    NO they do not cut the mats. It doesn't even leave a mark. They cut like a hot knife through butter.

    My HFT doesn't have the correct blades. What types of blades did you say they were and how much were they? The ones I saw today were 9.99 and up and had little funny edges on them.
    Maybe I am looking at the wrong blades.[/quote]

    Yup you are looking at the wrong thing. On page 2 or so is a picture of the package. Hope this helps.

Olfa blades that have been used for a while, have to recut and use lots of pressure. I'll be keeping them to cut paper or household use.
    That's too bad, because mine cuts so smoothly. I know someone who put 2 blades into the cutter and didn't realize it .. and they wouldn't but nice. Maybe you could check to see if you accidentally did that?

    Went to 2 stores in the west area of Phoenix, they didn't have and knew nothing about them. We looked high and low.

    Does Harbor Freight sell online?
    I glanced at the Internet and saw
    where I could find a store (quite a
    few miles away) but no online sales.
    Might have missed it.
    Should anyone have such an address,
    please let me and the rest of us know.
