I use this Fiskars knife handle with #11 scalpel blades, pictured below . The blades are stronger than xacto and hold their edge as long as excel blades. They can be bought in 100 packs for about ten dollars. I have used this combination on cutting mats and the pictured tempered glass surfaced, backlit, lazy susan thingy with no problems or blade breaks. Xacto blades are cr@p! use Excel or scalpel blades. For cutting requirements like 2mm formers, Olfa makes some excellent heavy cutting craft/utility knives.
