Last year Travers Tool had a big sale. Among other things I bought a bunch of hacksaw blades. Then TomG told me about some other blades they had, Starrett I think, so the next time I ordered, I bought some of them. Right now I have two hacksaws in need of blades. Do you think I can find even ONE SINGLE BLADE that I bought so many of?? Nope, not a one. I think from here on out, when I need a hacksaw blade I'm just going to go to the local hardware store and buy ONE blade. Saves losing the other 9 or 19 or 29, or ...

I have a stash of them too. But I don't remember where they are either.

I'm beginning to think they sneak back to where we bought 'em so we can buy them again.

You did good Vinny. Sounds like those blades are in a mighty safe spot.

Maybe you used them and don't remember, its an age thing.
Free advice is worth exactly what you payed for it.

I found them!!! Well not all of them, but 20 of 'em anyway. As long as I don't lose 'em again I should be good for a few years. Maybe during that time I'll find the others!

Yes, but 1000 blades would be much more difficult to misplace. :)

Not for me! Like I said earlier, I think they find their way back to the seller (be it a store, auction, whatever) to be resold - probably to me.
