Beginner barber needs a trimmer blade that removes bulk without leaving a hard guideline for men's fades, as current blade is too sharp.

Existing trimmer blades are either too sharp (Crazy blade) or ineffective at debulking (Andis Slimline), with no adjustable option that balances between soft and sharp for fading.
