Excellent for raft wood and leather, essential to calibrate before use.
Style: Blade + Housing
I bought this original blade and housing kit to expand the craft and cardboard projects at home. The product is robust and more than meets the expectations of heavy cutting. The best: Cutting quality: In 2 mm chipboard the result is clean. The hard carbide tip resists mechanical wear well and does not dull easily if the materials are clean. Safety: The package includes a very useful rubber protective cap to safely change the blade without touching the edge directly. Points of improvement: It is mandatory to perform the calibration process of the blade on a piece of paper before launching the final project, a step that the manual barely details but that is vital for the lines to coincide perfectly. In addition, it is necessary to monitor the sleep mode of the computer: if the screen is turned off during the process, the cut stops and the material is damaged. A great purchase if you need to add volume and consistency to your projects. Totally recommended within the official Cricut catalog. ... show more

Para materiales gruesos, respetando los límites
Style: Blade + Housing
La utilizo para proyectos con materiales más gruesos, como determinadas maderas delgadas y aglomerados compatibles. Hay que preparar correctamente el material y respetar las limitaciones de espesor de la máquina.

I feel like I can cut anything now
Style: Blade + Housing
The Cricut Knife Blade and Drive Housing is a must-have for anyone looking to take their crafting projects to the next level. It’s incredibly sturdy and well-made, easily handling thicker materials like wood and leather with clean, precise cuts. Setup is straightforward, especially if you’re already familiar with Cricut machines, and it integrates seamlessly with compatible models. What really stands out is the durability—the blade holds its sharpness well even after multiple projects. It does take a bit more time to complete cuts compared to standard blades, but that’s expected given the thicker materials it’s designed for. Overall, it’s a reliable and high-quality tool that expands what you can create with your Cricut. ... show more

Not the deepest cuts.
Style: Blade + Housing
Depends on what you want to use this for. I used this for chipboard and I didn't feel it cut through it super well. I think a laser cutter would be better overall as compared to the cricut for thicker items, but it was cutting accurately and easy to use.
