- I finally got around to buying a rear blade for my tractor and chose the Everything Attachments Deluxe Rear Scrape Blade. In this video I cover the specs, features, pros & cons and test it out as well as compare it to similar rear blades. Once again, Everything Attachments delivers great value and ruggedness just like with my EA Landscape rake.

Thanks, i’ve been looking around and reading about different blades. You just made my mind up.
Glad I could help! Thanks for stopping by!
Nicely done review Martin! Glad you are happy with the back blade. Have a good week! See ya!
Thanks, John! Hope you have a great week too!
Martin, I have just discovered your videos and began to watch them. The amount of detail and professional sounding narrative you put into them is very impressive. Your research into the products you demonstrate are very unbiased and in depth. Great job.
Thank you very much, David! I appreciate your kind words and I am glad to know my videos are helpful to you. Please spread the word to anyone else you think might find them helpful. Thanks for watching!
Another awesome product review. Excellent quality video and edited professionally. Thank you sir
Thank you for your kind words, Rob! I’m glad you liked it! Happy 4th of July!
Really great review...love the stats comparison. I purchased an EA Wicked Extreme 66" box blade for my LX2610 and I love it!
Thank you very much! Yes, EA makes excellent equipment. Thanks for watching!
I watch the EA channel quiet often and their products seem to be top of the line. Nice review
Hi Matthew! They are top of the line in my book anyway. Thanks for watching!
Thank you! Just what I'm looking for. More features than I'd expect. Used stuff in $800.00 range without as many features... and HARDly used :/
Hi Martin! Excellent review on your new grader blade. Glad to see I hit the bull's eye with my guess/comment on video #124!! Enjoy your new attachment; it looks like you are getting quite the arsenal of attachments there!! Stay well, Michael
Thanks, Michael! Yes, you nailed it. I get the attachments I need - and I'm pretty good at convincing myself that I need just one more. 😉
Good morning Martin! Great detailed review - looks like a well built, smart design. It will come in pretty handy for you!
Good morning Gord! Thank you, sir! Yes, EA makes really well designed and rugged implements. I’ve been very happy with them. Thanks for watching!
Wow, great review, thank you for sharing!
Thank you, John!
Saving my Penny's right now to order one of these I've been very happy with my other EA attachments definitely a extremely universal tool
Martin...Great video as always.
Happy 4th.
Thanks, Kenny! Happy 4th to you too!
Martin, that blade is the best on that I've seen. It seems to offer everything you could ever want and at a reasonable price. Thank you for sharing.
Hi Bob! Yes, my thoughts exactly. Glad you found the video informative. Thanks for watching!
Looks like a terrific purchase. EA builds some great implements and I thoroughly enjoy Travis' "Folksey" way he presents and demonstrates his products. He's a lot tougher on them in his videos than I would ever be. He's a dynamite salesman and for a good reason....he builds great stuff! Btw....I have my eye on his 55" root grapple.
Hi Dwayne! Yes, I’m always impressed with their videos where the torture their implements way beyond what most folks will do. And I’m considering their 55” grapple too. Thanks for watching!
Well done sir, you make me jealous of your new toys 😂. Thank you for another great and helpful video.
Glenn
Thank you, Glenn! I like this new toy a lot!
Have an EA box blade. They are hands down the gold standard for most implements these days and I'll only buy from them
Great video!! Congratulations on gettin your angle blade that is very nice love the offset and angle to make or clean ditch lines. You did good job for first time. I've had old one for several year's but never used it much till last year put it on to blade snow I loved it worked great but would like to have angle where I could do ditches. Thanks for sharing be safe have fun enjoy
Thanks, Mike! Yes, the offset feature was a must for me. Makes making and maintaining ditches easy.
I’ve been thinking I need one of these, great video. Thx
Hi Jimmy! If you think you need one, then you do need one. Thank you kind sir!
