Reasonably Prices Rotary Blades
 
With the rising cost of fabrics, not to mention the time and effort, I have decided that it is "penny wise and pound foolish" to become frustrated with dull rotary blades and machine needles. When I start a new project I start with a fresh blade and needle.

I just wanted to post this because I have had such a good experience with them.
$12.99 for 10 blades with FREE shipping.

No affiliation with this seller, other than just being a very pleased customer several times. I figure with the prices of fabrics, I owe it to myself and my outcome to invest a little more and not get so frustrated in the process.

Thanks for the tip I've been using my michaels 50% off coupon to buy mine this with free shipping is a better deal.

Have never been able to find the blades down here. But half the people that work there don't know what you're talking about. I even took my rotary cutter with me. They thought it was a micro mini saw blade and just said they were out after I showe it to them.

The blades from Harbor freight will ruin your cutting mat. Ask me how I know this? Lol

The blades from Harbor Freight have not ruined my cutting mat. Sometimes I find a bad one but usually they are good. They are called carpet cutter blades and are used in a knife (I think) to lay carpet and trim it.

I agree, I have no issues with them. When a blade get dull, I use it for gift wrapping, paper cutting. Can't beat the price. I am always finding something at HF.

I have never been able to find the HF blades. I have visited HF when ever we travel and have seen one. And I have tried to order them on-line and have yet to have a backorder shipped. I decided that I would really prefer to be able to get them here, rather than hoping that this MIGHT be the time that HF actually comes through. To each his own I guess.
