Do yo need to replace the rotatory blade? If so how often?

Tim, I'm sorry I don't know how often somebody would have to replace the rotary blade or even if that is possible as I just purchased my unit. It is so inexpensive that I wouldn't worry about that. My previous Panasonic trimmer lasted quite a few years before needing to be replaced. Hope this helped even though it didn't directly answer your question.

This replacement part WERGN30K1058 costs more than a new trimmer, so this is unfortunately designed to be a disposable unit. Also you cannot buy the replacement blades on the Panasonic website for some reason. If they would sell it at a reasonable price with little shipping cost, it would make sense.

The blade can be replaced by removing the outer protective housing. It is recommended that you replace the blade every 3 years. The part number for the WERGN30K1058.

Hey, so it's been two years that I have this product.. I think I can finally say that I need to replace the blades (or actually buy a new one, it's less hassle and almost same price)It's not that it's not cutting anymore, rather that it feels it's 'pulling' more on the hair than it used to when it was cutting perfectly.I am using the trimmer on average once a week, sometimes more sometimes less,hope I helped

I just use it for almost a year. Want to buy a blade to be rapidly replaced.

I just looked at my cutter, and I don't understand how the blade "jams", unless it has been bent; there is nothing for it to hit, or jam against, unless something has changed shape. How long have you had the Stik? You might contact Fiskars. They have been very generous when I've spoken to them. If you need a replacement blade, they should be able to help you, if the movable blade is bent. If the stationary blade is the problem, I'm not sure if it can be replaced; the movable blade is held by one bolt, so I assume it would be an easy replacement.

I confess I have cleaned mine only once in the last 3 years and only then when it got gummed up and the motor stopped. It isn't particularly hard to disassemble, clean, reassemble and recalibrate the burrs. Also, the burrs are replaceable if they become worn.There are a number of YouTube videos showing how it's done. Take a look at a few of them and see if you would be comfortable doing the work yourself.

To answer you questions we have never had to replaces the blades and we have used it many times and we have had it for a year and it still works great. I highly recommend this item. I hope I did answer your question and it helped you.

Send the knife to Kyocera and they will replace the knife for free. There is a lifetime guarantee. I did this, with no problems.

Also try a different blade. I only use blades in my unit and never had any problems.

i am not sure, though, I have never needed to replace it. Usually the blades need to be straightened and resharpened after a harvest.

I bought a blade and it cracked after a few months. I just put my food processor away in the garage. Another blade doesn't seem worth it, but hand chopping herbs is very time consuming.

if youre just cutting your own hair Id get a new blade every year. If youre a barber every three to four months months in my opinion. Just clean them thoroughly with cool care twice a week and oil them after every use and they last.

nope. the blade is integrated and you would have to break it. I had that same issue.

Same here. Looked into it and it seems they carry a limited lifetime warranty on their blades. Others indicated positive experiences with their customer service department, so I would say you're in good shape. I think the warranty is also listed in detail on the KA-BAR website.

Yes, loosen the two screws on the old blade and remove the blades, then replace them with these new blades. You should have no problem at all.

YES! I have returned the blade housing 3 times and it just broke again. I demanded a complete refund, so we will see if this happens. They tried to tell me I am the only one it has happened to.

not to worry, it will wear out, the positive stops, in about 3 years, no replacement. good home saw not good everyday job use saw!

Hi, I have been using mine for the last 4 months on a weekly basis. The blade shows some wear, but is still doing fine. I have not had to adjust it downward yet due to it getting smaller. I did buy a replacement blade to have on hand, but at this rate it may be awhile before I need it. Has been a very good tool to date. Hope this is helpful.

yes. the problem you are experiencing is what i experienced. the trouble shooting recommended getting new blade for the machine. I did that and that did not help at all. I think it is defected. I ended up throwing mine out because i was pass warranty and i could not deal with the loud noise and intense vibrations. If yours is still under warranty, then use it.
