I have a 2016 GM 1000 11 blade and need to replace the reel and bedknife. I cut at 3/8 in the front and 1/2 in the back. Thoughts on which bedknife and reel I should get from R&R. Leaning towards the high cut bedknife and the 11 blade razor series.

I totally agree after having 11-blade and 8-blade on my Toro triplex machines!! 8 blade is more versatile from cutting 1/4" up to 1"...Bombers said:
Go look at Connerwards youtube video on 8-blade vs 11-blade comparison. Go 8-Blade and fairway bedknife...
I've never used the new "razor" series reels always the basic 8 blade. supposedly they have high tech steel alloys. Your mileage may vary.
There's 2 fairway options. The other can go down to 3/16 and has 13 bolt holes. Make sure u get the right one. I have one and scalped at .25 and could've gone lower if I wanted to.UrAvgLawn said:
Honestly not sure on depth size of each bedknive but can tell you its easy to bend a slim greens bedknive vs a fairway/highcut bedknive... so take your pick. It easy for a homeowner to hit something such as concrete or other obstacle to bend a greens bedknive vs an up turned fairway/highcut bedknive...UrAvgLawn said:
