Lost Library's killing me!

I managed to get this far. I'm new to all this and my health is wasting away. I managed to kill the knight and got the two extra health's hidden away, but I can't get past those rotating blades to go back to the begining of the level. Any suggestions?

There's not a great deal you can do. I wouldn't recommend skipping the level. Even if you go back to the start and do it all again it's much more satisfying, or play a game that's been saved previously, before you reached the knight. The only other thing I can reccomend is, when you go past the 2 big cogs, jump onto the pole, lower yourself as low as you can without getting sliced, and drop (dont slide) past the lara-damaging wheel. Watch the pattern the wheel takes and look for when it's safest. Time consuming, I know, but it saves more health than you think when you get it right. The harder ones are going up the other pole. Again, time it right and move fast, and you could make it through on the one and a half medipacks you've sucessfully found hidden in that level.

Keep trying, and good luck.

Thanks for your help, I ended up skipping the level and then going back to complete it. Restarting at the point above the blades. I know that sounds silly, but I'd gone forward and thought I needed something so ended up going all the way back, only to find out what I needed isn't there. Now another delima I'll post separately. Thanks again.
