don't forget to pick up a magnetic dish for your pins while you're there. price is about $3 and its metal. they also have inexpensive magnetic pickups.

I use them in my fiskars all the time. They are cheap enough to change if they don't cut well.

Harbor Freight blades? I just went to the Harbor Freight website and can't find rotary blades. Do they call them something else. It sounds like they are cheaper, and that is what I like!

Look for them as "carpet cutter blades" at Harbor Freight

When I bought my Martelli cutter I was told the blade would last one year and the same for the replacement blades.

I'm still on my original blade 4 years later but don't use it all the time as I am a 'switch hitter' and bought the left handed version of Martelli because that is my dominate hand.

Now that I have the rotating rotary mat I will probably use the Martelli more often.
