It was my first mat, and I didn't know any better. I LOVE my Olfa mat. Self healing and much easier on the blades.
i definitely agree. if the blades are sharp, it shouldn't matter what brand they are, should it? that was why i first tried the generic blades. as soon as i realized i got good value from sharp blades and they didn't get dull fast, i bought a lot of 100. i have a friend who worries about dying before she uses up her stuff. if i die before i use them up, so what? i'll be dead.
right on the mat. self-healing! and shower scrubbies for cleaning out those little lints that get caught in the cuts!
