I have tried many brands, but I have to say I love Clover.

I have both fiskars and Olfa. I find the blades, on ebay pretty cheap when I buy bulk.

It is a dark Royal blue in color. I just wish I could find it in the smaller blade size, as the cost of the blades go up with the size of the blade. I use the 45mm.

This is the same Dritz rotary cutter I have, and I did purchase it at Joann's quite sometime ago!

Thanks! :-)

I have always used Fiskars which automatically retract when not in use. I'm sure it has saved me many cut fingers and does a good job.
