Quality cutting discs at a good price, good combination of types

Let me say right away that I'm impressed with the speed of delivery. The item arrived more than a week before the expected delivery date. Well! I did some quick tests with regular cutters (really sharp!), a fine toothed perforating wheel, a wide toothed perforating wheel and a corrugated cutter. All of them work and are useful. As I expected, the thickness of the scalloped edge of the cutting tool in the handle of my Fiskars rotary cutter necessitates a thin pad behind it to push it away from the handle. Shouldn't be a big problem. I like the nice little packaging that the blades come in. It has a spindle that they all fold onto. (Some people may prefer to have individual blades packaged in separate protective sleeves so they can be installed without risk of touching a very sharp cutting edge. This is not the type of storage packaging.) The steel used, the fit and the workmanship looks excellent. . All blades have a nice thick film of oil to protect against rust. If you choose to install the blade, it is easy to wipe. I have not used the two perforated blades or the wavy blade with a pink sheen before. I use sanding scissors on a variety of projects on both fabric and paper, so I'm looking forward to the quick and easy use of the rose pattern disc cutter. The perforating wheel with small teeth and small spacing creates perforations in the paper, with which you can later tear it apart. A perforating wheel with wide teeth and a large distance between them forms a series of small slots for various purposes (not for tearing). I've read about using these holes to sew thick fabrics by threading string or yarn through the perforated holes. It can also be useful for "scoring" thick paper for easy folding. The new straight blade was fun to use. I didn't think my old Fiskars blade was dull, but my biceps won't get the same strain with the new super-sharp "hot knife through butter" blade. This will definitely improve cutting accuracy. At this low price point (about $1 per blade) I'll probably fit a new one every time I start a new project. My only general criticism is that the hole in the center of each blade is slightly larger than the hole in my Fiskars blade, which matched the Fiskars handle perfectly. As a result, Kisswill blades have little play when installed in the handle. (While the Fiskars fit perfectly on the Kisswill body spindle, all Kisswill blades have a little play on that spindle). think that this will affect the cutting accuracy during use. If so, I'll update this review. So far I'm glad I have them. Good quality at a very reasonable price. And cutting part of my life is getting easier! TO UPDATE! - I now had the opportunity to use them. They are all sharp and cut well. One issue I've noticed is that the hole in all of them is slightly larger than the Fiskars blade and pivot point in the Fiskars handle. This makes these blades a bit sloppy on axis, but that's not a functional issue. More importantly, the straight cutting blade and the large hole blade each have three notches in the hole, each as large as the part that sits on the axle. During use, you can feel and hear "cla-dunk, cla-dunk, cla-dunk" clicks as you cut. This is not a breach of contract. I would still consider these blades to be useable and worth buying. But that is a bit annoying and leads to targeted wear on the axle bolt. When I see how the groove develops I'll do another update.

Pros
  • Quilting
Cons
  • Unbelievable price