Great review Martin. I love my EA attachments, which are built like tanks. The company (and Travis) go out of their way to accommodate. Customer service is top notch in my opinion. Tip, spinning the blade around and scraping backwards helps tractor ride on level ground, avoiding the ups and downs of pot holes, as the tractor rides on level ground. Once level you can spin it back around and grade ant angle you want w/o pot holes. Like any attachment, there is a learning curve. Congratulations on a fine purchase. Thanks for the review.
Thanks, Paul! And thanks for the tip! I’ll definitely right that out.
Nice Blace. A little up there in cost but if you use it a lot it's well worth it. If you don't use it a lot a little over price. I only use mine when snow blowing. I drag it when I snow blow and gets my black top drive clean. THat's the only reason I use my tractor, snow blowing my driveway. $37,000 Tractor to snow blow a 350 foot driveway 12 for wide and 24 foot wide at the garage for another 90 Feet. But it's all up a 45 degree hill. Except going down. :)
Thanks so much... buying one tonight....
Awesome! It will be a long wait because of the lead time, but it was worth it to me. Thanks for watching!
Great overview Martin, it really is a multi position rear blade 👍🏻
Thanks! Yes it is. The offset was a must for me.
Excellent content. Great tool!!!
Glad you think so! Thanks for watching!
Great video as always Martin! I also very much appreciate the comparison section. I think the blade would be a perfect tool for maintaining the ditches on my half mile road. My only issue is getting delivery to my land as I'm 3000 miles away most of the time. My Kubota dealer would probably rather me buy a land pride than accept delivery of a competitor, but I am definitely getting my blade and grapple from EA as my next attachments.
Thanks, Dave! Yeah 3,000 miles away complicates delivery, but talk with Travis to see what they might can work out. If I get a grapple, it will probably be an EA grapple. Thanks for watching!
EA implements are awesome. Good video as always.
Yes they are. Thanks for watching!
I have this same blade. The offset feature is well worth the extra money. I plow snow with my front loader, offset the blade and can take a 6-7 foot swath each pass. I also raise the blade to push back the snow banks as we get more snow. Had to grease my offset as well to get it to slide easier. Great video. Russ. Esko, Minnesota
Hi Russ! Sounds like you have a good method going. My trick for dealing with snow is to live where I rarely have to deal with snow. Thanks for watching!
Congrats on the purchase. My brother bought one of those and they are very nice.
Newbee tip: push backwards like a bulldozer so the tires of your tractor are rolling over the newly smoothed ground. Driving forward while dragging the blade will cause the blade to follow the pitfalls your tractor sees. Careful though that you don’t bend your link arms. 3 points can handle snags while pulling better than pushing.
Thanks, Stephen! I appreciate the tip!
Hello there Martin!!! That is a nice back blade!!! You'll be more than happy with it I'm sure. Like you, I was looking for a back blade that would be easily offset from side to side. I don't know why all manufacturers don't design this feature into their equipment. It makes the back blade so much more versatile and useful!!! Thanks for posting and congrats on your new toy, err I mean tool!!! Take care!!!
Hi Mike! Thanks! Yes it is and yes I am! I agree the offset feature should be standard but it seems not many makers include it. Thanks for watching!
Nice video. Good to hear that you had a positive experience with EA. I have never worked with them, but I have seen some youtube videos/reviews that weren't totally positive.
Thanks! There will always be some reviews with negative experiences. As long as they treat me right, I’m good with them. 😀
That product is certainly one of a superior quality. The offset feature is awesome for when it is needed. I can do that with the old, old pull type iron wheel road grader and it is a real handy feature. Every tool comes with a built in learning curve. Some tools have gradual curves but some curves are hard to negotiate well. LOL. If you have a long roadway that's on a rolling hillside, the tilt angle would be a perfect function to maintain proper drainage easily. Another great high quality production from you Martin. Keep up the good work buddy !!
Hi Wendell! EA makes great attachments for sure. Yes, learning curves vary and I’ve already gotten some good tips from viewers. I love that about TH-cam! Thanks for the kind words and I hope you have a great 4th of July!
