Questions & Answers

This should work with the clover yarn cutter pendent, right?

This seems not to be the case. In an advertisement I saw on line, it indicated this Clover product does not have interchangeable blades. One of these items has been on my wish list for quite some time. My understanding is that I should have a pair of scissors in my knitting bag instead of the cutter pendant!

What would happen if I used this to ?

The only fabrics I cut are 100 percent cotton fabrics, and I use a small 18mm blade to cut While the blades are very sharp, it is a very small blade, making it prone to slipping on the silky fabric of the acetate. One of the larger rotary cutter blades might be better suited to the task. As far as cutting plastic acetate goes, I have no idea how it would work. If I had to guess, it might go through plastic or vinyl fabric, but again a larger rotary blade might be better suited for the task.

Can you tell me how big the hex in the center is?

I'm sorry, but the item was purchased as a gift and I have no idea what it contains

Selected User Reviews For OLFA 9463 RB18-2 18mm Rotary Blades, 2-Pack

This blade was designed for cutting very precise material or intricate designs with lots of inside cuts and rounded edges

5/5

It is very sharp, perfect for cutting most things. When I first learned to sew with my mother, I used one of these rotary cutters. I thought they had more uses than just sewing. They could be used for simple hair cuts, such as placing a mat under someone's hair for a very quick and straight These smaller blades could also be used to carve pumpkins or create small round details for crafts, or even to cut a pizza if you are in a pinch and do not have a $2 pizza cutter, knife, or just something rigid to cut your pie out of. In any case these blades are very sharp and last quite a while, though I have not sharpened one yet. However, I like the size and maneuverability of these 18 mm blades over the larger sizes, especially when they need to create some short precise cuts.

Replace your blades with these high-quality replacements

5/5

Replacement blades from OLFA are of great quality (they are super sharp, In the past year, I have cut hundreds of pieces of fabric and felt with these and I have never needed to cut more than one blade at a time. Additionally, I enjoy that there is a backup and a spare, so even if one runs out, you can still get one from the store right away. These blades are a little more expensive than other brands, but the quality is well worth the price.
I have been using OLFA blades for quite a while. Their quality is excellent, and their customer service is excellent.

With my Fiskars, it works great

5/5

Due to the fact that it was the only 18 mm blade I could find for my Fiskars, I purchased it along with the Olfa 18 mm small rotary cutter. Besides fitting well, it cuts well as well. Using the Olfa now feels more comfortable, as it has a bit more blade exposure on the side, and I don't have to hold it at an uncomfortably steep These smaller rotary cutters are my favorite for all my rotary cutting needs. Since my work consists of mostly broadcloth and cotton, this small blade is not only ideal for cutting up to six layers at once, but will also allow me to reach tight corners with ease. This product has been cited as being great for quilting by other reviews. Since I don't quilt, I use it mostly to cut out dresses, pants, and other clothes for my twin 5 year old daughters. By using this tool and blades, I have completely replaced my scissors for cutting out.

This is a gift for someone you know

5/5

In the days immediately following the virus outage, I ordered these for my friend since she was unable to get to the fabric shop to buy Making miniature quilts is one of her favorite things to do with them.

I'm eager to see how they turn out

4/5

In my 18mm cutter, I have not yet used these blades, but I am sure they will work fine. I purchased the 18mm cutter and blades so that I could try making a no-sew blanket. As long as I have a blade this size, I will be able to get into tight areas.

The settings can be changed easily

5/5

In case you're buying the Olfa rotary cutting tool, you ought to keep spare blades. You should keep spare bits for your new drill just like that.

The blades look good, too

5/5

Despite my disapproval with the Olaf blades, I do like them. My masks last longer than those of other brands, and I go through them a lot based on the fact that I am making them every day, all day long.

There is nothing better than an Olfa Is there anything you can tell me about Olfa rotary cutter replacement blades? It is a good brand, but they do not make cutters like this There is trash in China

5/5

get the job done (which, in this case, is to make smooth cuts on curved stuff- Cutting quilt and applique pieces that might not be straight lines is possible with this cutter). Based on the two-factor model It's a plus that they come in a pack of five because I'm planning to cut a number of flower appliques from Ultrasuede. I have no idea how long the blades would last.
