Default What blades do ya run?

Getting ready to start on one of the cubs to have a mower for this year, I have a 44C deck and an original deck on the 109. The 44C needs bearings and blades are gone. I think the C deck is supposed to cut better and that is what the one I use is going to be. Since I have to get blades, and not going to worry about original, what is the best blade to get for the best cut?

Thanks for moving, not sure where stuff goes on this site yet. I was thinking gators, I know dads 108 would windrow in tall grass. It was new at the time so I know those decks might not be as good as a 44C. I am hoping with the right blades I will get as good a cut as the newer walk behinds/ zero turns do.

I've always used OEM blades on my Cubs Cadets and on my commercial John Deere Z-Trac and Toro. These are getting very pricey so last fall I purchased Oregon Gator and regular blades for all 4 of my mowers. This coming summer I'll find out if they can preform and last like OEM blades.

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
