I haven't looked at the manufacturer on the Olfa blades, but I did check fiskars and it's all the same product. They work like a charm. Thank you also for the mention of South Star Supplies, I will check their site as well. I am tinkled pink and happy as a peach over these blades. I am a skeptic and my husband and sons even moreso. We were all thrilled to discover not only the price of the HF blades, but even better, they are the exact same product and they work amazingly well.
