What seller is good to buy from on this 60 degree blade for my cricut? How much does it cost? I am thinking of buying on to make deeper cuts when making the Word books. Any information on this is appreciated. Thanks...

Go on e-bay and type in 60 degree roland blade. It won't be in the craft section so just keep it in the general section. I bought mine from DESAY USA in Ontario, Ca via e-bay. I can't remember what I paid but I got 5 blades and they were cheap. They work great, I prefer them over the 45 degree blade for regular cutting.

I purchased from the same people and had them sent downunder!! I got 5 of 60's and 5 of 40's and even with postage was less than buying 4 new blades here!

They give quick service and nice people to deal with. I do believe they also have the blade to do engraving with your cricut but I havent bought that yet. :D

Ooooh what's this, yet another feature on the cricut....engraving tell me more tell me more lol

I'm picking up my blades today, from a seller that is a bit closer than the states, think it was $24 for 6 blades, and you can pick how many of each you want, so I've got 4 normal and 2 deep cut, will be picking them up from the post office this morning, will let you know if they are any good.

Yes the Cricut will engrave there is a video on UTube

Anywhere that sells Roland blades are okay for the Cricut.

Okies, got my nifty little storage box of blades from ebay seller y2store this morning, got 4 normal and 2 deep cut blades for $23 Australian including postage :) Blade works perfectly, just tried it on a very delicate paper and it cut without any hassle, perfect, neat, crisp cutting :lol: So happy, love bargains :) I got 6 blades for cheaper than the cost of 2 branded blades in the LSS woohoooooo

Another great place I found for Roland 46 and 60 degree blades on ebay is:
user name: seikitech
Store: SeikiTech Sign Making

I bought my 60 degree blades @ 10 for $24.99 US, and they are still listed. Excellent communication, and the shipping was great to Canada. They aswered any questions I had before buying, now they are on my favorite seller list!
These blades do cut very nice for me......

I no longer pay $10.00 or more for 2 from anywhere else.

I can engrave with this thing??? How awesome is that? I was unaware. Can someone explain the difference between the 45 and 60? Which blade is made for engraving? This is all very new to me. I'm ridiculously excited. :)

Hi there no there is another blade for engraving :D just researching it now.
The dif between 45 and 60 is just that 15 degree so the 60 cuts into thicker stock more easily.
