    hi all,

    just rummaging thru all my old brochures etc to make space for the new pc, having a big clearout! anyway, just noticed on a promo leaflet from print1, they’re selling cutter blades branded as ‘renown’, i normally pay about £12 a blad at present, and when cutting lots of reflective, can wreck one in a few weeks, these are about a fiver each if you buy a pack of five,

    does anyone have any experience of these blades? any good or pants?

    cheers.
    Hugh

    We tried the pattern blades, but still find the originals last longer , and are better value,
    lynn has an original graphtec blade in her plotter, cuts perfect after miles and miles, including reflective,

    it refuses to die

    thanks guys, i’ve been told about some that are very good on price and last a fair while, i’ve just bough them from a well known auction site, might well be rubbish but i’ll give em a go, at 5 for a tenner it’s worth a try, paid for in one job!!
