I just picked up two packages to try, but haven't used them yet. I'll buy more if these turn out to be good.

There is no name I don't think. All it says here is 2 pc. Item 97642 Central Forge Replacement Carpet Cutter Blades. I haven't had to buy any for quite a while now. I think I got 16 packages, and like I said, I have been using the same blade since last October and it is still sharp.

Ask for carpet cutter blades - It is a black, red and yellow package with plastic over the top and on the back it says Distributed Exclusively by Harbor Freight Tools.

I hope this helps you - load up lady!!!!! Edie
