Dulls my spinning blade

Very good quality item. thick and strong The only problem is that it has a small edge that is closest to what you're cutting, which I haven't seen. As I ran the spinning blade around the edge to make fabric squares, it went over that tiny metal ridge instead of fabric and completely smoothed out my blade in one pass. After that, I couldn't even cut a piece of paper. I received a replacement blade and was very careful where I put it. When I started running over the edge of the ruler to cut the fabric, my downward pressure somehow made the blade pop out at the edge and the blade got stuck somewhere as it rotated. I didn't feel it rise and continued to draw the blade across it. Again my blade became useless. In the end it's a complete waste of my time. I have to use scissors when the spinning blade becomes useless, it's timely and leaves messy lines.

Pros
  • Stainless steel ruler with hand guard 18" Cricut cutting ruler makes cutting quick, easy and safe
Cons
  • Some little things
