A barber's trimmer blade got damaged because it fell off the station, and they are struggling to find a compatible third-party blade replacement for their TPOB Play trimmer.
The TPOB Play trimmer has proprietary blade attachment; the manufacturer only sells blade guards with their softer blade, not the blade alone, forcing users to buy full guard sets. There is no clear third-party compatibility information.
