CB09 Blade: eBay: goo.gl/76Wh9w (I’ve bought several from this seller, as well as many replacement blades. They are high quality and the blades are great)
CB09 Blade: Amazon amzn.to/2sPTdQ8
Note that not all CB09 blades are created equal. These are all technically knock-offs of the original Graphtec holder and blades, but as with all knock-offs, some are very well done and made from quality materials... others not so much. Please be careful when using after-market parts with your machine. When in doubt, stop and ask questions. I won't be held responsible for damage done to your machine.

Wow I can't believe it didn't occur to me just to drag the blade over what I want to cut to test the depth instead of putting it in the machine and taking it out again. So helpful. Thank you!
Thank you! I received my CB09 in early 2017 but, back then, all the videos and comments bemoaned the amount of time that set-up would take (they did say that once you found that perfect setting, it was gold). I left my blade in a box until today. Following your video, I got a good cut the first try, and a better cut when I decreased force 1 and speed a lot. Weeding still took time (maybe 100 tiny cuts within a 1.5 x 2.75 space), but man was it a nice change!!! THANK YOU!!!!
I’m so glad it worked for you! Thanks for the feedback!
Thank you so much for this video! I was on the verge of pulling out my hair and going back to my silhouette ratchet blade, when I decided to check out UA-cam once more for videos on how to actually get in the ballpark area of the blade depth. Your idea of testing by hand before even putting it in the silhouette really helped! I had just started using a new mat that was thicker and stiffer than silhouette's, which caused the settings I had been using to not cut all the way through, I decided instead of spending time to figure out the new settings and then having to do it again with the CB09 blade, I'd just go ahead and figure out the settings for the new blade. I am cutting laminated vinyl matte sticker paper at a depth of 6, it still wasn't deep enough, so I got over zealous with the CB09 blade and gashed my new mat! After watching your video and testing by hand, I was able to get it close enough that it now cuts smoothly and without deep cuts in the mat! Thanks so much!
That’s great! I’m glad it was helpful. And remember you can adjust the force on screen to help dial in your setting even more. Happy crafting!
Thank you for this information I had my cameo 3 autoblade since January I think it’s time to change my autoblade, I have cleaned it out and it will not cut but score it , so I think it’s time to change it
hi there, i just bought these for the first time. and when i have my needle and i'm looking to "thread" his back end into the holder, its not fitting in...? has that ever happened to you. so the actual piece which holds the needle, isnt really receiving it. its like its too big for the hole it needs to enter into???
Same thing is happening to me - on every size blade... 😔
Thank you for making this video so easy to follow along with!
THANK YOU! A lot of the other videos about installing and setting this up are not helpful at all, thank you!
So when using a cb09, if the test cut is fine, but the fine detail is not cutting through well would it be best to increase force, lengthen the blade or move to a 60degree blade?
How do you know what way to angle the blade when you load the holder into the machine?? Is the long edge of the blade facing you.. or ??
because its a drag blade, it will spin itself so that its moving in the proper direction as it moves across the material. It doesn't matter what direction the blade is facing when you insert it into the machine.
Thank you for your video, I learned 👍👍👍 My cameo 2 blade holder is loosing even when you twist the butterfly screw.... how Can I fix it?
Thank you so much for this! I had bought these some months ago... and then forgot what they were for! And today I thought... hmm wonder if it's a blade! Sure enough... but had no idea how to set it up! haha!
Thank you for this video! Very helpful and great insight on how to test the blades without putting it in the machine and doing the works. I bought a different brand from what you suggested on Amazon (the ebay link doesn’t work anymore) and it fits my portrait perfectly. Do you have a certain brand of blades you buy from Amazon? There are sooo many of them and it can be overwhelming. Thanks in advance!
Did you ever notice, that there are CB09 blade "holders" that they don't fit for these blades? The hole is smaller for whatever reason :/
Hi. Thank you so much for this video. Do you have a running list on your blades.
I revert seeing a long time ago to put a Popsicle stick in between the blade and holder to get the correct depth? Is that still current?
I’ve never heard that one but it’s worth a try to see if it works!
This holder graphtec ce6000 model shoot?
Thank you!!!
Your videos are the best!!!!
Thank you and thanks for watching!
How do you know if it's in correctly? The blade that comes with the silhouetter has that black line that fits precisely into the slot so you know the blade is facing the right way. How can you tell on the CB09?
