    Seems we have to keep repeating....
    and every thread about these blades gives information

    45mm blades
    listed as: carpet cutter blades

    Store clerks will not know anything about rotary cutter blades.

    You can go to Harbor Freight and look up your state and get a list of store locations. Pretty easy!

    My local HF told me that they sell in quantity to carpet stores. Also, we've been paying $1.49 per pkg. and someone here said earlier that she paid $1.99. Sounds like they're raising prices on us.

    Another thing, when they were out, they let he put a hold on a few packs from their next order.

    I got my (5) pack of Original Olfa 60 size from Ebay last week for under $16.00 total including the shipping to me.

    It was a super deal considering the package amount/quality in comparison to the other dealers prices.

    You should check with them. I did the same, but, after not hearing anything I contacted them, and was told that orders must be at least $10. They cancelled my order and I reordered 10 packs and have plenty to last for a good long time
    I had a month or 2 wait but they all arrived. 15 x $1.99 is way over the $10 minimum you cite.

    Just google Harbor Freight and put carpet cutter - they only come in one size
    Need a $10 minimum order, before adding s/h

    that might be because they're Carpet cutters, not rotary cutters

    I bought one of those things that sharpens your blades and it works great!

    I had the same problem with the first package I opened...I found I had put both blades in the rotary cutter. They come as a two pack, so double check that you only have one in the cutter.

    Thanks for the hint, Shirley. I checked and I only have one blade in there. Complete mystery to me, unless it's because it's an Olfa cutter. I just read here that they don't work with Olfa. Anyone else using an Olfa with them?

    I have found the corporate email addresses for Wal-Mart. If we contact them in numbers, they may listen. If not, they will be losing a lot of good customers. It looks as if you have to contact the regional VP for the area of the country you live in. Lets do this!!

    If you would like a copy of the list, please PM me and I will send it to you.
