    I heard that some people were using them and taking them back to the store, so maybe some of us got some bad ones.

    Wow, I really like them. They seem to last a long time.
    I even "sharpened" one and used it awhile longer.

    They aren't lasting very long for me at all and I got one (so far) that skipped right out of the package. I won't be buying any more.

    I have been using the same blade for alot of cutting...even cutting batting yesterday. I used it today on denim since I plan to change it out and I'm still not having a problem.

    I think I remember from another thread that the person had to flip the blade over and then it was fine.

    I had the same experience. I also won't be buying them again.

    I do like mine. I agree that they don't hold their sharpness as long, but they are WAY cheaper. I'll change the blade more often to save that much money :)
