This I agree helps prolong the life somewhat. Nothing like a new blade in the cutter though.

I just like cutting a little bit of sand paper, sharpens the blades ok. or Sullivans rulers wit the cutting edge, those are real nice!!

I saw that one online just today. I was wondering if it was worth the money. Thanks for posting!
