Panasonic’s X-Taper Blade 2.0, sharpened at 45 degrees with a diamond-like carbon coating, and stated to pick the hair up as close to the skin as the geometry allows.

What makes this page possible is that Panasonic publishes the compatibility list in full: fifteen references, by number, including the ER-DGP84 reviewed on this site. Compatibility on clipper blades is a mount, not a brand, and a list of numbers is the only honest way to state it.

One practical oddity: Amazon carries this blade under two different references — one for Germany and the United States, another for the UK, France, Italy and Spain. Same EAN, two catalog entries.

What people ask about this

Why is the reference different depending on the country?

Amazon lists this blade under its own catalog entry on amazon.com, separate from the European ones. It is the same part — the EAN is identical — but the entries are distinct, which is why the link on this page goes to the US listing rather than to a search.

Is a new blade worth a third of a new clipper?

That is the arithmetic to do, and it depends on the motor. On a machine like the ER-DGP84, whose selling point is a linear motor that does not wear the way a blade does, renewing the cutting element is the cheaper half of the decision. On the $90 Philips it would not be.
