Thank -you so much for this post! I will admit to being tardy when it comes to changing my blade. This will allow me to change my blades when I really should.
As much as I hate dull blades, I keep telling myself just one more project and I will change the blade.

Wished I knew about that before I bought my expensive blade shapener.

I'm sure glad you told us about your find. My husband goes there often, will have to tag along to get me some replacement blades.

Thanks a million for the info :thumbup:

has anyone tried the cutter that these blades are used for ?i was thinking that it might be good to use for chenille cutting but there is nothing under wheel to stop it from cutting bottom layer...any ideas what we ( quilters ) can use that cutter for ?

Thank you everyone for adding info for me. Wow these are taking off fast, as I knew they would.

I have cut out a quilt and it has not damaged my mat at all. They are just smoother cutting.

I am going out shopping later and will check a couple of other places to buy these. They must sell elsewhere also.

Hope everyone can find them that wants them and all the bo come in quickly.

I see no difference. The stock blades that are for my Fiskar's cut my mat just like these do. But I am not worried, I paid $20.00 for my mat at a school supply store. I think it's just as good as those expensive ones.

I placed an order online before I realized we have a store locally. When I called the store, they have 10 in stock at the same price as online. I tried to cancel the online order and they told me they couldn't do that and I had to call back after 3 PM local time. I will insist that they cancel as they want $7 shipping, when I can just pick it up here. And I just needed some new ones as I dulled the one I used for a while.

I bought two 60" cutters recently as I stupidly thought that they would fit my 45" cutter. I don't know what I was thinking. I bought them at 40% off at JoAnn's. Send me a PM if you want them. I will send them to you via USPS for what I paid for them.
