"With foam board they do not dull any faster than name brand blades (not much experience with other applications)."
"I just love these - and because they are so cheap, I can swap my blade out much more often which only makes these seem even sharper."
"Being wrapped in paper and then stuck in a cheap plastic blister pack makes getting out a new blade a cautious process."
"I dug an old Xacto knife from when I was a kid for a project and quickly learned a dull blade creates a lot of problems."
"Best price for the amount of blades."
"I cut a lot of foam core, paper, and gator board and these blades just keep right on cutting."

"The blade cuts with precision and cuts cardboard very easy and almost effortlessly I was the really quiet shock on the performance due to the price I was not expecting for this little tool to perform as good as it has for me."
"Starter blade is sharp."
"I do a lot of scrapbooking and this is a very handy tool to use cutting out newspaper articles of my clubs activities."

Even unlocking it takes a little work, which lets me know it won't easily open if a child is using it."
"The handle will not stay in the upright position when you lift it, and try to position your paper...the handle drops every time about an inch, making it necessary for me to hold the handle up with my body, so I can slide the paper under the blade, and. 3. Only one thing I like-the blade actually cuts paper."
"Measurement markings on the board contrast nicely which gives me quick visual references. Compared to its most expensive older brother which is made of wood, this unit works just the same."
"I've used this quite a bit since I received it yesterday."
"I cut through 10 coupon inserts at a time with absolutely no problems."
"As public school teachers, we LOVE having a paper cutter at home."
"Cons: The biggest, and the reason for my low rating, is that the handle/blade/grid are not properly aligned. Also, the latch that is supposed to hold the handle down rarely secures it for more than a few minutes. Finally, you must hold the paper down close to the guard bar or you'll get slippage toward an incorrect cut. It's sad because this one still cuts but the hassle of never having even pages without a few extra steps is more than I want to deal with right now."
"I initailly bought this paper cutter to use for trimming prints of my artwork. Once I started using it on my artwork I noticed the measurements are significantly off."

But with the presentation of these scissors combined with the feel & the weight I'm not even concerned about them staying sharp in the long run."

"As you bring the blade down, toward the end, it doesn’t cut straight."
"I prefer the longer paper cutter since I tend to cut a lot of longer laminate with it."

"I'm a little surprised that mine didn't come with a green handle and to be honest, I didn't notice it until I bought a second one."
"For ultra thick letter press paper I like it the most, because the sharp blade works better than the chomping blade I used to have."
"You can cut maybe 5 sheets of 20# or 24# paper with ease."
