Do you think that titanium blades are superior to regular cutting blades. Does the extra cost make then worthwhile ?

I was wondering too if the titanium coating on these blades will make that much difference versus the cost? If they still nick?
Will be watching for answers too :D:D:D

I know it makes a difference with needles but haven't tried the blades yet. This is an interesting topic, can't wait to see everyone's thoughts

I used them and they are good and lasted a long long time but I got introduced to the Harbor Freight Carpet blades and the True Cut Sharpener so I don't use them anymore. They are worth the cost if you don't want to use Harbor Freight blades, I've heard some people have problems with them (the Harbor Freight blades).

does the tru cut sharpener really work ?

I haven't used mine yet (bought a load of Harbor Freight blades) but there are other posts on here that swear by it. I haven't seen a bad comment about it yet.

I think the key to the shapeners is to use them often, they are meant to keep an edge sharp, not to take an extremely dull blade and re-hone it :wink: :D:D:D

I've had very good luck with the titanium blades.
