That is funny. It is funny because I couldn't believe so many of us have done it.

But it's not our fault!!! (whining)

When you buy 5 packs of blades, they are oiled and stuck together. You risk losing a fingertip trying to get just one out of the stack!

So, it's the blade-maker's fault that Barnbum tried to cut with 2 blades!!

I've never done that before, but have tried to cut with no blade.

OMG. I am SO glad that I am not the only one to do this. I COULD NOT figure out what was up with my rotary cutter when this happened. I'd just changed the blades, but the thought that I had two blades in NEVER crossed my mind. I actually took my cutter to a friend, and we fretted about it for close to 20 minutes before we (truthfully SHE) figured out that I had two blades in. The good thing is that it will never happen again.
