When asked, “How long do Circuit blades last?”, we think for a guideline you could start with, that at a minimum, you should change your blade every two months with average use of your Circuit machine. If you’re cutting with it quite often, you might need to move that up to every six weeks.
Knives are generally 6” or less, while sword lengths usually measure a foot or more. While there is no established cut-off between a knife vs. a sword as far as length, the longer the blade gets, the more useful it becomes as a fighting weapon.
