I too use the Harbor Freight blades. While they are fine when they are new, I have noticed that they do not stay as sharp as long as the pricey ones. That being said ... I can but a lot of HF blades for the price of an Olfa blade. I also have one of those hand held sharpeners that I bought at JoAnns that extends their life a bit longer.