It’s a swivel blade, it rotates freely inside the holder and drags depending on the direction of the cut, there’s no right or wrong way to insert it into the silhouette (same with the silhouette blade - it’s easy to instruct that the fin faces forward but it’s not necessary for proper use).
@@ElleBeeCreates Thank you! All this time I thought there was a right and wrong way, oops.
great video! for cutting on oracle 651 adhesive backed vinyl would you recommend the 60 or 45 degree blades for cutting?
I use the 45 almost all the time for vinyl and HTV
The link to your recommended blade is not working (could not be found). Do you have a current url address for that company? Thank you for the informative video!
Interesting! Does CB09 will fit Silhouette Cameo 3?
Yes
Do you have captions available in English?
what setting do you use in the software before the cut
Hi! I'm from Argentina! Nice to meet You in UA-cam! Do You think it's not good to use it because is more heavy ( because is all metal) than the originals?
Hi! No I think it’s fine, I’ve been using one for many years and have seen no adverse affects, and I know many who would agree with me.
@@ElleBeeCreates Thank you very much! I've bought it! I'm waiting for it now!
the blade won't slide into the hole for me. the sharp end came through the rubber cap in fact and poked me for pushing so hard. help!
If you bought from the seller I recommend then it will fit, I can’t speak on the quality of other sellers.
Hi, so I just got my blade out and notice it won't set down in the cradle like yours and inside the black part is springy, but I can't use the spring with the blade. It won't let me screw . U think it will still work?
You need the spring, don’t use it without it. Make sure the blade is seated in the little hole inside the blade housing, add the spring then the cap will tighten down. Some blade carriages are a bit of a tighter fit, if you’re using it on a cameo 3, use tool holder 2.
@@ElleBeeCreates mine won't set in the housing like yours and stand up. But anyway if I get the spring on it won't allow the blade to come out hardly at all. I think mine is made different from yours. I have cameo 3. Thats not the issue. It's the little spring that comes with the blade. The cb09
Try adjusting the black dial. It could be tightened too much or too little
@@ElleBeeCreates I'm sending back, it's made different from the one u have there is a wide gold piece protruding inside the black cap, and it look nothing like all the ones I looked at on UA-cam. Thank so much for helping me.
There are a few links to ones I know are good in the video description. I hope you find one that works for you
Hi thanks for showing this, what blade setting do u put it on as far as telling the machine which blade u are using¿ Such as ratchet, deep cut?
Just select ratchet. The blade depth setting is irrelevant because you’re setting than manually. You will need to adjust your force and speed to fine tune your cut.
@@ElleBeeCreates great! And thanks again for the video and your quick response. I need another blade, and was thinking it's got to be a more cost effective blade out there. I just ordered me ². So excited!!🤓
I have been using my Silhouette cameo for years now only to find out that Silhouette no longer makes ratchet blades. My supplier gave me this blade as an alternative. After they set it up as per your video. I went to try it out on my cutter straight away as I had a huge order on hold, this blade only cuts properly for the first few seconds to a minute, then it starts slipping out. The holder on the cutter does not grip the replacement blade and it slips out in the middle of a cutting job, I wasted a lot of vinyl thinking I am doing something wrong: it only cuts properly at first; if your design is big or there is a lot of information to be cut, it just cuts haphazardly all over the vinyl. I went back to my supplier with my cutter, they insisted it is working after testing it on a small design, then I picked out a bigger design, with more text, then it did the same thing, they couldn't figure out why it did that . Up till now, I am stuck with the useless blade, just praying that my old ratchet blade won't go completely bust before I buy an upgraded cutter:(
The ratchet blade has not been discontinued.

@@ElleBeeCreates Thank you but they do not ship to South Africa
@@ngoninehumba well it sounds like they gave you a bad cb09. It shouldn’t slip if it was made properly.
@@ElleBeeCreates does it matter which direction the blade is facing when put in the cutter?
@@ngoninehumba no it doesn’t
Hi, thank you for the video! was great, quick question sometimes when I used this blade and cut the blade just pop up, any help? thank you in advance.
The blade itself, or the whole blade holder? What machine are you using?
Thank you hubby fixed!!
Thank you for your videos
I assume the blue cover is the 60* degree blade? Is this the same angle you use to cut glitter, flocked,etc vinyl?
You can’t rely on the cap color to indicate the angle. You can look at them to see, the steeper the blade the higher the angle. I use the 45 for daily use, the 60 when cutting tiny fonts or small intricate designs, and the 30 for thick tougher materials like cardstock, glitter, brick HTV. For average everyday cuts I use the 45 which is a “standard” blade angle
Can I ask where you purchased the CB09 blade? I have been reluctant because I've heard there are many and not of all the same quality.
