I've been waiting for my blades for weeks. They have been on back order and I haven't received any notice they have been shipped. Maybe I should check in again with them.

I had an email this past Monday from HF.
They have shipped my blades and sent a tracking #.

I ordered but have not seen any up date on the order. They sent me a card saying they were back ordered a couple of weeks ago. Maybe mine will be shipped next.

If you ordered from HF & received your blades, how do they compare to the regular blades? Do they seem to cut about the same, last longer, is you mat holding up? Maybe I will try the local hardware store to see if they carry the blades.

I went to Harbor Freight this week, as I had a coupon. However, the salesgirl never heard of 45mm rotary blades used for sewing. I looked through the entire store and couldn't find any, either. I just ordered a ruler with a sharpening edge for rotary blades, and I'm going to see if that works.

They are not carried at Harbor Freight for sewing.
They are carried as replacement blades for rotary carpet cutters.
They are hung on hooks with the rotary carpet cutter itself that has blades included, and then as packages of 2 blades as replacements for that cutter.
Just so happens they fit our quilting rotary cutters!
