It cut very smooth. The blade is about the same size compared to the Wahl detailer. You can use the guards from the Wahl detailer as well. It’s powerful and has long battery life. The only con for this trimmer is that it’s getting hot quick. But if you are not a beginning barber, you don’t have to worry about it because you will turn off the trimmer after using it, let say about 5 minutes.
I recently purchased the Caliber 38 special and after a few uses I can say overall it’s a pretty good trimmer. Lines are sharp and cuts with ease but you must oil them every use as you should with all clippers/trimmers but as some may function good without oil regularly these do not. Battery has been great so far but these are just for home use for me so cannot rate on daily usage. I do wish they were slightly heavier as the overall feel is cheap plastic so not sure what would happen if they fell on the ground. Power does not feel or sound like they pack a punch but they surprisingly cut well with minimal effort. Overall I would recommend but wish Caliber would take some pride in their product packaging as the outer and inner box feel like you just purchased 15 dollar trimmers at family dollar and there charging mount is pretty awful as it has no weight and the trimmer wobbles inside the charging dock but it does work. Overall good trimmers and with decent price point (at least at williamsport bowman for 67 bucks) and cordless feature a must buy and good bargain.