I’ve linked my favorite supplier in the caption of the video ❤️
What settings do you use for cutting leather sheets with this blade?
The blade depth you need will be dependent on the leather you’re using. You’ll need to set that manually. The only settings in the software you really use with this blade is force and speed, which will again depend on the leather you’re using. You may also need to do multiple passes
well i got my cb09 blade and 3 different blade degrees and started with the blue and not one of them fit into the hole that is supposed to hold it
It will fit, just keep trying!
@@ElleBeeCreates I'm having the same problem ;(, already tried using pliers and nothing, it wont go in ;(
How do fit the blade in the hole. The hole is way too small....Please help
It can be tricky the first time but just keep trying.
Thank you for this! So if i have to cut 2mm leather do I use the 30 or 60 degree blade?
I would try the 30 or 45
Everything I am reading online is saying the 60 is for thick material and the 30 is for thin/delicate lines... 🤔
I set my blade up.but it is still pulling the dots and insides of the letters out. Any pointers? I am using the 60 blade
Try reducing your cutting force
Ok, thank you. I will do that
What is the little roller thing that you use?
thats a hard rubber brayer. My mat wasn't very sticky so using that helps the vinyl adhere better to the mat. I absolutely love it!! amzn.to/2uEqzlK
How does your machine know when you only want to use the cb09 blade ? Do you take one out ?
I assume you’re talking about using it in a cameo 3? Just set tool 1 to no-cut and tool 2 (where you place the cb09) to cut.
ElleBee Creates yes cause I can't find a video on it but loved you video .
Headed to the gram, I'll look u up
Can it cut 2mm-3mm leather?
The blade maybe able to but the cameo probably doesn’t have enough downforce to cut thru it. The cameo 4 has 5000g if downforce, which may, depending on the leather.
Hello, can you use on a cameo 1 and 300gsm cars stock? Thanks in advance.
Yes you can
Thanks for getting back to me so quick. You wouldn’t know what settings by any chance?
Because the CB09 blade depth is set manually, you’ll have to adjust your cutting force in your machine. I suggest testing it the same as you would for vinyl like in the video and starting a pretty high cutting force due to it being 300gsm. You’ll need to do test cuts while you dial in your blade depth and cutting force. Double cutting may be necessary for a clean cut depending on the quality of your cardstock.
Does the dull part go IN the hole or rest on it? My blades dont go down in the hole...help please
The blade fits into the hole inside the blade holder.
@@ElleBeeCreates maybe I got a bad one. The dull end of the blades are not sinking I to the hole.
My husband got it in. I have a cameo 4...which sleeve do I put this in?
@@ElleBeeCreates my husband got it together. We have played with the blade the way you did (by hand) and have put it in the actual machine. It works great! Thank you for your video and your help.
I would use the adaptor that goes with the ratchet blade. I’m glad you got it up and running
Thank you
Will it void my warranty on my cameo 3?
If your machine is less than a year old and you’re concerned about your warranty, it’s not advised to use non-Silhouette supporting machine products. Once you’ve machine is out of warranty (12 months after purchase date), the use of third party tools bares no harm to that warranty as it is no longer standing.
Ok thank you,
That super quiet, please check your audio levels before uploading. I can see on levels that is only 25% volume of what you supposed to use for a baseline (so user wouldn't rock the volume up to the max)
Will the CB09 work in ths Cameo 4?
It should with the adaptor, but I am loving the auto blade in the cameo 4 and haven’t had a need to use the CB09 yet to test it out.
@@ElleBeeCreates I cut alot of cardstock and the blades seem not to last long.
I totally understand that! It’s much cheaper to replace the CB09 blades. It should fit in the adaptors tho without issue.
@@ElleBeeCreates thank you so kindly
Hi, can this be used in the Cameo 2 and can I use it on cardstock? Thank you
Yes, I’m using it in a Cameo 2 in the video, but it can be used in any Cameo, Portrait or Curio. And yes, you can use it on cardstock or any other material you would normally cut with your silhouette machine.
In the software I am not seeing all the material types you are showing. I am using the latest software or so I thought.
In the send panel, click on the tilde (the three little dots) on the right hand part of the settings (shows blade depth, speed, force, passes and at the end it has a tilde) and from there you can select your material
