    Rotery Blades

    About a year ago someone posted a site that would exchange old blades for new ones for a very reasonable price. I had the site bookmarked but my computer died and I cant remember the website address. Im thinking it was in Michigan or Minnesota?? Does anyone remember the post and can help me with the web site address? I really liked their service and price for blades!! Thanks

    Take a look at lpsharp.com - not sure if this is the one, but they exchange blades at a reasonable price!

    I have never found blades that have been sharpened to be as efficient as new ones.

    Maniac they exchange used ones for new ones, you don't get yours "resharpened" and returned according to the web site. The ones I got from them are fantastic! And I think the price is well worth it. I use a LOT of blades and need to save wherever I can!

    Harbor Freight Tools sells ( or at least USE to sell ) rotary blades that are used for cutting carpet, They fit exactly with the standard sized cutter and are a whole lot less expensive than going to a quilt shop for them. They come 2 to a card and the item # is 97642 distributed by Central Forge. I think I paid 3 or 4 dollars for each card of 2.

    LPSharp gives you a couple options, you can send them your old used blades in exchange for brand new ones at a great price or you can exchange for sharpened used ones it is your choice. It is a great way to get rid of those old dull blades, so much better than throwing them away
