Summary:A blender apparatus (10) includes a blender jar (14) having a base (16) and a container (18) for receiving food products; and a blade mechanism at least partially disposed within the blender jar (14). The blade mechanism includes a drive shaft (32) defining a shaft axis and being engageable with a drive mechanism for rotating the drive shaft (32) and first and second cutting blades (36, 38) mounted to the drive shaft (32). The first cutting blade (36) generally extends along the shaft axis and has at least one cutting edge (40) while the second cutting blade (38) traverses the shaft axis and also has at least one cutting edge (44). The first cutting blade (36) may have opposed cutting edges (40). The opposed cutting edges (40) may be dimensioned to extend to an apex (42) of the first cutting blade (36). The apex (42) may be generally sharp. The second cutting blade (38) may include a pair of opposed lobes (46) with each lobe (46) defining an arcuate profile and having a cutting edge (44). The cutting edges (44) of the second cutting blade (38) may be arranged in opposed relation.