Congrats Martin, great acquisition. That blade is made like a tank. I too have several EA implements and they have stood the test of time. Their implements are a bit more costly but the quality surely makes up for the cost. You're right, it takes a bit to get used to the depth that it cuts. Didn't take much to dig into the surface, did it? Excellent video. Have a fine week. Full-watch. 👍🏽🙂
Thanks, Don! Yes it is and I may be getting more EA implements in the future. Hope you have a most excellent week too!
Martin, I built dollies for my grader blade and box blade as well from scrap lumber and harbor freight casters... make moving those thing around a lot easier! Mine look a lot like that!
Hi Kevin! Yep, dollies are the way to go, IMO. Thanks for watching!
Good evening Martin. Looks well built! Seems you have throughly covered all of the bases about the blade, maybe an EA sponsorship in your future??? I think it would greatly benefit them. We love watching all of your content!
Thank you for the encouraging words! I’m not holding my breath for a sponsorship, though. So glad you enjoy my videos! Thanks for watching!
Very helpful, I was about to buy a Land Pride blade!
Glad to hear I steered you toward a better choice. Thanks for watching!
Good video. I called to order but EA but things are 4 months out as of January 2022. Good news they said they’d spray it Kubota orange. I wish they had one in stock for these bad Montana winters.
Thanks, Dave! I don't think EA stocks anything but instead builds to order. They've always had long lead times but typically deliver sooner than what they estimate. Thanks for watching!
Pretty good for a newby!
Great vid.
I didn't read all ~80 comments so if this was already said, oh well.. But I wanted to point out for anyone who doesn't have such an adjustable blade or isnt willing to pay for it that even IF you don't have an adjustable lift arm that would let you get a little angle, you can still run your top link all the way in or all the way out. Having the blade tilt forward or back also results in one side being lower when it is angled side to side (which i think almost all of them for actual tractors do). It's sure not 30 degrees but its better than nothing and in combination with an adjustable lift link on one side it might be quite a bit (never tried to max it myself). Of course it also changes the angle that the blade engages the ground at but since you usually have the option to run the blade forward or backwards and can control excessive digging with the 3 pt height, i still think it's useful.
Or just spend the money and get something THIS nice! I don't think i have enough property to justify upgrading from my basic blade, but.. when has that ever stopped anything else i did! Hmm
Thanks for the tips! Perhaps you should considering buying more property to justify a fancy rear blade. 😀 Thanks for watching!
I have a heavy duty rear blade on my 2520 John Deere. t is made for a much larger tractor than the 2520. When I have put it on the 520 John Deere without the loader, it will lift the front wheels off the ground when you raise the 3 point. I also have the box blade on my Kubota L2501. I often find myself going for the Kubota instead of the Deere because of the size, it is so much handier to use in confined areas. I noticed that the plastic wrap around your blade had the weight written right on the outside. Your new blade looks well built and I am sure you couldn't find another one on the market anywhere that is as versatile as the E.A. blade is. It has a good home now. Happy Independence Day Martin.
Hi Gary! Sounds like you have heavy heavy duty rake! Yes, I noticed the shipping weight written on it too. I think that blade and I are going to get along well. Thanks for watching and happy 4th of July to you too!
Nice job. Looks like EA quality all day long!, I receive my land scape rake in 12 weeks from EA just like they promised! I asked if them would paint it orange like my Kubota they did with no change also. There a great company to deal with!
Thanks, Sam! Glad to hear they were willing to paint it orange for you too!
Wish I would've bought one 2 years ago. They're $1700 bucks now!
Darn, I was hoping that you were getting a grapple! I have a LandPride rake and can get the blade attachment for that, but I doubt I ever will. Thanks for the review though, the family loves watching your videos!
Hi David! Chin up! I may yet get a grapple one day. So glad to hear your family enjoys my videos! Thanks for watching!
@@DIYMyWay I hope you do. I know lots of pallet fork guys say they don't want/need a grapple, but I have both and rarely use the pallet forks except for, well, moving a pallet. :D
Dear Martin
Great Video on the Blade
I too own a Blade very close in design to your
But not a EA
I love my blade very much I got it used In a Deal I made with a Old 8N Ford I
It has all the same features that yours has
One option that really makes a Difference is a Hydraulic top link
I love all your videos and all your hard work
GODSPEED SIR and talk soon
Edward Martin
Thank you, Edward! Yes, I may add a top n tilt kit to my 3 point one day. Thanks for watching!
