Are the blades made in wood or plastic?

Apparently they are, as the instructions state "Blade/flange imbalance can occur due to the use of natural wood blades".

Hi Leeg, thanks for the question. The blades are Walnut/Dark Cherry colored. We hope that answers your question. If you need anything further Leeg, please reach out to one of our awesome experts. Not only do they know everything, but they're literally sitting right next to their phones right now :)Hansen Wholesale1-800-201-1193

The blade is metal and the rest of the slicer is made of a very thick plastic.

Yes the blades are metal but are held on by thick plastic. The handle is plastic so I would not use it for commercial use but with care it should last a longtime with care. It has server my family well the kids love to make snowcones.

No, they are plastic.. but hearty. I use my fan on my back porch... it moves a lot of air and keeps me happy. The plastic blades don't seem to mind the weather. Unless you need something really heavy duty, I recommend this fan highly....

Sorry, I no longer have the package and it doesn't say on the blades. I can tell you that they are a great product however and cut through branches, tree roots, etc. like a hot knife through butter.

No, it is a hard plastic. Or something. The blade is very sharp and forged metal. Very nice. Not a toy. Handle with caution.

They're definitely wood, just very smooth. I love mine - it works perfectly.

Apparently the blades are of a slightly different formulation of metal in order to better maintain a quality cutting edge. The blades are surprisingly sharp for standard SS place settings. We love ours after about six months.

The blades are metal and the part that connects to the clipper is plastic with an embedded magnet

The ones I ordered from Amazon were made in China. Before that I bought blades from Walmart and Wallgreens. I don't know where they were made but I think they all lasted about the same length of time.

The 'blades' are silicone, but I am not sure about the handles. The handles are harder (but slightly flexible) plastic. I don't think they are silicone.

it's plastic. made to look like wood, but very poor quality. wouldn't suggest buying this.

They are no longer made of wood. They are now using a high quality plastic to make their products. They are very well made and nice.

The blades are made of foam rubber and they don't hurt. I used mine for the first time over a very hot, humid weekend in September and it was GREAT!!! I love it!

No. All plastic. They are sharp and very strong though. In addition to shredding, I use them often for moving large pieces of hot meat from pan to cutting board etc.

It is made of plastic but it is still very sturdy and not as heavy to move around as a wood one would be. It isn't so light that it will move when you are cutting though. I do generally keep a bracing hand on the table of the cutter when I am cutting but that is mainly to keep the paper from moving.
