Default 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.

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.
