 Minimal improvement over standard blade.Mar 07, 2009
By therck
I purchased the Cricut Deep Cut Blade assembly for my Cricut Expressions machine because I knew I would be cutting thicker materials like chip board and thin foam. The standard blade is really not appropriate for anything thicker than typical construction paper. But, the "Deep Cut" blade won't cut through my chip board even on the deepest setting.
Cricut needs to be more specific regarding the thickness of materials it can handle and of the depths associated with different blade settings. There is way too much trial and error involved with adjusting depth settings.

Eh...doesn't perform as describedMay 01, 2009
By A. Blandford

I purchased this blade with hopes of cutting chipboard. It didn't now work at all. It only penetrated about half of the chipboard material. I gave it two stars because it did come in handy as a better blade for cutting glitter paper.

 Does what its supposed toJun 11, 2010
By Kitchens and Chemistry
I've been cutting materials about 1/8th of an inch thick with this blade. I find I have to use to multicut function to make sure there aren't any little spots that didn't get cut completely though. I also have found that the thicker materials need a little extra sticky to stay in place on the mat (makes sense, since you're cutting through more material at a time there will be more resistance). I just use some double sided sticky tape, and it works just fine.
On a side note, it fits in the Cricut Cake machine, so if you just get the sticky mats you can use it to cut out papers/leather/foam board, whatever, instead of just cutting food items. I know Provo Craft says not to use the Cricut Cake for non food items, but they are full of crap. If you use a separate mat and blade, then NONE of your machine will come in contact with both your food items and your paper items. Besides, even if you used the same mats/blade, if you are making things out of paper that is SO toxic that a microscopic sliver or the residue of the dye could make you sick then maybe you should reconsider operating the machine in your house! I'm pretty sure anything that toxic would have to carry a warning label anyway... So as long as you aren't flavoring your coffee with scrapbooking glue, I sure you'll be fine. Provo Craft just stands to make MUCH more cash if you buy both a machine for both food items and paper products, so of course they'll say you shouldn't use it for both.

link for help using deep cut bladeNov 29, 2009
By kindle krazy
"me"
Here is a link I found helpful. Yes, it does take a lot of practice and such to get good results using different items, however once you find something that works you should keep a journal, it helps so you don't make the same mistakes. This does cut things that the original blade can't cut, and it is very important that you start with a good tacky cutting mat. [...]. Keep trying it is well worth it.

 Not for chipboard at all!Sep 27, 2009
By Carol Choate
The deep cut seems stressful on the machine while the chipboard will not stay in place and makes a mess of the chipboard. Cricut should do something to compensate for the deep cut promises. Ive spent enough money!
