Blade NOT sharp

Not impressive Not sharp at all which surprised me considering it's new and a Fiskars product. I had to roll the blade several times to cut, but even that wasn't a clean cut. Thought it might be the fabric, but other reviewers mention the same issue. Needless to say, if you're buying this item, you'd better get replacement blades now, or spend a little more money and buy something else!

Pros
  • Slide button extends protection when not in use
Cons
  • Not automatic

Best circular knife price I could find

Best circular knife price I could find. The ones at all my craft stores are over $10 and the cheapest are tiny. I sew and sell clothes on etsy so this thing comes in handy when I'm cutting out fabric. But I've had it for about a month now and it keeps falling apart. The little screw that holds it in place keeps loosening and the whole thing falls apart and I cut myself pretty badly last time. But that's the only negative. Otherwise, it's very sharp, not tiny, and works well. about a month. But…

Pros
  • High quality precision ground 28mm stainless steel rotary knife stays sharp longer than other circular knives
Cons
  • Some small things
