The tool works well with any size dog with any size blade. It's a cool tool and it just works great!

Yes, for sure, I have a goldendoodle, 4 months old. Worked amazing with the #10 blade with the combs. I ended up buying the large comb size as well for the variety of cut lengths.

The overall size is 6". Round tip is nice and blades appear to be sharp and are very useful around my goldens feet.

They come in small and large. Sounds like you got a small one. I get the large size for my golden retriever and it's a mouthful for him. Actually, he was carrying that very one around last night.

I got the 36" which fits in the XL kennel and that should work for a golden in or out of a kennel, my dog is about the same size.

We have a yorkie and a Lhasapoo. Use a3 3/4 FC blade and the comb at whatever length you want. Hopes that helps.

It is 3/8 of an inch long. The standard one that comes with the clipper is too short for me. So I purchased this 3/8" blade to give my pomeranians summer cuts (lion cuts). I feel like the 3/8" blade is too long. I should of bought something slightly shorter. Like a 1/4" blade. Take a ruler and see where 3/8" is and you will see how long it is. I personally wanted it shorter because I don't want to cut my poms more than 2x's in the summer.

utility knifes blades are pretty much a standard size, so amazon or any hardware store. I am a big fan of the Lenox 20351-GOLD50D Gold Titanium-Edge. Pricey but they last longer than cheaper refills. So if you cut alot check out the lenox ones, if not then any replacement utility knife blade.

Blade 4FC cuts the hair on length of 9.5 mm (about 1 cm). That length is perfect for short body hair of my poodle and is recommended for the sporty style.

To be honest with you I gave this blade to my brother so I don't recall the size of the blade. Its a great gift for a Marine. My brothers reaction was priceless.. my son wants one too so I'm getting another one just for him. Its not gold finish but trust me its a great knife for the price. We love it! Hope this helps you ;)

Works fantastic. My poodle (goldendoodles) get matted quick if I don't keep them short. I use a 7FC blade works like a hot knife thru butter. I bought a cheap pair a few years ago and was very sorry I wasted my money.

i have a medium coated German Shephard and it works perfectly on her. the tines are not real long at all. I would say it should be great for your Golden.

I use the gold blades in mine. You just have to put a bit more torque into the screw that holds the blade then you would with a thicker blade.

Your choice depends on what you want to accomplish. My Andis blade came with a #4...and I bought the combs to have the option of leaving the dog's hair longer. The combs help keep the blade away from the dog's skin.

I have the medium, and my dog has fairly short hair. If your Golden mutt has the fur of a Golden Retriever then I think I would go with the large.

I have owned the golden for years and love them. I also have long haired shih-Tzu and they work very well weather trimming or cutting shorter for summer. The only thing I see different is speed rate. Turbo is faster, but depends if you feel you need that or just like the word "turbo". The golden has been their #1 for years.

Size 10 which is good for SHORT cuts such as stomach and around personal areas. A person with little experience should not really use a ten blade. IT is also good for shaving poodle's feet.
