Review: Great rotary paper trimmer. - I do a lot of scrapbooking and card making. So I do a lot of die cutting as well. I've used different craft paper cutters that always seem to need the blade replaced. This rotary trimmer however is very durable and I like the fact that the blade sharpens itself. It does very accurate cuts, works well and will cut five sheets of 92 lb cardstock. It is very easy to use. I also found the price to be very reasonable and a great value. I recommend this personal rotary trimmer for any Crafter.
Review: Amazing cutter for standard paper and cardstock! - I've used this cutter for quite awhile now and it's still going strong. It cuts through heavy cardstock with ease and the blade hasn't dulled at all. It's simple to use and works well for large and small cuts. I would definitely recommend purchasing this cutter.

**Q: Where can I buy a replacement blade for this model?**
A: Dahle sells replacement parts direct.  A member of the Customer Relations Team would be happy to help you place your order by phone at 800-995-1379.

**Q: New vs Old. Is the new version better?**
A: No. I’ve had a couple of the old design and love them. Smooth, and after yrs, seem to never dull— self sharpening also. The new design SQUEAKS horribly. After realizing that, I ordered another that was listed as the old design. I received a new model again. :( Also squeaks. Now I have no idea what to order. I’ve relied on Dahle for abt a decade. Hated Fiskars and the guillotine type (neither have had accurate 90° angles. What do I order now?? Bring back the old design, Dahle. Please?

**Q: Do you have free returns?**
A: I would say yes, for the most part, as long as it's within 30 days. Richard.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Amazing cutter for standard paper and cardstock!

I've used this cutter for quite awhile now and it's still going strong. It cuts through heavy cardstock with ease and the blade hasn't dulled at all. It's simple to use and works well for large and small cuts. I would definitely recommend purchasing this cutter.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Proxy Card Maker Reviewer
*by G***F on December 12, 2025*

Pros: The materials are top-notch, the blade is sharp and does clean cuts, and there are many guides to help you with your precision. The self honing will save you money in the long run. Previously I was using a Fiskar. After a year of constant use, the blade wore out and I had to buy another pack with blades which were more than half the price of the original cutter. Cons: It's hard to get used to aligning the paper for those precise cuts. The metal rail on the right side is ever so tilted or bent. I thought it was me until I finally switched to the left side. The Dahle is also not as exact as a wire guide like with the Fiskar. Overall it'll take a lot of practice cuts before you get cards just the way you want. Conclusion: If you're making proxies for the long haul, it's worth the investment.
