When I unwrapped this cutter I was surprised to find how different it was from all that I had used previously. I started using a guillotine type (which I have replaced and use for tough jobs) then moved to the type which has a circular cutter moving along a steel tube. That one would cut cleanly if the cutter wheel didn't ride up whilst rotating which it often did. This cutter is a revelation once you get your head round it - that's because it's different using a small very sharp triangular bi-directional cutter blade in a small orange carrier which slides along the clear pressure bar. This plastic bar is not to line up your cut - as some have complained the slot is far too wide for this because this is the slot for the orange blade carrier to slide along! You lift the clear plastic carrier bar using the grip provided and line your cut up with the narrower slot which the blade runs in which can be done accurately. Press down lightly on the orange blade carrier to depress the blade from its safety position and run the cutter forwards and then back in a smooth motion. I found that since the blade has two cutting edges if a clean cut is not made in forward then it is on the reverse. The blade must be extremely sharp as the cuts seem cleaner than on other cutters. Lift up the clear plastic bar again using the grip and remove the trimmings. With captive guide bars this was always a nuisance as these trimmings often became trapped under the bar - not so here. This cutter handled greetings cards of double 300gsm card with no difficulty providing a neat, clean extremely accurate cut every time. The difference with this cutter is that it is not just a copy of what has gone before for many years but it is a totally new design. Someone has given attention to detail and come up with a marvellous product which outperforms most of the others. My only slight reservation is how rugged is it? The light plastic blade carrier and guide rail look as though they will not last - but time will tell and at the low price replacing the entire cutter may be better than replacing a blade. Congratulations from an engineer to whoever designed this product. Well done! Only had this one day, used it hundreds of times on thick card and have the following design recommendation. Several reviewers have complained about the cutter snagging and tearing the paper. Problem is that white nylon cutter carrier has square edges which can catch the edge of the paper and tear it. I have chamfer cut the two leading corners off mine and it performs a lot better. The alternative seems to be to start the cut not from one end as with a rotary cutter but in the middle of the paper and then move in both directions. This also seems to get around the problem. An easy design change as it only affects the blade carrier mould.

Such a simple and brilliant piece of kit. Very light. Cuts perfectly 350gsm silk baryta. 300gsm lustre and 290gsm metallic papers. I suppose if you put in to many sheets at a time you will have problems. If you’re sensible it works very well. £10.99 is a steal and worth every penny

This craft cutter is okay. It cuts well, but the problem is it doesn’t stay level when it’s on a surface and wobbles a bit when you move the cutter across. You have to keep the pressure on it to stop it from wobbling so not ideal.

I only needed something to cut a few pieces of card and paper occasionally and this is just perfect. Lightweight compact and works very well and easily. I ordered extra blades as a back up as I wasn’t sure how long the blades would last

Well made productand quite versatile . So far only cut two peices of paper. Just wondered, however ,how long will the cutting blade last and the easiness in obtaining a replacement. Overall pleasedvwith the Cutter.

Love this, it’s cuts super easy everytime

C'est la première fois que j'utilise ce type d'appareil. Il me convient tout à fait : je coupe du papier, du carton et des couvertures de reliures en PVC 250 microns. La coupe est droite et nette.

I had bought this paper cutter because my last one (different brand) broke. I love this one. It is more sturdy than my previous one. Well made. I like the fact that the razor blade retracts so you wont cut yourself by accident. I haven't used the extension arm yet but am glad it's there in case i do. Highly recommend

Used for cutting photo borders and was very easy to use. Measurements are precisely defined, but thickness was limited.

I ordered it by accident but decided to keep it. It is working well for small trims on various artwork and doesn’t take up a lot of room on my desk. I’m not wild about the blade protectors obscuring my view to the cut line but I can live with it.

This has been working very well for cutting my Lino Prints which I use thicker paper made for watercolors and/or acrylics. It easily cuts through thinner drawing paper too. The paper cutter is small enough to easily store in a drawer when not in use, but long enough to cut various sizes of paper. I’m happy with this purchase.
