You only need 3 drops along the cutting edge of the blade (Figure 1) and 1 drop on each side (Figure 2a and Figure 2b), and then let your clipper/trimmer run for about 10 seconds to spread out the oil. Okay, I am off my soapbox and going to answer your question now: 3 drops on the cutting edge and 1 drop on each side. You are decreasing the cutting ability of your blades, you are decreasing the life of your blades and your clipper/trimmer, and you are causing your client pain because your blades are getting HOT due to friction. We love being asked the question, “How should I oil my blades?” because it means that someone is thinking about oiling their blades! A lot of the blades that we see in the shop only get oil on them when we oil them, and then the blades do not get another drop until they come back to us for sharpening.
