Minnesota Harbor Freight is out of blades. They are on back order. I did pick up a magnetic bowl while I was there. Thanks for the tip.

Your welcome :)

I get all my tool ideas from my husband's shop. I go in there and see all the goodies he has and I figure out how I can use it in my sewing room. :)

In my area they are in the Sunday newspaper magazine section, also in the coupons section and AARP publications and just abiout anything I run across. I am not sure what magazines carry them, but you could write to the store web site and ask where you can find them. I had about 8 of them laying around = and took 2 with me before I realized I needed one for each purchase. the clerk was very helpful and rang up 2 sales. One in which I got the 20% off on one set - the other was for 3 and I got the total off the three blades. It would depend on the store and their policies or the cashier.

I mentioned to her that I had never seen another store do such a blitz of coupons and she agreed with me. Between the 2 of us here we have gotten about 8 flashlights. We give them to people we think would like to have one.

In my area there is always more of those coupons every time I open mail.

They have a store locator link. I googled it. They have a store right here in Akron, Ohio. I noticed shipping is like 6.49 and the blades are only 1.49. Just locate a store near you and go buy them.

Some of these coupons may not be at all stores. Our store advertises "a Huge Sale for 8/27 - 8/28" and nothing about coupons. By the way, I cleaned out their supply of blades. I picked up 10 packs and left nada on the shelf. I don't even feel guilty. That's bad!!

For the record, everything I saw in that store is "Made in China" including these blades. I broke my own rules as I made an effort to look for USA made products.

2 to a package and only $1.45 WOOHOO. I bought 10 packages before they discover quilters are using them and raise the price. They are super sharp. think they are made sharper as carpet is tough. Cut like going through butter.

Girl in store said they will have to limit how many a person can buy at a time. They are dangerous. I looked at her and "I am 61 years old I know how to use a blade and one will cut someone just as well at 20."

Always trying to take our bonuses away lol.


When I describe my rotary cutter to anyone (non-quilter) I tell them that it's a rolling scalpel. : = )

Or a razor sharp pizza cutter.

What will the Harbor Freight blades do to our cutting mats if they are sharper? Will we have to replace them sooner?
