Clipper blades are usually made of:

  1. Stainless steel

  2. Carbon steel

  3. Plastic

  4. Titanium alloy

The correct answer is: Carbon steel

Clipper blades are typically made of carbon steel instead of stainless steel or titanium alloys because carbon steel is the most commonly used material for its sharpness and durability. Plastic blades may be cheaper, but they tend to be less effective and can get dull quickly. Stainless steel and titanium alloys are stronger and more resistant to corrosion, but they are also more expensive and not necessary for the precision and function of clipper blades. Therefore, option B is the most accurate answer.
