Due to longer cut times requiring Bluetooth™ connection, Knife Blade projects are not compatible with iOS and Android devices.

To ensure successful cuts, always turn off Sleep Mode on your computer before starting a cut. If Bluetooth connection is broken (which happens when your computer goes to sleep or if you travel out of range), you run the risk of completely starting over.

Reviews

Rated 5 out of 5 by from I use these all the time! I use these all the time and couldn't live without them. I mostly use them for cutting Cricut chipboard (and also art presentation board) to make sturdy lasting projects. I don't understand the negative reviews, I've never had one break. I make clocks and seasonal trucks, box frames and all sorts of other items. . I've posted a few photos to give some examples.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Knife Blade works well I started by cutting a medium and then a heavy 4-5 oz leather. The blade worked very well. I cut out several key cases with this. I was quite pleased with the accuracy and it was accomplished in only 4 passes. As you will find, leather does make a mess on the Cricut mat, and will need to be cleaned. You may want to look on the internet for hints on dying leather colors. I found that it hardened the leather, and then found better ways to dye the leather, but this is a review of the Knife Blade which I am anxious to find more projects that I want to accomplish with this blade.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from I can't believe these blades have such bad reviews ! I use the knife blades all the time and cut chipboard and art board (like mat board all the time) I'll admit that is doesn't like intricate shapes with the heavy chipboard ( so I keep that for making signs etc) but I have very successfully cut out Cricut's 1.5mm chipboard and the black artboard from my local art shop in intricate shapes. I make very intricate clocks, fancy layered christmas tableaux, red trucks etc I only wish I could add some photos here to show you. I have never had a blade break. I do find the blades expensive but I wait until sale times and stock up plenty. With Access discount and affiliate discount it works out quite reasonable.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from LOVE the knife blade I LOVE the knife blade. I used this to cut out leather luggage tags. I then embossed them with the regular blade after wetting the leather so the embossing stood out. I also added some HTV. They were a hit with my colleagues. For those who have this a bad review, your design cannot be too intricate. I used thick 7oz leather and it cut like a dream! It takes a few passes to cut all the way through but my tags were PERFECT and I made 12 with the same blade without any issues.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great addition for the Maker I wonder if the people who have had trouble with this blade have called Cricut for help. I have cut the heavy chipboard without it breaking. I have had no problems with it and have great cuts with it. I cut several puzzles that have rounded edges and it did a great job. I have no complaints. Call Cricut for help if you have a problem, they will take care of you.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Works great I have used the knife blade to cut 1/16 and 1/32 basswood with no problems. I did notice they have the 1/32th wood cut 18 passes which is more than the 1/16 and is way too high. Let it cut 6-7 times then cancel the cutting.
