What? Clipper guards are single-digit numbers like 0 or 2
I agree, but to be fair to OP, 5 and 9 are also single digit numbers.
with no other characters
i've seen more clipper guards with mm than with those single digit numbers, which is good because those numbers told me nothing, if i recall correctly they do not match the hair lenght they'd cut to but instead are just numbered from smallest to biggest in the set
but instead are just numbered from smallest to biggest in the set
And, critically, are different between manufacturers and probably between sets for different razors from the same manufacturer. If it was at least semi-standardized, like shoe size, we'd get used to it
Mine can be turned around and have "9mm" and "11mm" printed on them
Is that FMJ or JHP?
My Andis set has a number, as well as both metric and freedom units on each guard.
My Wahl has both, the sequential digits and size in mm.
