I've become lax with my rotary cutter the last few days--and then thought it was okay because the blades only been in there a few years. Dull, dull, dull. I did go out and finally buy a replacement blade this morning. I was officially over snipping tiny threads that the blade missed. Now, after your story, I'll be extra careful. (I'm actually kind of scared to use the new blade.) I guess I should have been careful with the dull blade, too, right? Thanks for the (graphic) reminder.
