We're on our way. I'll post if or when I find them. Thanks again for all the help.

H.F. carpet cutter blades fit all 45mm rotary cutters.

Well, we just got back, but with no blades. We did find them; however, the price was $4.49, not $1.49. I believe they fit they smallest rotary cutter, which I hardly use. I use the medium one & large one all the time. So, we went to Joann's; the blades were 40% off, plus I had the 10% off everything coupon. so, not too bad a deal. Maybe next time I visit my DD in the Houston area, I'll check out their HF.

Holy macaroni! I wonder if they got wise to us and raised the prices!

Every time I have been in Harbor Freight stores, they have had only one size blade. It fits the cutter someone showed in a previous post. You might look up the store on line and phone and ask them about the size and also the correct price. I suspect that might be a pricing error.


Originally they were $1.49 per package of 2. The price went to up $1.99 per package. Then they put them on sale for a period of time for $1.49. If you find them it would pay you to buy as many packages as you can. I have a good stock of them that I will be glad to share with anyone who does not have a H.F. store in their area.

I have a HF store in my area and purchased 12 packs when I was there! I still have several packs of 5 each I got 50% off at Joann's, so it will be a while before I get to them, so if any of you want, I will also be willing to trade if you want to PM me. Our HF seems to have them most of the time-guess there aren't many quilters in this area that have caught on to it yet!!

They were on sale Sat. when I went to Harbor Freight. I just put one in my cutter and it dosn't seem to be as sharp as my regular ones. I hope some of them are better!

Of all the blades I have bought and used, I never found one bad blade. Be sure your mat is clean and in good condition. It will help extend the life of your blades.

Not crazy about them. I bought 3-2 packs, they skipped and were not good at all. Turned my mat over and that help some but I will stick to the original blades from now on. :thumbdown:

If you say turning the mat over helped some, that would be a clue that the mad is not in good condition or not clean. YOu can still see the lines and the mat can be clogged with lint and fuzz. Get a scrubber and go over it really good to dig out the embedded threads.
