is there a variety of blade types, or are the blades all of the same style?

all the blades are the same great for wood or plastic and they are fairly thin so they have a bit of flex to them I am going to order another pack myself as i have just about gone through the 50 i bought last year

All the same. They're not great, but you can't beat the price. Go to Home Depot, and you'll get four blades for that price. I use a Fein multimaster, and the machine makes a bigger difference in the speed of cutting than the blade does. These ones just don't last as long, but as cheap as they are, I don't mind burning them up in one use cutting plaster or anything else they're not meant for. Even the bi-metal blades are useless in wood after you go through one nail. I usually save the dull blades for cutting Sheetrock or plaster.

All of the blades are the same . Wood cutting light metal ok but burns up blade quickly

Yes it is. I just bought it (thinking the same thing, 12 blades) and only received one pack of 4.

Yes, there are many different blade and scalpel types made for various uses. The number identifies the blade and or scalpel type you are using. These are standardized. Tina at Hairerazor.com

Just the blade. All reasonable manufacturers would name their products according the standard rules.

I have both and there's really no difference. Blades are the same length and appear identical other than the color.

i'm not sure. i wouldn't think they to be different. i wish they could have provided a better visual diagram of the type cuts each bit makes. this is a nice buy considering the cost to buy separate bits and yes i did add some separate bits to my collection

None. There is a blade kit that I bought at the same time that was around $12 and had six blades

Yes, they are like all double-edge blades, but frankly, they are not very good blades - not particularly sharp. You will do much better with Astra or Sharks.

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.

I'd stay with Oster brand blades. The blades are numbered and cut to different lengths. Decide which length you want to cut to and get the corresponding blade.

You can check your model and accessory part numbers at www.smallappliance.com. One thing I discovered just now is that, while I can get a variety of newer blades for my older model DLC-5, the stems on the blades now detach. So, I would be looking at the price of the stem AND the blade just to get a different blade. So, I compared getting a newer model to see if more blades come with new models. Nope. Still only comes with three blades. They're gonna getcha coming and going, I guess.

All the knives are basically the same except for length. I usually cut small items with the smaller knives such as a radish. The larger knives would cut for example, a loaf of bread. I think that is how they work best for me. I actually used the shredder to shave cocoanut. Hope that helps.

Yes, It comes with a standard use blade, Different tasks and materials use different blades though. good luck and enjoy it!

Yes. I received everything that the picture shows; case, bag and blades. Technically, there is one blade, a sanding pad and sandpaper to match, and two adapters for using different brands of blades.

They are the same. I don't know the replacement blade part number offhand, but there is a little pack of replacement blades included in the kit.

I can't answer for all blades but I would suggest you read the specs on Amazon when purchasing this item.

the blade is a normal drop style blade if you get non serrated , i believe the serrated blur blade is the tanto style.
