Blade of an edger having cladded surfaces

An edger blade, the edger blade comprising:

• a blade body having a first major surface, a second major surface, and a minor surface, the second major surface being opposite to the first major surface, the minor surface connecting the first major surface and the second major surface around a perimeter of the blade body, and the minor surface comprising a first longitudinal edge, a second longitudinal edge, a first lateral edge, and a second lateral edge;
• and
• a cladding layer disposed on at least one of the first major surface, the second major surface, the first longitudinal edge, the second longitudinal edge, the first lateral edge, and the second lateral edge;
• wherein the cladding layer comprises a hardness in a range of 800 HV to 1500 HV.
