I............love............eBay. This lot would have cost close to $100 at the craft store. I got it on eBay for less than $25. With all these blades, perhaps I can be less stingy in changing the blades to my X-acto knife.
Oh, which reminds me. This is one of the very interesting uses for corn when crafting:
One of the hard kernels is just the right size to use as a spacer when your retractable X-acto knife no longer retracts. (Is that "thinking outside the box" or just plain being cheap?)

Back when I worked in advertising there was a layout artist that would use an x-acto knife for weeks on end. On his drafting table was a small sharpening stone. He could get the blade sharper and pointier that original. The only reason he changed blades was when the blade became too small to work with.
it’s both! ;^)
How funny! I can appreciate your excitement over your big ebat score!
There is NOTHING like a new x-acto blade! I'm stingy with them too, and then when I change them I wonder why I didn't do it sooner!