Good evening Sir 😉 Great implement 👍 I always like your camera run under your tractor Sir 👌😊 Great customer Service 👍👌😊 Great video and congrats on your first use Sir👍💪 Cheers 👌😊
Hi Dave! Thank you, kind sir! I’m really enjoying the rear blade. It’s a great addition to my implements. Thanks for watching!
@@DIYMyWay You will find if not all ready that is very handy attachments to have for working into the forest ( skiding wood etc ) as per example Cheers 🍻😊
Martin, the production value of your videos is always so impressive! The scraper blade looks great. I had one in the past, but sold it years ago when I was “tractorless”. One thing I found to be handy is soft dirt was to reverse the blade, but drag forward - essentially backdragging. Regardless of how you use it, you’re going to love having that blade! Thanks for sharing. -Ed
Thanks for the kind words, Ed! Paul Bruni also gave me the same tip about reversing the blade in soft soil. I’ll definitely try it. Thanks for watching!
Since you shop at EA for tractor implements like I do, you should look at there land plane for your gravel driveway. That attachment does an awsome job.
Hi Gary! Yes, I’ve seen videos on land planes and they do a great job. But since my box blade and landscape rake also do a great job, I can’t justify the expense. Thanks for watching!
The dolly is genius idea!!!!!!
Great video and I think you are correct in that you get a lot of value for the money you put out. That added bonus is it's not this bad quality stuff coming out of China but made with pride right here in America. I believe the Stoney Ridge Farmer has highlighted some EA implements as well and is very high on their build quality. I was curious do they make any kind of attachments for skid steer equipment?
Thanks, Jimmy! I don’t know but if you visit their website you can find out.
@@DIYMyWay I did check out EA's website and they do make attachments for not only skid steers, but also for excavators as well.
Nice review...better display of capabilities than the OEM videos. Question: what is the "reach" of the blade under full side shift...at both pivot points...beyond the outside edge of the rear tires ?? What is full width of your rear tires...for comparison to my tractor. Want to use a rear blade to push snow berms off the side of a road to make room for more snow...called push-backs or benching. EA says only 24 inches...not enough for my purpose. Wondering if you have "real world" numbers. Thank you in advance ! Nice equipment on a beautiful property....enjoy !!
Thank you, kind sir! The reach is 24 as I recall. However, if you got the 7ft blade, it should be more. The wheel base on my L3901 is 63.3” Thanks for watching!
Hey Martin, Thanks for showing this video. I remember one of your videos where you did maintenance of your road with an EA landscape rake that has similar functions as the scrape blade. How do you decide when it’s appropriate to use one implement vs the other?
You’re welcome! I only use the scrape blade on the driveway if a lot of gravel has washed off of the driveway. Otherwise it’s the box blade followed by a grooming with the landscape rake turned around backwards. Thanks for watching!
Shortening the top link will make a less aggressive cut. Likewise lengthening the top link will cause a more aggressive cut. Soft soil would benefit from a less aggressive cut giving you better control.
That’s a good tip. Thanks! I should have figured that out since I do the same with my box blade. Thanks for watching!
I went to purchase one of these blades recently. The price has increased quite a bit which isn't a surprise I suppose but the 3~4- month wait was a deal breaker for me. Going to need to find something else.
Hi Hugh! Yep, prices are up a lot on everything. The 3-4 month lead time is typical for EA products but was well worth it for me because I love the ruggedness and versatility of that rear blade. Thanks for watching!
Wow, prices are way up since this vid came out. $1,712 for the 5’ blade
Yep, they sure are! I’m glad I bought when I did. Thanks for watching!
Hey boss, really random question, but what wireless system do you use for your lavelier mic? Comes through really well! I hate dragging wires around
I use a Comica CVM-WM100 system and have been very pleased with it. Thanks for watching!
