I got some of the blades and I didn't think they were very sharp. Someone said to clean the blades really good, that didn't seem to help.

I discovered that I can just toss the flat flower head pins at the bowl and they line up around the edge flower head up. I just make sure that the bowl does not get close to my computerized sewing machine.

Darn it, my yellow headed pins tend to head to the bottom so that the pointy side is up. Do love the fact you can throw pins at it and it will catch them.

I use the magnetic bowls all the time, I have even taken one to work for my paper clips, and such! I use harbor freight blades all the time, no issues.
