ZXT 2,401 #2 Posted June 24, 2019 Not sure what the "best" brand might be, but I've used Stens blades on a number of mowers with good results. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WVHillbilly520H 10,373 #3 Posted June 24, 2019 I have owned my 520H with 48" deck since new the TORO blades will last much longer but I have used other blades from eBay without issue and a good quality cut. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lee1977 6,647 #4 Posted June 24, 2019 The toughest blade I have had were bought from Ebay - Pro Parts Place the brand XTH ( extreme toughness & hardness.) I used a new set on my Wheel Horse all last year and only had to very lightly touched up the edge this year. I have one on a old Snapper rear engine rider that I cut rough areas, brush, briers that has been on the last five or six years. I started to sharpen is a couple of years ago and it didn't really need it. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
