Even if you don't have arthritis, get one that has ergonomics in the mix.
I have a Fiskars ergonomic (circa 1990) ... and can cut a lot longer with it, than many of the other brands/styles that are not ergonomically friendly.
While it's old, I noticed last year that they were still selling the same one, so it must have been a good one! :)
As for blades, I've always used Olfa. Though in making a purchase, if I were you, I'd double check!