Thanks for the review of this blade and the comparison to the others I have been looking at also. I like it. So you think I can get them to paint it J.D green?
You’re welcome, Rod! I don’t know but it can’t hurt to ask if they’ll paint it JD green. Thanks for watching!
@@DIYMyWay I think I will give them a call and find out. Thanks for your review on that blade. Not cheap but I like it the best.
@@DIYMyWay watched again. Positive thinking!
Hi Martin, Thanks for the video. It was very helpful. Could a box blade perform the tasks you did today and if you could only have one, would it be a box blade or a scrape blade? Thanks. Tom McC
Hi Tom! There functions overlap for sure but there are things each can do that the other can’t or can’t do well. If I had to pick one, I’d pick the box blade. Thanks for watching!
It would be helpful if a buyer could eventually purchase the necessary weld on components to make the plain Jane blade hydraulic actuated for tilt , offset, and swivel without having to bite the big bullet all at once.
Hi Gerald! Yes, it sure would. Thanks for watching!
I really like having a rear blade and I did look at the everything attachments rear blade however I went with a bush hog brand blade and I really like it bush hog is also a USA made product and they're not as expensive as land pride however my blade is an 8 ft blade and it weighs more than everything attachments blade and that is the reason I went with it
Sounds like you made a good choice for your needs. 8ft is a pretty wide blade so I can see why it would weigh more. Thanks for watching!
i am looking for a rear blade and this review, and blade, has everything I am looking for, tilt, offset, and rotation.
Glad you found it helpful! Thanks for watching!
And I asked for it in Kubota Orange and got it at no extra charge
How did you change the angle with a crank?
This video explains how I did it: A 3 Point Leveling Box for My Kubota L3901 (#19) th-cam.com/video/1GX1Ii0kqIE/w-d-xo.html. Thanks for watching!
I've never had an implement shipped to me that didn't have some scuffs in the paint or dings and scrapes here and there.... That's how it goes.
Yep, same here. Thanks for watching!
I was just about to pull the trigger on the Land Pride RB1572 but after seeing your comparison chart, it’s clear the Everything Attachments model is a much better value. Are you still happy with your purchase?
Hi Darryl! Yes, I am. It’s built like a tank and hasn’t let me down yet. Thanks for watching!
Where did you get your back bl;ade? What Company?
I bought it directly from Everything Attachments. Thanks for watching!
Just a novice here but if you have a box blade do you really need that?
Yes I really do. Thanks for watching!
Gosh, it looks like their prices have jumped up a third since this video.
I’m not surprised. Just about everything is up 33% these days. It’s obscene! Thanks for watching!
Rear blades are mostly used for snow removal. Box blade is the way to go in your application...
That may be true up North, but hear in the South, we use them mainly to grade the landscape. For me it's perfect for leveling trails because it can be angled and tilted to scape dirt from the high side and move it to the low side of a trail. The box blade is great for smoothing out trails or land in general because they shave the dirt of the high spots and dump them in the low spots. Thanks for watching!
Did you bring it home in truck bed? Or have it delivered?
You’ll find the answer to your question in the video. Thanks for commenting!
Does your company sell stump buckets?
I don’t have a company, Ron. But I think Everything Attachments does sell stump buckets. You can look on their website and find out. Thanks for watching!
I've been trying to contact EA about this unit. No response and voice mailboxes are full. Disappointing
I know this is probably their busy season but there’s no excuse for them not being reachable. Good luck and thanks for watching!
אתה אדם נחמד😊
Why would you have to order a back blade??? You can pick them up at any fleet farm l&m tractor supply or farm implement there is
You would know the answer had you actually watched the video.
@@DIYMyWay my apologies I would have watched the whole video but I get bored too easy
No worries. If you haven’t tried it already, you might try increasing the playback speed to 1.5 of 1.75 like I often do. Thanks for watching!
Well, that just cost me $1035.
LOL! Happy to help you spend your money. Thanks for watching!
Six month wait, bought a Woods instead.
