A blade calibration gauge for a bladeset for a hair cutter has a moving blade laterally reciprocating relative to a stationary blade, where the moving blade and the stationary blade are adjustable relative to one another in a direction normal to a direction of reciprocation. The blade calibration gauge has a base defining a recess configured for receiving the stationary blade and providing a first stop for engaging a toothed edge of the stationary blade, and a second stop on the base disposed relative to first stop for providing a designed offset spacing for a toothed cutting edge of the moving blade relative to the corresponding toothed edge of the fixed blade.

The invention claimed is: 1. A blade calibration gauge for a bladeset for a hair cutter, the bladeset having a moving blade laterally reciprocating relative to a stationary blade, the moving blade and the stationary blade being adjustable relative to one another in a direction normal to a direction of reciprocation, comprising: a base defining a recess configured for receiving the stationary blade and providing a first stop for engaging a toothed edge of the blade; and a second stop on said base disposed on a common wall of said base and having a fixed offset relative to said first stop in the direction normal to the direction of reciprocation for providing a designated offset spacing for a toothed cutting edge of the moving blade relative to the corresponding toothed edge of the fixed blade. 2. The blade calibration gauge of claim 1 where the base has a first end configured for receiving the stationary blade and further includes a top portion provided with said first and second stops. 3. The blade calibration gauge of claim 2 where the distance between the first and second stops represents said designated spacing. 4. The blade calibration gauge of claim 1, wherein at least one of said first and second stops are adjustable relative to each other for varying said designated spacing. 5. The blade calibration gauge of claim 1 wherein said recess includes a floor configured for accommodating the stationary blade. 6. The blade calibration gauge of claim 1 further including a finger access opening for facilitating release of the stationary blade from said base. 7. The blade calibration gauge of claim 6 where said finger access opening is generally "D"-Shaped. 8. The blade calibration gauge of claim 1 further including a tool for adjusting fasteners securing the moving blade relative to the stationary blade, said tool having a handle with two axially arranged sections, each having a different style of grip, and wherein said base has a holder for said tool. 9. The blade calibration gauge of claim 8 wherein said holder includes a plurality of clips configured for frictionally retaining the tool, where said tool is a screwdriver having a handle with two axially aligned sections, each with a distinctive grip. 10. The blade calibration gauge of claim 1 further including a tool having a handle having at least two axially arranged sections, each handle section has a different style of grip, said first handle section is knurled and has a relatively smaller diameter forming a first of said styles of grip, and said second handle section has at least two fins projecting radially from said handle beyond said first section forming a second of said styles of grip, said first handle section is configured for rapid axial rotation and said second handle section is configured for exerting relatively high torque forces on said shaft. 11. The tool of claim 10 wherein, the tool is a screwdriver having a shaft connected to said handle and ending in a blade sized for fasteners used in removable bladesets. 12. The tool of claim 10 wherein said two axially arranged sections are disposed axially adjacent to each other for facilitating user hand movement from said first section enabling rapid axial rotation, to said second section, enabling exertion of relatively greater torque forces, and said fins are 180�� apart from each other. 13. A blade calibration gauge for a bladeset for a hair cutter, the bladeset having a moving blade laterally reciprocating relative to a stationary blade, the moving blade and the stationary blade being adjustable relative to one another in a direction normal to a direction of reciprocation, comprising: a base having two side sections facing one another connected by a top section, a recess defined between the side sections and the top section, said recess defined by two interior side walls and an interior top wall and having a floor portion between said interior side walls; and said interior top wall being defined by lower and upper surfaces offset from one another in a direction normal to a direction of reciprocation of the blades to define a respective desired offset of the stationary blade from the moving blade. 14. The blade calibration gauge of claim 13 further comprising at least one projection from a free end of each side portion on said base positioned to partially define said recess and provide a biasing force against the stationary blade positioned in said recess. 15. The blade calibration gauge of claim 13 wherein said floor portion is configured to receive the bladeset, stationary blade down, with a toothed edge of said stationary blade touching said lower surface of said interior top wall and the edge of said movable blade being adjustable so that it contacts said upper surface of said interior top wall. 16. The blade calibration gauge of claim 15 where said top section has a holder for a tool suitable to adjust fasteners connecting the moving blade to the stationary blade, said tool having a handle with two axially arranged sections, each having a different style of grip.
