I went to Harbor Freight to check and see if they have the carpet cutter blades. And yes they did. I only bought myself 2 packages. Soon as I can I am going to go and get some more. Anyways, I ask the girl at the checkout counter if its something that they always have in stock and she checked and said "yes we always have them in stock, in fact there are 30 packages in the back and what is on the shelf" Well what was on the shelf had to be at least 40 or 50 packages!!! But there was a ton of them. Just wanted to let you know that the Harbor Freight that is nearest me (an hours drive away one way) has a ton of them. :)

My girlfriend said she doesn't think they hold their sharpness as well as the other name brands. Let us know.;...

I looked online and they say you get two blades for $1.99. At that price I'd be happy if they didn't last quite as long as Olfa blades, but I do wonder. Hmm, should I try them?

I've bought some and I gave a couple to a friend of mine, we're still using them and have absolutely NO complaints.

Oh try them!!! I've been using them since September and have had very good luck. For 2 for $1.99.....you should at least give them a try.

I have had one in my cutter for over 2 months now and it is still very sharp. Like someone said, for the price they are I will re[lace them sooner if I have to. At a dollar a blade I think I can afford to.

WOW I'm gonna have to try them . MY MIL and I were just talking about replacing all of ours on Saturday
