How often should I change my cutting blade on my rotary cutter?

How often you change your blade depends on how you treat it. If you hit the side of your ruler or run over a pin, you will create a dead spot in the blade. It will need to be replaced.

Cleaning and oiling your blade on a regular basis will give you a lot longer life. After every project you finish, pull your rotary cutter apart and wipe the build up of lint away. Put a few dabs of machine oil on a soft cloth and wipe blade. Reassemble your cutter.
