I do. I just changed one this morning. I think it is a price thing with me. Try to make them last as long as possible.

That was my thought when I changed mine this morning. Amazing how much better they work but I still gotta get that last possible cut.

I try not to as the cost of the blade doesn't compare to the pain in my shoulder from cutting with a dull blade. I did feel slightly better last week at a quilt class when the LQS owner was trying to cut something and stopped and said Vicky give me your cutter it's always sharp.

Me too. But when I do change it, I am always amazed at how easy it is to cut. :-)
