For my creative work I need scalpels and blades. Buying good quality Swann Morton blades in small packages is very costly. So I bought 200pcs Box. Whenever I take a new blade, I think how I will pick from this box mostly for the next 40 years of my life. I might even die before I used the last blade. But then again, that was how I got my first blades from my grandfather back when I was a teenager. It seems to be a pan-generational item in our family.
