Pro-filer question

I want to order a profiler, but the company website only lists radius 3/8, 1/2, and 5/16". I have wilson excel blades with a 1" radius. Can I order a 3/8" and expect it to work? Or would I need to have different blades before I can order this?
Thanks!

I really don't think you would be comfortable with 3/8. That's a pretty deep hollow and is great for landing doubles and holding super deep edges, but makes turning more difficult. It is also a radical change from the 1 inch hollow you are used to. Hollow can easily be changed when the blades are sharpened, just ask for 1/2, which you should be able to handle, and then get the 1/2 Pro-Filer.
