Yes, this is my "go to" site for many things at great prices....never disappointed.

I just bought 10 blades of the 45mm on ebay for 13.00. She also sells 25, 50 and 100 count packs and the more you buy the more you save. I think they must be a generic brand but they fit my olfa and work just fine. I have also bought resharpened blades on ebay and they work good but do have a greasy feel. You can buy your own blade sharpener too.

I have sharpened my needles on a sharpening stone, it worked great.

It is a green idea. You don't really save anything on the cost of new blades though.

This is great, good for the environment and we will save some money on the price of a blade.

Thanks for the tip! WalMart has titanium blades 5 in a pack for about $15.00. They seem to work well and last a while. If you have a Hancocks near you they carry the normal OLFA blades but at a MUCH cheaper price that JA's PLUS you can use JA'S PAPER coupon (not I phone!) at Hancocks. even on their SALE stuff.. I don't have Hancocks where I live but go several times while visiting my daughter in Idaho!! I am not a big fan of some of their fabric but I stock up on blades and Mary Ellen's Best Press..
