I do not know about their web site but in the store they are in the carpet cutting section.

I've had one in my cutter for months now and haven't had to change it yet. They work great.

Thanks for letting us know what area to find them in. I was in a HF this weekend and could not find them. The one clerk I asked didn't have a clue. Will look again next time I am in HF.

I recently started using these blades and I love them. They go through several layers of fabric at a time and even if I have to change a little more often they are so uch less expensive that it does not matter. It sure beats fighting a dull blade because you cannot afford a replacement.

Nope, you're not the only one. The "cheaper" shows in quality and length of ability to even cut. I've invested in a rotary blade sharpener and am I ever glad I did.

Are they much cheaper than when on sale at JoAnn's?

Just make sure the package never looks opened. That's the only one I had trouble with. It was pretty obvious that someone had replaced new with old. Had to be a carpet layer, a quilter would never do that!
