There are three blades in one of their cutters. The cutters sell for $3.59. Those of you who have not been able to get any because they are out, you can still get some of those blades that way, a little over a $1, still much less than the price the LQS charges. Throw that cutter out, it doesn't work very well. Probably the new blades being ordered are not selling for the same price.
