Wahl Professional Premium Black Cutting Guides #3171-500 - 1/8 to 1 - Fits All Full Size Wahl Clippers (Excludes Detachable Blade Clippers) 8 Pack

I was hesitant to pay $30 for these, but after getting them, I dont regret it one bit. These clipper guides are first rate. And to those wondering like I was: yes, they most certainly fit the Surker model K9S (silver) clipper! See attached pics.

These are great. A step way up from the colored plastic ones. I dont like that you have to buy the 1/2 and 1 1/2 guides separately but what are you going to do. These fit tight and are very sturdy. I use them every day on my clients. I wish Wahl would put together a professional package that had the 1/2, 1 1/2, 1, and 2 blade and that is it. I have never used the 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, or 8. Overall, the best guides I have ever used.

Great gaurs

Everything came right

If you have the guards that come with your Wahl clippers, donate them to your local beauty school. These are game changers! Fit like a glove. Smooth glide. Sturdy. The stand they come in convinced me immediately. Searching through a bag of guards just looks messy to clients and is frustrating. I do recommend getting the extra 1 1/2 & 1/2 guards. They’re sold separately. Absolutely worth it!!

The real thing! There’s A lot of “knock-offs” out there and they’re flimsy. Wahl premium guides are sturdy and fits and cuts really well.

Most stores are cleared out of guides so luckily I found these. Theyre made of higher quality polymer and the metal attachment point seems to fix my main issue of the guide cracking at that specific stress point. Get them and you wont regret it!

These are the same as the all plastic ones that came with my Wahl clippers. There are two things about these that set them apart from the originals and make them a great improvement. First, they are reinforced with metal at the attachment points. I had two of the original guides become useless when the little plastic tabs that held them on the clipper head got broken. This was the main reason I bought this current set, and although I dont have years of use yet, I dont think the metal attaching clips will be prone to breakage. The other improvement is that the number of the guide is etched into the metal and much easier to see than the one on the all plastic models. Since my wife cuts my hair, we use these a lot. Its a great improvement and well worth the money.

Of course I had to order half gaurd and one and a half guard separately. Dont be fooled but good set.

This product is better than the guards that come with the clippers
