- INTRICATE & ACCURATE CUTTING - Provides detailed and precise cutting of a variety of materials including cotton, wool, paper, vinyl, leather, and more. Also fits our Pinking Blade (PIB45-1), Scallop/Peak Blade (SCB45-1), and Wave Blade (WAB45-1).
- THE OLFA STANDARD - As the inventor of the Rotary Cutter in 1979, OLFA has maintained a standard of cutting excellence for our quality and durability. Pairing OLFA brand rotary cutter, blades and cutting mats together will provide optimal results.

5.0 out of 5 stars Sharp blade and sturdy body.
Verified PurchaseIt's a good purchase, received the blade today and tested on some cotton fabrics with folded in 8 layers and it did cut the fabric smoothly. You do need to put little pressure and hold the blade steady and in one stroke; 'voila'. Makes my job easier. Now, let's see how long the blade's sharpness lasts. Hope it goes a long way.
