I ordered these blades you suggested on the day your comment came out and I should receive them today. I'll just change over to my 45mm rotary cutter and see how that works out for me. As I'm getting older, using a small rotary cutter may just be what I need.

I sure hope everyone is as pleased as I am with the blades.
Remember that an old mat is as bad as a dull blade.
Whatever size cutter you use, always use a safety device when cutting. I doesn't matter how careful you are, if a cut can happen it will.

The video is worth the watch whether you use the Clover 18m rotary cutter or if you use another brand or size. Short, about 10 minutes, and full of little tips for safe and effective care of a rotary cutter and blades.

That's funny cause I checked the day t his article came out and I could only find the 45mm in the titanium that she mentioned. The 60mm may have been titanium but not the same brand and that's what I thought was important. Will check again though. Thanks.

I would order any blades at a great price and if the first one out of the package did not cut clean I would return them. That's why I like Amazon, easy returns with no hassle. I dug out my 18 mm rotary cutter I haven't used in years. I cut out pieces for a few blocks and I am liking the small size for cutting layers of fabric.
