olfa cutter - fiskars blades?
 
Do Fiskars blades fit on an Olfa rotary cutter?

My experience is that they are interchangeable

They do. All the different brands (in the same size) are interchangeable.

Why would you drive a Cadillac with the cheapest tires or gas available? :)
Go ahead and put Olfa blades in that cutter and you'll probably find that they are sharper and last longer than the Fiskars blades which you may have chosen to save $$ .:thumbup:

Mine do! Just make sure the blade is the correct diameter. :-)

They fit, but I think that Olfa has 3 sprockets. I have noticed that interchanging the blades causes wear to the "hub" of my cutters.

I got rid of my old fiscar rotary cutter and bought an olfa, WOW, what a difference, my 20 year old mat wasn't working either, my new set is absolutely terrific.

Good to know. I didn't realize they were interchangeable.
