Review on πŸ”ͺ Premium German Carbide Craft Blades - Bulk Pack of 20: 15 Standard & 5 Deep Point Blades by Kim Sanchez

Revainrating 5 out of 5

They work very well. Just know what you are buying.

Works very well. For those who don't know, the blade is under a rubber cap so you don't stab yourself when you pick it up. These blades are NOT the same as those currently sold by Cricut; If you read the description carefully you will see that these blades are made of CEMENT CARBIDE while the Cricut blades are made of GERMAN CARBIDE. Cricut blades were once made from the same carbide, but people have complained that they wear out too quickly. When they launched the Explore, they switched to German carbide blades. German carbide blades are very durable, and their sharpness lasts longer and is therefore more expensive. What does it all mean? Well if you are looking for the exact same blades that Cricut currently sells but at a lower price this seller has them and they work really well and last a long time. Bridge cutters are the only blades I've used since 2017 and I've had multiple Cricut machines since 2010. I decided to try these blades just to see how long they actually stay sharp. I mainly cut paper with Cricut Air and Maker. Paper does not wear out blades as quickly as vinyl and other materials. For less than $10.00, I think it's worth a try.
