Bonnie in Ok Posted April 2, 2010 Report Share Posted April 2, 2010 I was wondering if anyone sharpens their own rotary cutter blades and what have they found works best? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bonnie Posted April 2, 2010 Report Share Posted April 2, 2010 I use to, but found that they didn't last even through one quilt's cutting and I would have to stop and do it again and again. I decided it was cheaper to buy blades on sale with coupons at JoAnn's or to get the blades from Hancock's of Paducah...in the cat they have an off brand, and I found those to be even sharper than name brand ones.

Bonnie in Ok Posted April 2, 2010 Author Report Share Posted April 2, 2010 Thanks Bonnie ( feel like I am writting to myself) don't meet many Bonnies these days. I was just wondering because I ran over a pin with a brand new blade that was hiding under the material and now there is a nick in the blade. I try not to do that. I usually buy new ones but thought I would chech to see if there was a good alternative. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bonnie Posted April 2, 2010 Report Share Posted April 2, 2010 WOOOO.....never could get nicks out...those are definitely throw aways. And I know what you mean...I didn't meet another "ME" till I was about 16 and then again till I was 30...and now there are 6-7 of us here on the forum.:P:P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
