does this have 1 or 2 blades? Lowe's has one that's cheaper with the same model number, but it specifically says it is a one blade planer.

My unit from Amazon has two blades. It also came with a spare second set of two blades, and a nice large plastic case. I think the lowe's unit comes with a cloth bag case.

1 wood blade is included. You can get a set of blades on here really cheap though. It does have a side compartment to hold 3 blades to keep handy for different project. I have used this thing a number of times with no issues. Still going strong.

It comes with one blade - the entire black post you see in the center of the product picture is the blade assembly. It easily pops out and can be moved between bowls in about a second. The blade itself is VERY sharp, but if you eventually need to replace it, it's $18 from ninjakitchen.com (including shipping). We've had ours for over a year, we use it all the time, and it's still going strong. I doubt you'd need to replace it for at least a few years.

It comes with one blade. I'm not sure how often you're "supposed" to change the blade, but I've been using mine for many months.

i'm pretty sure - but not 100% positive - that i got two blades. hope my memory is right. in case you are not aware you can buy them at any good hardware store - and they're not too pricey. different teeth per inch for different jobs.

It comes with one blade. It's recommended to replace about every third or forth shave but I can usually get a week+ out of one blade with irritation.

It comes with one blade. You buy blades separately. The Merkur blade was really great and would definitely order more after I use up my other blades

One blade. I knew the price was too good. Still, it's a good deal and the blades are good quality.

It comes with the one blade that is on it.. If I remember correctly it is a number 5. Standard blade.

No, it's a single blade. I'm looking to buy one as well - and this got better reviews than the double bladed ones. Every review I read for double bladed said that too much food gets stuck in between the blades. I think I'm going to order this one, it was also the only one I saw with no 1 or 2 star reviews - only higher ones.

It comes with two duplicate blades. One is an extra. They both have only one wing on one side.

The photo is not accurate. Mine came with ONE "blade". This is a fine tool and I think a very valuable one. I always carry it with me when I go to my carving clubs. Easy to use but it can be delicate if you are not careful. Think of it as a lemon/lime zester that you can use on wood. Although I use all the extra blades I purchased separately, I use the round one the most.

The Makita 2012NB 12 in. Planer is a 2 blade planer. Thank you for your inquiry!

it comes with 1 blade. But it´s excellent, and the blade is so good that can be used at least 1 month.

Yes it came with one blade and my husband has been using and says it is very handy to cut all the little corner edges and other small projects around the old house that we have.

3 blades. Maybe they introduced a new model and used the old picture.. but mine has 3.
