Reviews
"My tips for punching multiple pages at a time and not ruining your paper: -Make sure all of your paper is fully into the punch otherwise you're going to (obviously) end up with crooked punches. When you punch that many pages at a time, the punches like to get stuck down where your paper is."
"I bought the circa punch even though I use the staples arc because I didn't want to spend 40$ on a hole punch."
"There is a slider at the bottom that you adjust for paper size (Letter, Junior (8.5 x 5.5), Compact, CARD, PDA, or MicroPDA), then you just insert 1-2 sheets of paper aligned against the slider, press the 1-2-3 levers, and voila, it's perfectly punched and ready to snap into your discbound notebook or planner (Levenger, Staples Arc, or Martha Stewart). If you're punching things en masse, this may not work for you, but if you're just adding a few more months to your planner, it's perfect."
"I have purchased portable paper punches before - they tend to be flimsy and of obvious lower quality. I don't understand why the three levers lock down - another reviewer said it is to reduce size, but in truth, it barely makes a difference."
"At first I thought it would be flimsy since it is plastic but it’s plenty strong to make easy work of a single sheet of paper."
"I really like this hole punch."
"My next punch will be a much sturdier punch."
"I also don't like that you have to punch each page three times."

Reviews
"Neither the unit or its package indicate where it's made but, based on the sloppy, low-quality construction and numerous tool marks, on the metal, I would have to guess China was the source."
"This hole punch was great it did the job I needed and punched a hole through my leather belt."
"I had bought a belt and then loss some weight, the belt was too big I thought I was going to half to buy a belt, know won herein in craig hd a leather hoe punch, I went on Amazon found a hole punch bought it thinking this would solve my problem and it did."
"A good economical choice, and does the job it was intended to do."
"I have looked carefully at the wheel to make sure I am turning it the proper direction, and it still does not work."
"I bought this to punch pretty heavy leather, it did not hold up."
"The punch wouldn't grip the anvil and just slid out instead of punching."
"I have to re-align the punch EVERY SINGLE TIME I make a hole - it slips so easily and doesn't stay in place, and does not stay centered when it "clicks"."

Reviews
"The main flaw I see is the too small size of the "sex screw", which I fear would quickly get lost. This is a quality product if you need to mark a cutout without using a magic marker or ball pen."
"I am able to put a good amount of pressure on the leather when running back and forth, doesn't feel like it will give at all."
"This is handy marking tool and I've already used it to mark out stitching on two knife sheaths."
"But this tool is exactly what I was hoping to get for my occasional leatherworking projects making bags, pouches, and notebook covers."
"Does what it's supposed to, but Tandy products always seem overpriced for what they are."
"This is perfect for many things, such as scribing lines for cuts for sewing and many other things that are needed to make wonderful pieces of art from leather."
"Good product."
"great hand tool for working with leather."

"The stamps have well defined edges that leave very smooth lines on the leather. The included waxed leather is good for starter projects and larger items, the edges hold well together after cutting, and a little bit of burning to finish off the edges kept everything held strongly together."
