Also, I bought the "True Cut Rotary Blade Shzarpener" at Joann's (50% off coupon) - haven't used it yet - anyone else have one? - how do you like it? Thanks.

There is also a $10 min purchase - so that might help to level out the cost a bit. :D

I have been using them and I notice that they skip ALOT, and they don't seem to be as sharp either, but I bought several packs, so I am going to use them up and never buy them again.

i started out with only one package and never bought any more. they skipped from the start. i do much better on ebay even when it's a no-name blade and with shipping.

i bid for a package of 100 blades in a plain ziploc bag for $140.00 + $12.00 shipping. they came separated by small squares of oiled paper. satisfaction guaranteed.
i love them. they are truly sharp. i know that's a lot to lay out at one time, but i end up spending more in the long run otherwise.

so they ended up costing about $1.50 each. i'm satisfied with the price and definitely with the quality. i always check first with ebay.

I never had a problem with the blades and when I had a problem with a regular blade, it was because I had two blades in the cutter.

I've bought them and they have been very good. Even if one would be bad it's only $.90 compared to the Olaf price. Which I've gotten bad ones.
