Talking Harbor Freight

They are on to us. The last package of carpet cutter blades I purchased states that the blades can be used with 45mm rotary cutters, and are "Ideal for Cutting Carpet or Quilts"!

When I was making the folded star quilt balls I would buy the dress maker pins by the pound at a place when you bought upholstery fabric. it was a warehouse for upholstery fabric. When I started buying the pins they were $4.95 for a pound. Told a few friends about it - within 60 days our pins were costing $15.00 a pound.

Well, the last time I purchased the quality was horrible..even right out of the box they skipped badly. So I stay away from them...

I think the blades work well for the price. I have no problem using them. I might get one that skips but then i have name brand one skips as well.

Same here, being so inexpensive I can afford to use them a few times and dispose of them.
