I learned that Harbor Freight does not order a large amount of the carpet cutter blades. I have gone there just after their delivery, and never saw more than 10 except one time, and that time there were 11 packages. I purchased ALL of them and offered them for sale here. Postage is minimal, but if you want 5 packages it is going to cost more in postage because of the weight.

Maybe I am better off without them, as I use that ruler a lot. :)

they are called replacement carpet cutter blades...Part number 97642. I bought mine in Indianaplis Indiana this summer. They work fine. The cost has gone up from 1.49 to 1.99 for two replacement blades. but compared to ordering from a notion supply house they are a goood buy.

My brother went to Harbor Frieght and picked up the one package they had for me. I may just order online. But he said he will check everytime he goes . I bought a bunch of blades from jhittle some time ago and still have quite a bit. so its ok if it takes a while to get here.

I bought some from HF and it kept skipping, left a huge mess of my fabric having to cut over it 2-3 times and then having a spot or two missed. Is there a right and wrong way to put them in the cutter? Was very disappointed.
