Lightweight, good size, easy to use, inexpensive

folks, this is a very cheap, lightweight, and handy paper cutter. No, it doesn't cut 10 sheets of paper like the $300 paper cutter you have in your office. But it will provide a perfectly even and clean cut of a leaf or two. Not sure how long the blade will stay sharp but for the price it's perfect. It's lightweight so I can carry it in my briefcase, it's durable, and it has a second slider that doesn't cut the paper but just folds the paper straight.

Pros
  • cutters and gauges
Cons
  • easily wrinkled

I bought it to cut a lot of paper. I found about 10 pages was hard. It has plastic pieces that go up and down to hold your paper in place and one of them didn't fit when it snapped into place.

Pros
  • Stationery and school supplies
Cons
  • Easily torn

They also don't cut along a straight edge, but rather along a groove that's a little off the edge. If you have good…

Pros
  • Trimmers and paper blades
Cons
  • Cord is shorter than other picks
