Chris KChris K: This is the second time I have ordered these blades so that in itself is testimony of how great they are.
They last forever! I have used one blade for over a year for cutting vinyl with my Cricut and one for cutting cardstock. So I was down to one blade. I had to order to make sure I didn't run out!
You will love these blades!! The shipping, not so much. As you can see, the container that the blades come in is smashed. It was sent in a bubble wrapped envelope which must have got stepped on in transit. They need to have them in a small box inside the bubble envelope.
Other than shipping, buy to have on hand!!

leone4130: I program CNC machines and can respect a good carbide. This is worth the money as it will last a lot longer than those cheap steel ones. If you've ever had a blade go dull in the middle of a large or intricate project, then you can appreciate the longevity of these blades. You'll get more use out of these than a 50 pack of cheapo blades, trust me. Carbide for the win. Steel will bend, carbide does not, now imagine that on a microscopic level for a super sharp blade. And yes they are very sharp, they will go through your finger and you won't feel a thing....for about 10 seconds.

CryptoPox: Circut sucks as a company so because I bought their overpriced machine, I do all I can to not buy anything else from them. These blades are excellent, I bought a 3 pack months ago and I'm still using the same blade after all this time. It cuts perfectly every time and never fails me. If you cut a lot of vinyl (I recommend Oracal brand), try using the "Washi Tape" setting on your machine. That's the one I always use and it works great every single time. I absolutely recommend these blades if you're looking for an alternative to Cricut's overpriced, mediocre ones.

D Clark: These are terrific blades. No issues. Those who experienced torn cardstock probably were using a mat that was not as grippy as is needed. I too experienced torn cardstock, but when I switched to a new mat (yes, I could have just cleaned the one I was using), the cuts were perfect. If the cardstock is not adhered properly to the mat, any blade will tear the cardstock. I have already ordered more of these blades.

Amy De La Rosa: I have a Cricut Maker and these blades are a great substitution for the Cricut brand fine point blades. They work just as well and the price is much more affordable. When doing intricate cuts, I like using a very sharp blade and using these makes that far more cost feasible and the quality is comparable. This is my go to Cricut Maker blade.

Starthru: I bought these to use in my Cricut Explore Air. The regular blades that come with the device wear out quickly, and I had gone through 3 of them since I got it in June. Cricut also markets a Carbide blade on both regular and deep cut versions, but they are expensive. When I saw this package for roughly the cost of a single carbide blade direct from Cricut, I figured it was worth a shot. I am THRILLED with my COMBO 45/60 -6 Standard Deep Cut Replacement Blades for Craft Cutting Machines, Bridge, Cricut, Roland. I could immediately see an improvement in the crispness and accuracy of the cuts even over a brand new regular blade from Cricut. Even with fine scroll-like designs that were shrunk to less than half their original size they cuts were clean with no dragging and no skipped spots. Even fancy materials like glitter vinyl are accurately cut and the blade seems to REALLY last a long time without dulling. I will be using these blades as my go-to from now on!

Ann: Well.... I have just now tried it out and am well impressed! Ive a Cricut Explore and the blade, well used admittedly, was tearing at the copy paper I was trying to cut. Time to change the blade! I looked at these before and wondered being as they were not the 'real Cricut blades so was somewhat apprehensive, paying out for something I wasnt sure about. Ive not a lot of money but thought I would risk it.
So, ok, on putting one of these blades into the cricut housing I thought ooops, thats a snug fit. Unlike the Cricut blades that slot into the housing easily I had to very slightly push this one in. With that in mind I wasnt at all sure it would work. Curiosity got the better of me and just done what ive been trying to do with the old cricut blade. I was so impressed with the smart clean cut, no tearing of the paper, that here I am writing this. Well credit due and so ive written. Now to see how long they last.... :)

Kara V.: Does not cut through 10 mil stencil hardly at all or 7 mil stencil very cleanly. Not even close to the Cricut deep cut blades, which have worked awesome at cutting through both these stencil blanks. I tried all 6 blades and had no luck, even when I tried cutting at the highest pressure and 5 cuts. The cricut blades cut through at the highest pressure with 2 cuts beautifully (30+ stencils made). I was hoping these would work just as well being they are much cheaper, but unfortunately I just wasted my money as I can't use them at all. Seller tried to be helpful, but the product just isn't equal. Maybe they would work ok with paper and other materials, but avoid them if you are trying to cut out clean stencils on 7 mil or 10 mil Mylar blanks. They are a little shorter than the Cricut blades which is likely the problem. If you say they are replacement blades, then I think they should be equal to the original blades. The seller did give me a refund and tried to be as helpful as possible in responding to me, so I updated the stars from 1 to 4

A. VossA. Voss: This was recommended to me by another Cricut user. I ordered the 3 pack to try. I will definitely be reordering these. Very economical and works perfectly. I use them in my Cricut Maker 3. See pic attached to this review for visual comparison.
