Patti - the saw uses plain end scroll saw blades. Just search for them on amazon.

I am sorry, but the blades in question were purchased for the Oster clippers so I could not answer this question.

Sorry, I have no idea. I am still using the original blade that came with the clippers.

There is an adapter available from porter cable that will allow other blades to be used if that is what you mean. I have it, but haven't used it.

You can change the blades out with other blade types. There are specific blades design for certain materials. There are blades designed for metal that you can use with any circular saw including this one.

I believe it just has more blades. I'm not sure it makes a difference. I just needed a new blade because mine was dull. This one suits my needs.

It uses the double edge razors that break into single blades. Or you can just buy the single edge blades

I don't know, mine has never lasted long enough to dull the blades. I've gone through two of them thus far. Probably on the waring site.

Hi Jim-The blades are generic and the machine is a beauty! It just gets the job done.

Specialized blades. The way they slide in and lock for stability makes me think you can't just pick up something generic. Mine have lasted quite a while though so I wouldn't worry about having to replace them often.

As far as I know, you must use their specific blades for it. I found mine at my local Joann store, but u can probably did them at their website (google it) if they still carry them. I'm not understanding the second half of your question. Hope this helps

Per Rockwell email response to my inquiry, any brand blades will work with the tool, as long as the size is right - 4-1/2 diameter, 3/8 arbor. So buy at any place. Also, Rockwell is going to issue more blades for this tool in "late April - May 2014".

It takes standard blades but they are not "straight shank" you can get them wherever you get the "straight shank" type. I like them better. They stay in the saw better.

I use the gold blades in mine. You just have to put a bit more torque into the screw that holds the blade then you would with a thicker blade.

Any double edge blade will work with this, and any other razor labeled as DE, Double edge, Safety Razor... Feathers, Merkurs, Sharks, Astras, Derbys, Personnas, Wilkinson, just to name a few.

I use an accu-sharp knife and tool sharpener. It does a fantastic job on this particular blade. When you see one; the way it is used is pretty self-explanatory.
