It's good - I like it.

Good for my purposes. I use it to cut comic book pages along the curve to prepare them for custom binding. It's sharp, cuts clean and straight, and the size is just right for my needs. I think I threw away that stupid visor/guide on the second side I cut out and it would have been nice if the grip could accommodate larger hands but overall a good product.

Pros
  • Stationery and school supplies
Cons
  • Crumpled

I also love the finger guard on it

This cutter does a great job cutting my paper without the paper slipping at the last minute. I also like the finger guard. (I always worry about little kids getting into these things when I'm not in the room! - I love the edge of the slider at the top which allows you to make sure the paper is exactly where it needs to be and don't just guess!Very love it.Great price!

Pros
  • Cutters and Measurers
Cons
  • Only available in black

The cut is slightly curved/curved - definitely not straight. I would not buy again!

I bought this for card making and photo cutting - both require straight edges. It will NOT cut a straight edge. There is a definite curve/bend in the cut. Relatively light weight, handle makes it easy to carry. However, since all sides are rounded, it's difficult to store away when you need counter space. All sides have been designed to be rounded in some way. Also, the handle isn't the same as in the picture, it's a weird open shovel handle that sticks out of the edge again and doesn't let it…

Pros
  • Trimmer and paper knife
Cons
  • Cord is shorter than other picks
