http://www.harborfreight.com/catalog...+cutter+blades

There is a safety grip handle under the assisted living section that I found. The cutter blades fit an Olfa cutter.

these have suction cups

And what are they? I think I figured it out. I saw that its a handle with suction cups on it that grips your ruler when cutting.

Don't forget about the 20% coupon and coupon for a free small LED flashlight for Harbor Freight in your Sunday coupon flyer sections too.

I use the bath safety handle for the same purpose others use the quilt handle gripper. I got one on sale at Bed, Bath & Beyond, plus a 20% off coupon. Turned out to be much cheaper and works exactly the same. In fact I believe it IS the same thing, just labeled different for quilters. And marked UP for quilters.

good luck in finding them in stock...DH carried me there to day we have to drive 47 miles one way...we had our RV in Raleigh having some work done on it..we went to pick it up and to Harbor Freight...they were out of the blades...but they had the tool they fit in and there were 3 blades with it (as posted before) for a total of $4.30...DH said well that is cheaper than what you have been paying and you can throw the handle away...so I got one...when we got home I went on line to order some more and they are on back order...we will be leaving for FL Sept. 19 and we stay in Charleston SC for a week and Jacksonville FL for a week and they both have the store...so maybe I can find blades there if not I will order when we get to Tampa....

Suction cup handles are used on the rulers to hold them in place while you cut. Mine is oraginally a bathtub safety handle but when I saw it used in a picture on this board I have used one for the ruler. It is wonderful. Keeps fingers out of the way of the cutters and keeps the ruler from slipping.
