I have also managed to crack a blade and it would push the fabric & simply stop before I discovered it was cracked.
    I only use Martelli blades in my cutter now. I find they cut better and last longer and they are better for the cutter. It used to "pop" with the Olfa blades in it. Never had a problem with diagonal cuts.
