , I will get on and do some this winter . It will save bending my back .
What would make my 525 Strimmer like in your video leak fuel when tilt 45 deg when edging or use upside down would fuel pipe come loose or tank cranked
Gas tank vent can do that
Would his attach to a Makita grass trimmer? 18 volt battery operated
Please don’t do that. Very under powered for these blades and would be very dangerous and subject to kick back. 🙏🏼🙏🏼
So close but.... I want to "dig out" weeds growing amongst my privet hedges. There is enough room for a strimmer but the problem is the hedge stems will be damaged. What I need is a 360* guard that will keep the strimmer away from the hedge stems AND a blade that will dig up the soil too. The downward blades of these mulchers look like they might do the job. Even something like those dethatching springs that go on lawn mower blades might do the job.
The problem is getting right up to the stems w/o damaging them AND "plowing" up the soil between them.
So the limitation with these blades is the 360* guard which I've never seen.
There is a "red plastic disc" blade system being sold that looks like it would have done the job, _but the disc turns with the blade!_ So the disc will damage the stems!
Basic concept is a rototiller blade on its side with a close, stationary 360* guard.
Stihl and others do a combi attachment that's a pretty narrow rotavator that could be exactly what you're looking for.
Roadblocks in being able to order this two tooth Oregon blade for orders to be shipped within The United States. Any advice?
Try northern tools, I know they have stihl brand blades.
I ordered mine off of Amazon. It had to come from England and it took 2 weeks but it’s worth every penny and the time it took to ship it. Using on stihl fs 95. Works great.

I have both blades. The 3 blade is far superior for mulching briars and brush.
Brushcutter blade vs long reach hedge cutter on bramble thicket?
Hi Rory. In my opinion a long Reach hedge trimmer/normal hedge trimmer just cuts the brambles so you're still left with a big pile of bramble on the ground but a brush cutter blade or a flail mower type smashes it all up into little pieces with no clean up work needed. Cheers Calvin
@@CalvinThomas05 I just ordered one, good point about it mulching the bramble up.
🔥👍👏💪
Hi Roma Fighter against grass. Many thanks. Cheers Calvin
Neither. The Brush Destructor blade out of Australia is far superior to any commercial brush cutter blade on the market.
True Welsh man there 😆
these are good blades but they don't fit well on Stihl machines. one severe bump and the aluminium adapter ring will get mashed up.
got the 525, where do you get the splined washer and support cup?
Hi LilNitroGreg. Have you got a husqvarna dealer near to you. That would be you're best bet. They would sort you out straight away. Or look on Ebay but I've looked before and finding the right one isn't easy. Or any outdoor power repair shop might be able to help you out. Cheers Calvin
@@CalvinThomas05 cheers i thought that might be the case! having had no look online several times before. nearest dealer is 30 plus mins away but that was my plan b so no problem. cheers for responding
hi
For me is better with 2 blade
I have the 3 blade on a stihl fs251r and it will tear some sh!t up
What language is this?
hello, your comparison is good. however you have mounted the blades backwards! the curvatures of the end of the blades go upwards ... in order to limit projections at high speed. and especially to avoid a sudden stop (because your transmission will not appear at all). On the other hand, you should know that in some countries these blades are prohibited (very dangerous) as are the spools fitted with chainsaw chains or bicycle type cables. on the other hand, there are now armored cables made of twisted nylon steel.
More cutting blades =more cutting power!..Less talk and more work now, get a move on here!🧐!
try macinone
Looks like everyone is still asleep
What accent is this? Is it South African?
No. Welsh and proud. Lol, Cheers
You are using the wrong blades... Those blades are for grass and watery vegetation. They are definitely not meant to cut woody vegetation. Be careful.
Hi Tango. Thanks for the comments. But i dont usually use it on thick stuff I was just showing on the video what it is capable of doing. Cheers, Calvin
@@CalvinThomas05 That's good to know. I have had the most trouble with that blade using it on wild rose bushes. It works great for part of it and then it will hit one in the middle that is too thick and kickback very strongly. Thanks for replying. Cheers.
Anything out of australia is superior. a mulcher blade out of australia could be a resident evil weapon.
