Excellent product, will take many re-sharpening May 12, 2011
By Ali Julia
I had my Olfa rotary blade for over 10 years. I use it practically every week, so it gets a lot of work.
I use my rotary cutter for quilting fabric, cutting photographic paper, cutting regular paper. My blades do a lot of work!
I use a rotary blade sharpener to prolong the life of each blade for a long time. I have re-sharpened each blade at least 10 times each. I see improved cutting (for example, on fabric you stop getting a few threads that did not get cut on the first stroke).
These blades are very high quality, they take many re-sharpening and continue to work as new!
For most part of the 10 years I have re-sharpened my Olfe rotary blade, I used a rotary blade sharperner Rotary Blade Sharpener- For 45mm Blades
To sharpen the blade, you to disassemble the rotary cutter, which has a number of pieces including the blade. Then you place the the blade between two round circles the sharpener. Each side facing the blade has sand paper, that polishes out the nicks in the blade. You sharpen the blade by rotating the two pieces of the sharper against each other. After the sharpening you have to move the blade back to the rotary cutter, and then reassemble the rotary cutter correctly (one has to remember how pieces fit together exactly).
Recently I discovered a sharpener that works without having to remove the blade from the cutter. It works by using the same motion as you cut, by moving the cutter in the sharpener itself. Not having to remove the blade from the sharpener is a *huge* advantage. It is faster, less chance of cutting yourself, and no chance of assembling the rotary cutter the wrong way (been there, done that). It is called "TrueCut"TrueCut Rotary Blade Sharpener
Both rotary cutters work well and prolong the life your blades, and thus save you money.
So I highly recommend this blade refill and its usage with the blade sharpener.

Great price for 5 blades Dec 10, 2009
By Judy G
The olfa rotary blade refill 45mm-5 pack is great to have on hand when my blade gets dull, nicked or damaged. The 45mm is the middle size cutter that I can handle easily through many fabric thicknesses. The notched opening in center holds blades well.

"Books are my addiction!"
Couldn't quilt without these little gems!
So much easier and faster than using scissors and really saves my hands from aching.
I highly recommend them if you quilt
