Are the cutting tools durable and are replacement blades readily available and affordable?

My blades have been durable. You can do a search here on Amazon for Multitool blades and judge the expense for yourself. For me, it was not a matter if I wanted to spend the money for the tool; the fact is that the Multitool was the only way to do what I needed to do.

Yes, basic wood cutting blades are durable. Unit has adapters for the different blade bases. Most hardware stores will carry replacement blades. Amazon also has blades.

As I understand it this a tool intended to used on relatively soft materials such as wood or platic. Not on heavy gage steel or ceramics for instance. As such you will have no problem with the duration or performance of the tools. On their availability, so far Amazon has proven to be a good and reliable source, although many Sears storees do carry them. I hope this helps you makeup your mind about this tool.

Yes. Very reliable tool. Most blades fit the tool. I also purchased the versa tool multipack of blades 24.00 well worth it.

This tool comes with just one blade. The saw itself is top of the line but like any untempered steel blade they don't last long. I only justrecently had to purchase a replacement for the one that came with the saw. Depending on your needs you can probably get by with theless expensive blades. With a few exceptions most saws including Makita will accept the universal design replacement blades so, yes,blades are available and affordable. Hope this helps.

They do seem to last, and it comes with adapters so you can use other brands.

I don't know though, if you need a replacement, you might want to try Hock or Lee Valley/Veritas blades - they come in several types for hardness and sharp edges.

I do not think the blades can be replaced. Careful sharpening might be done but with proper care and used as designed I think these loppers will last many years without either being necessary.

I can buy replacement blades from CVS or Rite-Aid drug stores but the replacement blades are cheapest on Amazon.

The blade is reasonably durable, but like any metal cutting implement, it does require sharpening to keep its performance optimal. Personally, I use a diamond coated honing tool, and I sharpen it after every trip where it sees significant use

I bought a blade and it cracked after a few months. I just put my food processor away in the garage. Another blade doesn't seem worth it, but hand chopping herbs is very time consuming.

i have been using the replacement blades for two months and they are holding up just fine. i have used the bullet to make tomato sauce, margaritas with ice cubes, and many other dishes.

Yes I believe you can. Check the B&D website. There are also wholesalers online who will sell you other parts, like the blade, etc. But not all parts are replaceable.

Yes, definitely - the Fiskars website sells replacement blades for $7.99 each: http://www2.fiskars.com/content/search?SearchText=power+gear+lopper&x;=0&y;=0

Not sure. I only know ours burned up after the third time my husband used it. No chance to NEED replacement blades.

The blades themselves seem like they can last indefinitely. I was never told that they should be replaced yearly, so I've been using the same set for at least 20 years. They get dull, but they can be sharpened with some very fine grit sandpaper. What is more likely to wear out are the screens for the blades. They could break at any time after a few years. That's what happened to me. When they break, you need to buy a new set. The ones I bought here have been a good, cheap, reliable purchase.

I don't know about getting replacement blades. Mine came with 2 sets and I've used the first set several times without problems and haven't touched the second set so I haven't needed replacements.

There is no replaceable "cutters" and by cutters I'm assuming you are talking about the scissors . But like others have said the file and saw are replaceable and interchangeable. And I seen that you can buy a new saw and file set off amazon for about 5.00

Hi, Candy, I'm not the manufacturer. I'm a customer too. Have no idea if the blades are replaceable. Try contacting MIU France.

It says they are replaceable. Try going to Gardena.comAt the bottom it says contact. Click on it and a form will pop up. For subject choose spare parts. Ask where they may be obtained and they will answer. This is the first time I have seen that they are made in the US. So, if that is true, as well as them saying replaceable, you may be in luck. Wonder if someone sharpens them of you are unable to get a new blade?

Probably but message the manufacterer. You would surely meed to replace the blade.

I'm not sure. In my case, the motor does not work any longer, so replacing the blade wouldn't matter...
