Has anyone tried the Truecut rotary blade sharpener? Am thinking of buying one but they are rather expensive and I don't want to waste money on yet another gadget. Do they actually work or am I better off just replacing blades as needed.....

I received one as a gift and it is tricky to use. You have to have the blade rolled just right. I prefer the little round ones.

Alot of us don't bother with a sharpener since we found out about Carpet Cutter Replacement Blades from Harbor Freight. You can get a package of 2 blades for $1.99 or less and they are Item #97642 So that makes the blades less then a dollar each. And they fit a 45mm rotary cutter. :)

i have the true cut sharpener and have used it on one of my old blades and it did work I am still using the blade and works fine.. you have to learn how tohold the handle but after that it was a snap to use. I had aproblem the first time I tried to use it.
