Those cheap Chinese knock-off Exacto blades may be selling for .99 cents, but shipping is $9.95!! So your essentailly paying more then $10 for something you can find at a dollar store selling for guess what......a dollar.Surprise

To be fair, the bid is for six sets of handles and blades with cases.

Remember, if the women don't find you handsome, they should at least find you handy.

You get what you pay for...when you find out the knife won't hold the blade tight and secure you'll wished you'd have not purchased them. I gave my set like this away long ago for that reason. We even sold them in the hardware store I managed...many sets were returned for the same reason. Safety.

Yeah, I once bought one of those copies. The worst thing was that the screws where made of plastic and would break (just like those on the ebay pic, the knive is fitted in a blue plastic "sleeve" instead of metal)
