## Questions & Answers

**Q: Are these for the original Cricut?**
A: Yes, this blade works on the original Cricut, the machine that came out before Expression, Explore, and Maker existed. The original Cricut is now referred to as a Cricut Personal. Yes, this blade works in it. It gets harder to find blades and mats for the "original bug" for all of us old school Cricut users who still have the original machine.

**Q: Are these the blades for the new Cricut Explore?**
A: NO. The blade that is "listed" as a fine point blade is not actually one. It is the OLD replacement blade. Please do not listen to the other replies. I work for Cricut. The regular (not deep blade) on this page is NOT for newer machines. They are for the older machines. You can use them but they will cut too deep. If you cut vinyl it will cut into the backing. Please use the german carbide blades (or the real fine point blade). The deep cut blade and housing on this page is ONLY for the Explore and Maker machines.

**Q: Can this be used for the cricut maker?**
A: Yes, this works with the Cricut maker.

**Q: Do i have to have the housing?  i have an explore air...can i just change the blade out in the housing that came with the machine?**
A: Each blade size/type has it's own size housing.Therefore, if the blade housing currently in your machine is for a fine-point blade, then you do not need to change the housing.   This youtube video is very helpful in regard to all the different types of blades and mats.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works well in my Cricut
*by R***O on March 4, 2026*

Works nice in my Cricut

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great replacement.
*by H***E on September 1, 2025*

A new blade is just what the doctor ordered. Easy to use, good quality and sharp. Cuts great.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Like the fact that I don't worry about compatibility
*by M***. on April 5, 2026*

I've learned to stick to Cricut housings - it seems using anything else can be a toss up. I wasn't going to worry about having the different color housings but I like being able to easily pick out the blade/project type I'm working with, without wondering which blade I might've forgotten to remove. They're compatible of course - it's cricut. I wait for sales to make it more affordable & a better value.
