What a great post - until I read it I was unaware of the existence of A6 blades, so now for my numpty question.
My boy is one of the native-type hairies. I gave him his annual October trace clip last week and my Liveryman Arena clippers with A2 blades did an excellent and easy job - blades barely even got warm.
However every March I clip him all over as otherwise he hangs on to his winter coat until the last week in June and each time the clippers really struggle badly, especially over his back, even though blades don't need sharpening.
Would a set of A6 blades be the answer for this March clip?
What would be the effect on the appearance of the clip? More lines? Longer hair?
Would I need to go over him again in the same clipping session? (he doesn't do stuff like showing, so it just needs to be neat and functional)
Hopefully this info will help someone else. Many thanks in advance TE.
