Thank goodness they were so cheap.
I've been using the same Harbor Freight blade in my 45MM Olfa rotary cutter since late July and it still cuts beautifully. I don't mean to be a smart alec, but since the blades come packed two to a package, is it possible you didn't separate them before putting one blade in your rotary cutter? If you check the other three threads on this board about the Harbor Freight "carpet cutters", you'll find that 99.9% of the quilters who have used them LOVE THEM. Perhaps you did receive a lemon, and I'm sorry that happened to you, when everyone else is thrilled with the price and the good performance of the blades. Belles
