I know this has been discussed, but here goes anyway. What a wonderful forum. I have learned so much and I have tried really hard to move from lurker to contributor. I read and read all of the posts about hf blades so I ordered 10 packs! Their shipping is outragious and rediculous-but even with that- what a deal! I could hardly wait to try them out and I have to say- they are great. So I got to thinking. I'm a painting/wallpaper contractor and I pay about 5 dollars for a pack of five wallpaper blades. I found them on HF - 1 dollar for 10 blades. Unbelievable! And the wallpaper knives that I pay about 4 dollars for are 99 cents. Next time I order, I'm just going to order about a hundred dollars of what ever i need and be done with the pesky shipping thing for a year! Thank you gals!
