    I just purchased Dual Rotary Blade Sharpener. Has anyone ever used one of these.

    Got it on sale at Joanne's for $8.00. Hope it works, but no great loss if it doesn't.

    How can one tell if they need to change the blade on their rotary cutter?

    No, you are not the only one. Lets invent a rotary cutter that never needs a blade change. :? :? :?
