Thread: Harbor Freight Blades

Check Margaret and make sure you don't have two blades together. They come two per package---when I first purchased them I thought it was one blade and put both in my cutter. It didn't cut! They have oil between them to keep them from sticking---be careful though in moving them apart.

I have been using them for over a year and have had really good luck with them---after I discovered they came two per pack.

Good luck!

I've had the same blade in my cutter for what seems likes forever and no complaints. I do a fair amount of cutting, probably nothing like some of the really prolific quilters here on the board, but I like the blades from Harbor Freight.

I heard they were so good and much cheaper than the others but I hate them. I bought 4 packs and they will not cut for me either. I just stick to the little higher brands. Cheaper in the long run for me

I have not had good luck with them.

I have used several packs and no problem. Although I have found if there are 2 stuck together, they won't cut butter.

I buy them all the time. I changed the blade just today, and had problems with it not cutting. It wasn't the blade
but how it lined up in my cutter. I loosened the screw, wiggled the blade (carefully, as to not cut myself)
Tightened everything back together, and away I went. It just wasn't lined up right, and wasn't rolling when I cut
with it. I could tell, it was 'pushing' the fabric. Hope this helps anyone that has had a similar problem.

I've used them day in and day out for months now....never had a problem. Love 'em and the price!!

i am sew with you! i bought those blades online, and they chewed the fabric worse than a dull blade, i bought them
online. bad purchase
