The way I would separate them is to save two copies, then cut away one different blade in each copy. I would also add some default datum planes prior to importing the stl file instead of just opening the stl file. This way you could center each blade on the datum planes. If you then want a clean part without the cut, just re-export the parts and import them again, you'll have only one blade per part then.
 
If you make a copy you can go into redifine> hit the delete key and start picking the quilts of one blade to delete. This will leave you with one blade only.
