Hello Everyone: :) After reading about the Harbor Freight Rotary Blades I popped into the web side supplied by one of the ladies and ordered on line. They ship within 2-7 days. Anxiously awaiting my order. Happy Quilting Everyone.

There must be something wrong with my Olfa 45mm Rotary cutter, as I tried those cheap blades for cutting carpets and they were awful. They cut worse than my dullest blade, so what is my problem???!!

That's what I did, bought 10 packs (20 blades) and it made the shipping worth while. We have a store 35? miles away and by time I get there the supply has been bought up so it is just less hassle to buy online and know I will have them in a couple of days. :D

I think that sometimes you might get an "ornary" blade and when I open my blades from Harbor Freight, I run them around my little blue rotary sharpener. It takes off any little "burr" that might still be there. No problems after that. I have several different brands of rotary cutters and haven't found one that these blades don't fit.

LOL!!! Must have a lot of quilters in your area!!! You can try asking them to set a couple packs aside for you.

We have a new Harbor Freight in our area and I was able to show my husband where it was! LOL! The look on his face was priceless.

Once when I went into the store and asked for them, the guy just "obvioiusly" rolled his eyes (like - another one!!) and told me they were sold out! I just order online. :-)

I have several different sizes of rotary cutters. I will need to get some ordered as well, and try them! I read a post a couple up, about blade sharpeners.......never heard of these. Are they worth while?
