Why is this so expensive? Blackwing sells it on their site for $19.95.

Whoa! I bought this a few days ago here for $19.95 and now it’s marked to $37! Remember that different vendors sell things here for various prices. Maybe I got the only one for twenty bucks til they resupply...or something. In the meantime the folks that are selling them for twice the price are the only one available. Just a guess.

does the sharpener come with extra blades since Amazon doesn’t seem to carry them?

It didn't come with an extra blade. I'm going to resharpen this one when the time comes, but for now, it's still cutting really well. The blade is stamped with a 'B', so I imagine that Blackwing will sell replacement blades directly.

Are replacement blades available?

Blades are available from Blackwing directly, but a set of 3 blades plus shipping costs almost as much as the sharpener. The original blade didn’t last long. After a few months, the points break off every time I attempt to sharpen the pencils. Going to look at other sharpeners.

How does this sharpener work on Prismacolor pencils?

Don't know. But there is this: sharp blades make all the difference. If you're goint to use a hand-sharpner, also buy some KUM standard blades, three to a pack, made in Germany. Also, if you're not geting the point you want, check to see if a broken lead is keeping the pencil from going all the way into the sharpner. Finally, the Blackwing sharpner is milled aluminum and resists wear. I can note the wear on my plastic-head sharpners. A jagged leading-edge in front of the blade can't be good for getting a precision point.
