So the Fiskar blades won't necessarily be any sharper than their cheaper competion for everyday use. They will surely take longer to become dull, and in some situations their their stronger blades truly will cut better. If those situations matter to you then buy them. But don't kid yourself that you are saving money, or buying a product that cuts boxes any better than a sharp blade that is a tenth of the price.
I'm not just dumping on Fiskars; I like their retractable utility knife and Pro PowerArc scissors knife a lot, but the pricing on these blades seems ridiculous to me.
This is a good price, however, for the SD members info, the lowest price for this has be $8 (2024 July) for 10 blades. Thus, 20 blade price would have been $16.
I have been using the same blade in my Milwaukee Fastback for months and right now it is just as sharp as when it was new. The Fiskar blades may need resharpening less frequently, but that's the only benefit I see for them unless you are regularly using a utility knife to cut things which are really, really tough. But if that's the case you should probably be using a different tool anyway.
