Bill D 2,246 #5 Posted April 7, 2024 I believe the blade is 13 7/8", but I. Could be wrong. Found a set of XHT blades on Amazon for $45. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JimSraj 511 #6 Posted April 8, 2024 (edited) I just measured an XHT blade that came with a deck I have that I’m getting ready for the season. It measures 13-13/16” diagonally tip to tip. They are pretty new looking blades. Still have most of the factory paint on them. Edited April 8, 2024 by JimSraj Added text. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JimSraj 511 #7 Posted April 9, 2024 Today I noticed that t%he XHT blades don’t have as much curve to the trailing part of them as the 106636 blades do. My thinking is that they won’t provide as much ‘lift’ to the cut grass. Can’t say if that will be good, bad or not important. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
