New Silhouette CAMEO 4 Blades (First Look)

Three new Silhouette CAMEO 4 tools will be available to order very soon!  


The new blades allow Silhouette CAMEO 4, CAMEO 4 Plus, CAMEO 4 Pro, and Portrait 3 users to get away from using some, but not all, of the tool adapters currently needed to use tools fitted for the older model Silhouette machines. 

The three new tools are: 
With their flat back and tool sensor strip, Type B Silhouette tools can be used in the left side carriage of the CAMEO 4 cutting machines and the Portrait 3's tool carriage.

Previously only the Type A Silhouette tool versions were available which have the slimmer body and required an adapter. The Type A version will continue to be available as they can be used in the Silhouette CAMEO 3 and Portrait 2). 

The Silhouette CAMEO 4 2mm Kraft Blade has a broad blade and can be used to cut thick dense materials such as craft foam, chipboard, and leather.  You'll notice it now looks very similar to the 3mm Kraft Blade, but it only has two rows of numbers. 


The new dark purple CAMEO 4 Deep Cut blade is a 2mm blade (hence the 2 rows of numbers). It can be used to cut thicker materials that aren't quite as dense such thick cardstock and thinner chipboard. 

The light purple CAMEO 4 Premium Blade is a manually adjustable 1mm blade that's an alternative to the Autoblade Blade and Ratchet Blade. It's to be used to cut the majority of materials including vinyl, HTV, cardstock, and paper. 


Other "B" Silhouette tools are the "B" AutoBlade and the "B" pen holder.

With the addition of the new tool, there are now eight Silhouette CAMEO 4 tools and blades that can be used in the Silhouette CAMEO 4, Silhouette CAMEO 4 Plus, and CAMEO 4 Pro without an adapter.
