Is the blade durable & does it chip off after extended use?

have had one similar for two years in NC, holds up well no complaints, as with all snow shovels, after 50 some years in the Northeast, if the ground under the snow is rough and or rocky, with enough force it will not last long.

I wanted a snow pusher as wide as I can handle and with up to 3 inches of snow and this product really works for the snow we have had i the Midwest. It really does a good job with the metal strip on our driveway so we are happy with it.

We only have the shovel for a few months. We used it through 3 snow storms. So far, it seems to be holding up pretty well. It has not chipped.

Not really, I'd go as far to say no chipping at all. solid product. Has never failed.

it's not the thickest, but it's pretty durable.....I've cut many 2-3 inch limbs and small trees down with it so far....the only problem I've found with the blade is minor chipping of the edge.....

The blade is steel along with the adjustment screw parts. The handle/case with the electronics is plastic.If it is used properly as you would use an expensive caliper or micrometer, it should last a long time.

Yes, the plastic is "Durable" as plastic could be expected to be. Relatively solid & tight. The Serrated sharpening rod is the weaker point, you should make a point to very slowly and carefully pull it out and put it back in to avoid breaking, it is not overly thick in this compact sharpener. I have used it several times without issue, I am just careful and have avoided breaking it like a few others have so far.

I have had this juicer for 5 months, but only use it about twice a week. After seeing your comment I looked closely at my auger and did see some very small scratches on one of the chisel edges (I think that is the correct terminology), but really minor enough that I never noticed it before I went looking for it. I have no 'gouges' or chipping or breaking at all. For what it is worth, that is my experience.

I haven't used the Blade Buddy. However, I've had this for just over one year and would highly recommend it. In one year I'm still on blade number three with every day being a great close shave. The only reason that I've gone through this many blades is because on the first two the pivots broke after so many months (Mach III blades).

Yes! This knife is very much worth getting. I have had it for about 4 months now and it's bin nothing but good. It may need some sharpening but when it has that edge it lasts. I have bin putting it threw very heavy use and it has never failed me. Would recommend for everyone who wants a small fixed blade.

I don't know how long it will last but I have used the original blade for about a year and I have never changed the depth and it is still cutting effectively. Use has been once a week for average driveway and sidewalk edging.

It is quite durable! I would suggest not hitting the handle though, since that is where the speaker for the sound effects is. The blade can take quite a beating though!

My blades have been durable. You can do a search here on Amazon for Multitool blades and judge the expense for yourself. For me, it was not a matter if I wanted to spend the money for the tool; the fact is that the Multitool was the only way to do what I needed to do.

It's a great, sharp blade; but will tend to rust if not kept dry and maybe oiled. I've had mine for years and it's still rockin!

Yes, unfortunately. It however doesn't seem like some of the cheaper models where it will chip off easily, but I haven't had mine that long.

Is this knife worth the money? I believe so, since its been my everyday carry blade for about 2 years now. holds an edge well, and it also disappears into your pocket with its bayonet clip. if you buy this blade, chances are you wont regret it

Been had them for 6momths but never dropped it so not sure but it is thin steel so i believe it is easy to chip. But still good knife

I've never had that problem (over 3 years since I purchased it), although my blades did break, and needed replacing, after about a year.
