    i know you can use just about any flat blade in just about any cutter of the right size. I'm sure someone else will correct me if i'm wrong (at least i hope so) but i think you need a special cutter to start with to use a pinking blade. you will probably be able to use any brand, though, when it's time to replace the blade.

    I have a fiskers rotary cutter as well as an Olfa. I don't buy fiskers or Olfa blades, I go with the generic ones and have no problem interchanging one company's blades on another company's cutter. If the pinking blade is 45mm it will work on your fiskers cutter. :)
