My rotary cutter has a notch on one side. The ones I've seen at Harbor Freight are round with no notch. So I can't use them. I wait for Joann's 40% off coupon and buy them there.[/quote]
The notch doesn't really do anything I have had blades like that it just the manufacturer who does that...Doesn't affect the cutter in any way...

I got 2 packages yesterday at 1.49 each. I took my cutter with me in case I needed a visual aid :) and the guy was hilarious. "What's that? What do you do with it?" etc. Opened a bag of shop rags so I could show him how it cuts fabric!! He was fascinated. And cute... and no ring...
Moving on, I opened the first package yesterday and both blades were nasty dull. I haven't opened the second yet. I have heard from others that they can be hit/miss, so I'll try the second package later this evening, and cross my fingers. Even if it takes a couple of packages to get a good blade, you still can't beat the price. Now, when I've gotten enough bad packages to pay for a Fiskar's blade, we'll have to revisit...
