I currently don't own this anymore. I upgraded to a gas powered Troy Bilt. When I did own this, I believe the blades were a hard rubber. I don't remember them being replaceable, but I could be wrong. It does okay in light snow. Anything with ice, a lot of snow, or packed snow this doesn't work well. If you just have a small area, this would be a good one to have

Good Day! I haven't replaced the blades, but try ULINE as they have many supplies or may lead you to the right vendor. Good Luck! ~V~

The blade and the motor are, of course, metal. The rest is plastic. It is very sturdy. We have been using it for about 6 months now for frozen smoothies (very thick ones) and it hasn't let us down. Works like a charm every time.

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.

Plastic. Go with a metal version of these. Look for shiny metal rivets/screws on the sides, that is the give away for metal versions. I've been packing thousands of products for sale to customers for 20+ years. The only one I've ever found that works best and can replace the blades is the ULINE, H-380, 2" Metal Dispensers, 1/2 to 2", $11 each. Replaceable blades. 3M Scotch is disposable when blade wear out.

Don't know about the blades as I pulled the unit out of the box and realized that it would never hold up to any sort of serious use. (I am a serious user)I shoved it back into the box and sent it back. It's a piece of crap.

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!

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

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

Are you asking if the blades are stainless steel? If so the answer is there is the title description. They are stainless steel and are excellent quality.

I believe they are available from Amazon. I've never replaced the blade myself.

Anyone have any idea of the metal allows used in the unit? Of course you don't mind so much what the main shaft is made up, but I'm curious what the blade itself is make of..

They are completely plastic. Even the cutting edge is plastic. But it all works!

Yes. That's what I have and these blades are much better than the original! Awesome!

They are not. Those are the international blades. These are Solingen steel; they don't have the same stability of superior Henkels blades but are not trash.

Mostly plastic, everything you see that's white in color is plastic. Not sure what the blades exactly are but hey do not rust.
