Yakamoz CB09 CB09U Graphtec Blade Holder Base with 15pcs Graphtec Blade Vinyl Cutter Plotter Cutting Blades 30/45/60 Degree

I love this so much! I use silhouette portraits, cameo 3 and cameo 4 's in my business. I adjusted the blade to the right depth and it performed amazingly. It's super sharp so be careful and it is a very tight fit.I wish I had bought these earlier as my cut lines have been perfect and such great value where you get multiple blades.

Silhouette use a similar business strategy to the printer manufacturers: sell the main unit fairly cheaply and then charge an arm and a leg for essential replacement parts. After increasingly resenting paying high prices over and over for new Silhouette blades I came across this excellently thought-out and made package. Having the three different angles of cutter is handy, but the main attraction is price: 15 blades plus holder for around the price of one official Silhouette blade unit. You need to be a bit more proactive in doing assembly and setting the blade height, but it's just common sense really. The blades are nice and sharp too. Thoroughly recommended for anyone who uses their Cameo or Portrait regularly.

Great for cutting my designs and so far one blade has lasted over a month. Would highly recommend.

I ordered 3x sets of this blade holder and blades. First time I ordered one. When I got it and tested it I went and ordered 2 sets more. I cut mylar sheets with this. Blades are great. I have in my arsenal now 45 blades and 3 blade holders which I am using for different things. This blade holder and blades are worth it. I would like, that this seller would also sell just different blades, but what the hell. This is cheap compared to the cameo 3 automatic blade so I am not complaining.Don't think about if you wanna buy. I know you wanna, and just do it. :)

I use it with Graphtec Ce Lite 50 as replacement for my PM BS 001 blade which went staircase blunt after cutting of just ten A4 pages thin printable glossy vinyl.The measurements given for this blade here are useless and wrong.What matters for us is the body thickness and the length from The Ring to the cutting blade end.The body thickness is the same 138mm.The lenght from the sitting ring to the blade end is the same 32mm.The ring is 16.6mm in diameter and that is 1mm bigger than my 15.6mm Graphtec. For that reason the Yakamoz sits 3 mm higher on top of the blade holder and not inside of it, 3 mm lower where the Graphtec blade sits.Suprisingly, it works. Perhaps the cutter measures push down forse regardless of where the blade is. The difference in length affects the Force Needed if any!Not all angle/color blades cut equaly well my vinyl but the pointier Blue are good enough and have the same angle as my Graphtec blade.

Got this Blade holder with a bit of trepidation - but was easy to set up and up till now , has cut like a dream! going to get another for just paper too - I wanted to get extra blades with it too from this seller but didn't get an answer to my query about them and bought from elsewhere.

I purchased this blade holder with additional blades for both my Silhouette Cameo and Curio. I tested the 60-degree blade on a very thin paper, which usually causes problems while cutting intricate elements. With the regular Silhouette rachet blade the corners are not sharp enough, because while cutting, the paper starts to roll. With Graphtec blades the results are much better - I expect the same improvement with vinyl, but I haven't checked it yet. In general it was a very good purchase - excellent value for this price.

Had to return, didn't fit into either collar blue or black on my cameo 4, was unable to close collar because the rim that goes around the blade holder was to thick to go into slot in collar

There are lots of reviews of using this with older Cameo units, but wanted to report this works well with Cameo 4. You need to use the adapters that came with the unit, this holder will fit into the blue or black holder. The black one will automatically be detected as a cut blade, while the blue you'll likely have to change it from sketch.My only complaint is that the different blades are labeled as to what their angles are. You can look and judge for yourself of course, but it would have been nice for it to have been indicated definitively.The holder seems to be of better quality than other intimations. I bough another holder for cheaper from another source and it is much more shoddy compared to this one. The other imitation also barely fits into the blue adapter, doesn't fit at all into the black adapter!

These blades turned my outdated silhouette machine into a updated and future proofed cutting machine it's never cut better in its entire lifespan.

There seems to be a controversy as to whether the blue tips are 30 or 60 degree blades. The Amazon photo indicates the blue tips are the 30 degree blades, but looking around several vendors agree and disagree about this. Everyone agrees the red are the 45 degree blades. With that said mine must have came indicating the blue is the 60 degree blades, thus I labeled them right away. I did not go looking around to verify this, but I have subsequently looked at the tips and the blue ones are the 60 degree blades. This is my 2nd CB09 holder/blade, which I labeled Yellow 30 degrees. I'm purchasing a 3rd one from this same Seller so I don't have to change blades out of the CB09 holder, so I'll have one for each degree of blade. Regarding a comment someone made about having to adjust the blade for each project doesn't understand that you set it once and then just pick your vinyl/paper type from the Studio software and cut. You don't adjust the blade as you would with the Silhouette ratchet blade. You adjust the blade by putting a popsicle stick under the blade and after you do that, you do not move the settings. You should be able to just barely move the popsicle stick out from underneath the blade, meaning you can feel a slight drag from the blade. This works with my original Cameo and Curio machines, albeit, it is tight enough you need to know how to insert it. Look at the silhouetteschoolblog.com to find out about this blade and how to insert it. I purchased from this Seller for two reasons: 1) It is eligible for Amazon Prime and 2) It is fulfilled through Amazon. I waited weeks for my 1st blade to arrive from China just to find out it didn't come with blades or springs.

Great blades to swap between my Cameo 4 Pro and Graphtec machines!

First I purchased the blade holder and blades (everything was great) then I purchased another blade holder to be able to have to different blades ready all the time. I wanted to cut some real leather so I put a 30 degree blade in the second holder and tried cutting several times and nothing.
