three-blade

Fan with three

Three-blade describes something having three blades, most commonly razors or propellers.

A three-blade razor has three parallel cutting edges for a closer shave.

A three-blade propeller, whether on a boat or aircraft, balances efficiency with smoothness.

I switched to a three-blade for less irritation.
