I get mine on eBay. They ended up being about $3.00 per blade that way, but I had to try a few times, because I was placing bids. However, it was well worth the challenge, and I have blades to last a long long time. Has anyone tried the blad sharpening tool? I have been told that it doesn't work very well.

I have used the same OLFA 60mm blade for over a year, and I cut anything and everything with it...even ultrasuede..which dulls it a bit quicker, but I clean it, sharpen and off it goes again!
Of course with nearly 100 blades in my house(that I could not sell)..I really don't need a blade to last a year..but it is nice to know that it can!

You send them your old blades and a check (or PayPal) for the replacement blades and they send you back brand new blades and don't charge for shipping. If you belong to a guild they have a program for that, also. I have tried the Harbor Freight blades and they are awful, and they are not big enough to fit in the 60mm cutters.
