Tomorrow is my shopping day so must take a trip to Harbor Freights. Will ask DS for directions as he goes there all the time.

I'd think almost any home improvement store would have a carpet cutter, hopefully rotary. Have you tried Lowes or Home Depot or even Sears?

Good find! I also bought the cutter 'just for the blades'.

Just thought I'd let you know..

I went by my local Harbor Freight and checked to see if any blades had come in.. no, no blades.. .but the price on the slot where they go was now $1.99. So they have gone up $.50 already!

I expect there will be more price hikes before they are have them back regularily. oh boo..... Still.. $1.99 for two blades is a whole lot better than $5.99 for 1..

Basically it's a hardware store. I think a lot of their stuff is end of the line stuff. You know, like when ABC company makes a certain drill but then finds a better design. Harbor Freight buys out the last of the old design. All sorts of good finds there. Someone mentioned looking thru it for Christmas gifts--------good place to do so.
