Dude!!!

I am only getting one frame from each blad I use. I am using the Logan 301 with the blades it came with. Is this normal?

thats odd, the blades should last pretty long unless the mattes you are cutting are really thick or dense board.

If the backer board was worn would that do it?

What size are the frames. I toss blades right after I cut one frames worth also . I'd rather have a easy clean cut since the cost of the blades are cheaper then re-cutting mats. Dull blades tend to have tear-out. Your backerboard should be replaced frequently also. It will cause the cut to drift and produce ragged cuts.
