Frequently Asked Questions
Why buy blades five at a time?
Because blades die mid-project — the dull edge announces itself halfway through a cutting session, and the quilter without a spare either pushes a dangerous blade or stops. The 5-pack is per-blade cheaper and means the spare always exists.
What actually kills a blade?
Pins first, mat second, fabric last — one pin strike nicks an edge permanently, a worn mat abrades it, and cotton alone takes months. Pin-free cutting habits double blade life.
The real safety rule?
Sharp is safe — dull blades demand pressure, and pressure is what slips. Changing at the first skipped thread is the safety practice, not a cost.
Standard 5-pack or Titanium 3-pack?
Volume decides — typical home cutting runs happily on standards; daily production cutting pencils out on titanium's extended edge. Same cutter takes both.
Fit check?
Standard 45mm format — the QS Deluxe natively, and most major-brand 45mm cutters; verify proprietary designs before ordering.
