have TWO hours on them, cutting (mostly) grass.
I am also posting the "monster" stick pic, keep in mind, I'm 5'6" and
have small hands (insert joke here), the pic is of me holding the
stick.
Oh and the other pic is my version of safety first,

So am I right or wrong about the blades?
I can take, tell me honestly.

Thanks again.


It's fairly obvious that the replacement blades are of better quality.
What opinions are you wanting?

Well the part number is the same, the opinion I was looking for was
whether or not Sears put sub-standard blades on the mower it shipped.

That's not really opinion. I think you proved that, but I still don't get
the point. They certainly can improve any part they want and leave it the
same part number or assign it a new one. Aren't you glad there is a much
better blade available now than what it came with? If the original was the
only blade available I could see you raising a stink about the poor
quality.

My issue with the blades the mower came with is that they bent and cut into
the mower deck within two hours of mowing, and causing the engine to come to
a dead stop from full throttle, maybe causing engine damage too.
