Review on πŸ”ͺ Fiskars 6x24 Inch Rotary Cutter and Ruler Combo: Enhance Your Cutting Precision by Shantel Griffin

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Ideal for small crafts

Easy cutting for what I've used it for. I was able to easily smooth out the fabric with a ruler. However, in some places it was difficult to follow the lines marked at half the points. This was an easy fix, just grab a marker and mark a line from time to time. I did this because I cut out a lot of the same width. It is very easy to cut on assembly line. It is great for assembling pieces and easy to cut for class crafts. Make sure, that you have a large cutting mat to place this on. Furthermore, this is not good for long lengths of fabric. The details on the box say it can cut through 8 layers. However, I cut very thin fleece and couldn't fold it in half at all. I also keep a portable rotary knife close by because it sometimes skips. I've found that the straight cut breaks when you try to return to the original position. The grip you squeeze to move the blade requires a little more pressure than I expected. It feels like it might break because it's such a light guide that follows the rotating blade. You also have to move a little to the side from time to time to get a clean cut. I think, it will easily cut through jeans? no Will it cut through regular fabric, felt, jersey, canvas, etc.? Yes, it will come in handy for simple cuts and small projects.

Pros
  • Ergonomic handle and 45mm rotary blade provides a smooth and reliable cut through multiple layers of fabric, spring-loaded blade only engages during use
Cons
  • Cord is shorter than other picks
