I have had good luck with Titanium blades from Walmart. I wish they came in more sizes.

I purchased the ones off of EBAY put couldn't get them to cut through more than 2 layer of fabric at a time . Not worth the aggravation of having to recut in spots blades didn't go through.

When a link is not clickable, you have to cut and paste it into your browser.

when you go into harbor freight, go to the 1st right hand aisle. now not the merchandise on the wall but on your left, the 1st aisle. they should be on a rack there. these are use by carpet layers. so maybe if you asked where the blades for carpet knives were they could direct you. good luck. and i have not had any bad experiences w/the blades cutting up my mat. and i've cut thru several layers of fabric just fine.

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.

Just was wondering how these come packaged? Are they in the little plastic case like other blades? 5 to a container, or 10?

They come in the regular yellow cases. That is another reason that I prefer these to the HF ones. HF come in just the plastic packaging. I like having the yellow case to dispose of the old ones.
