Review: Using for 2.5 years and it still cuts beautifully... - I researched this paper cutter before buying it so when i saw a used in like new condition one popped up for sale i immediately bought it. 2.5 yrs later the blade is still sharp and it's still going strong. It cuts clean and neat. I use it to cut regular copy paper, cardstock and butcher paper. I wish it had measurements pass the cut line to accurately cut paper and cardstock of different width. I love the light weight, smooth finish metal body and the numbers and words are written in blue and white color that is beautiful and easy to read or find among other crafting items. Blade cuts clean, no jagged edges. I recommend this product. Review: I LOVE it!! - Earlier this year I bought a larger model (26” cutting length), and I was really happy with it. I got that one to cut down large sheets of watercolor paper because it’s so much more economical to buy the 22 X 30” size. But, there are some smaller things I wanted to cut, and I wasn’t that happy with the Fiskars that are basically a straight blade that gets dull fairly quickly. It’s also hard to keep the paper in place unless you’re very careful. People give great reviews to that style because it’s inexpensive, but I wanted something with a little heft and a reliable cut. This is it! I saw some of the reviews that weren’t that great, but I think their needs/expectations were different from mine. I don’t care about cutting a stack of paper. I only cut one sheet at a time, and all I care about is accuracy. Along with that, it’s a great size. I like that I can get replacement blades and cutting mats. The storage is a plus, too. I’ll use this one mostly for creating greeting cards, and watercolor swatch cards. I’m so happy!!! ## Features - Sold as 1 Each. - Capacity for 10 sheets of 20 lb. paper.

Will it work for me?** A: If you are printing 12x18 photos on the 13x19 paper, you can trim the short side or sides first, and then it will fit. **Q: Is there a ruler that comes out farther on the sides? What is the longest distance you can measure from the blade to the side?** A: There is no extendable ruler. The width is 9" from blade to side. I purchased it so I could cut 12x12 paper point to point to make triangles, which it does fabulously. **Q: Can you see exactly where the cut is being made? I have a rotary cutter that can't cut less than 1" because the blade guide covers it...** A: It cuts right next the guard so if you line up your piece with the edge of the guard, that's where it will cut. **Q: what size blades do i need to order?** A: CARL B-01 Professional Rotary Trimmer Replacement Blade - Straight $4.99 **This information can be found underneath the photo and detailed description of the product in the "Frequently Bought Together" section. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Using for 2.5 years and it still cuts beautifully... *by A***S on May 6, 2026* I researched this paper cutter before buying it so when i saw a used in like new condition one popped up for sale i immediately bought it. 2.5 yrs later the blade is still sharp and it's still going strong.
