We have a pair of Sunbeam Clipmasters that
we've had since I used to show Polled Herefords at the local county fair and our
daughters showed 4-H steers. That's been about 40 years ago.
I have 4 clippers: a 28
yr old pair of Sunbeam clipmaster variable speed, a thirty year old pair of
Andis ( the all metal kind like the old barbers use), a 33 year old pair
of Stewarts, non- variable speed and a 15 yr old pair of A-5s. Yep, I keep the
blades sharp, the motors oiled and just use'em year after year. Now there may
be fancier clippers on the market, but these old guys are keeping on.
