And, because safety is always a top priority, OLFA is very demanding when it comes to quality. This is the underlying principle of OLFA's official corporate color -- yellow. 18mm Heavy-Duty Blades Heavy-Duty Blade The 18mm blade. Suited for versatile cutting works.

They're really that good. Just watch your fingers! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ very very sharp, so far lasting longer then my standard snap off blade knife *by S***L on 14 February 2020* incredibly sharp, the coating makes extremly light work of cutting cardboard plastic packaging, the description states this is a 6 pack, but in reality the carton package clearly states 5.... for £7.99 that is expensive, . best value are the excel black version of this blade, its the same bar the coating on the cutting edge, but it is better value, 3 extra blades @ £1 cheaper. that said I really do like these coated blades making cutting shapes in soft material like cardboard/vinyl/carpet light work. Even thin sheet packing the plastic do not bunch up the plastic and requiring less swiping. Remember to take care doing so since this blade is so sharp, for the first time in years I actually cut though packing, damaging the contents! --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.us/products/121169371-olfa-lfb5b-speed-blades-18mm-pack-of-5](https://www.desertcart.us/products/121169371-olfa-lfb5b-speed-blades-18mm-pack-of-5) --- *Product available on Desertcart United States of America* *Store origin: US* *Last updated: 2026-06-24*
