If the blades are detachable, the container must feature an o-ring in-between the container's base and body to actually seal the container and prevent leakage.

For low-powered blenders, you still need to add some liquid so that the blender will function accurately. This is since the liquid can move the solid particles around the jar, bringing it in close contact with the blade.
