Has anyone used a HF blade for 2 years?

I looked into a professional sharpener, and I will just keep buying blades... :lol:
i have used several different brands of blade over the years. while i would never say anything against the Olfa brand - because they are just fine in my opinion - they are by no stretch of the imagination superior to anything else on the market. they are merely more expensive.
I have found only one brand that really does not hold up well at all...and another that is so over priced, I refused to buy the cutter...as for olfa being better or not, I just find that I can make them last longer than the others I have used...especially because I cut a lot of ultrasuede and it really can dull a blade quick...
So you mind if I ask what you use the ultrasuede for? Can a quilt be make out of it? We have a mill here with monthly sales where I can get great prices on ultrasuede, but I don't know what to do with it!
