Harbor Freight blades....Have They Changed?
#13
I have not ever had a problem with the Harbor Freight blades and have used them probably going on 4 years. I do know other people have reported problems, but for me they can't be beat for the price.

Ditto for me. They work great for me and seem to last a long time, too.

I should add that I've been using the HF blades since they were first "discovered" and loved them. Oh sure, a few were not good, but opened another pack and it was fine. But 4 pks!!! 8 bad blades??
Has any one else noticed that the rotary 45mm blades from Harbor Freight are not of the same quality they were when they first came to our attention? I had 5 pks I purchased in the fall and just opened one - well, 4 of them actually! That's 8 blades and every one simply creased the fabric! I tried 4 or 5 passes and do know that there are 2 to a pack. They used to be great, but not one of the 8 was usable! Darn! Back to Olfa for me!
