I find caring for your cutter like this is as important as caring for your machine. BUT I must agree with some of the other ladies I can't get on with Olfa blades, even the titanium ones didn't last as long as the ones that I use, Westcott. I have one in my cutter which is months and months old and I do a LOT of cutting.
