29 customers mention0 positive29 negative

Customers find the stability of the utility knife to be poor. They say that the tool wobbles and it's difficult to keep it from wobbling while making circles. Customers also mention that the circular blade is very wobbly and lacks precision. They also say that it slides all the time and the fabric moves around too much, making it difficult to cut an exact circle.

"...However, this meant that the fabric would snag, move around, or the cutting circle cutter would leave pieces still attached if you tried to cut..." Read more

"...Also there is a slight wobble to the disc blade that *may* throw off alignment...." Read more

U will need some practice

U will need some practice
I bought the Olfa rotary cutting tool, pack of 2 extra blades and the 6x8 green mat. I bought it to cut out Valentine's day tags that were printed on matte photo paper. Here's my review...This cutter works super well, after you've practiced a bit that is. When I had first gotten it I was really upset and felt like throwing it away. The circles just weren't coming out with smooth edges. The edges were all jagged and I was ripping the center of the circle with the pivoting needle. I decided to calm down and exercise some patience. This is how i made it work:1. Put the needle at the center of the hole2. Position the cutting blade on the edge of the circle, press it in, making sure it penetrates the paper. U will hear it cut thru the paper (on thinner papers maybe not)3. Then just rotate the entire paper and mat instead of the cutter itself. Hold the cutter stationary and firmly.4. The result, more than a hundred, perfectly cut out 2-inch round Valentine's day tags in less than half an hour - something you're not likely to achieve with a scissors.My wife is able to do it the way it is advertised, using just one hand and rotating the cutter back and forth and all around till the circle is cut out. But like I said, it will take some practice and u will find what works for you.Ps - if your circles to cut are already printed out and u don't have a mark on the dead center of the circle, u will need to size the radius on the cutter itself just a tiny bit smaller than the true radius on the printed circles. So when u cut, u will end up sacrificing the outside edges of your printed circles. It's just a thin strip u will be losing but it's better than having to use the true radius of your printed circles and then end up with a tag that encompasses some white background paper. Try to imagine what I'm saying.Good luck circle cutters !
