    Question:
    I recently purchased a Husqvarna String Trimmer Mower Model HU625WT.

    I have some weeds that are breaking the nylon cord. Also this trimmer mower throws weeds all over me and now I have a severe case of poison ivy.

    Does anyone know if I can order a metal blade substitute. I know that the DR Trimmer Mower offers a metal blade alternative.

      I thought very seriously about getting a string mower before settling on my 128djx and did not find any of any brand (besides DR) that offer a metal blade.  DR sells a thicker .175 diameter line through their site that might hold up a little better than the .155 line, but I think that's your only other option short of jury-rigging the shaft on your husq trimmer to accept a DR head and then using one of their attachments*.

      How do you like your husqvarna trimmer?  I've only ever used a swisher walk behind and loved it.

      *This is probably a terrible idea.
