Misinformed and disappointed.

The product description does not state that it should only be used with a Fiskars craft blade. I can't even use it with an Exacto razor blade because the insides are beveled.

Pros
  • Ideal for cutting out embellishments for cards, collages, scrapbook pages, embellishments and other crafts.
Cons
  • There are other interesting options.

Having a pack of three stencils is a good deal.

It's good to have a set of three templates in different shapes. There are grids on each template so you can easily use them when drawing lines or cutting out pictures. The only thing I have is the stencils were broken or cracked when I opened the package. They came in bubble wrap but the corners were chipped and cracked :( It would have been better if they came in a box.

Pros
  • Grid simplifies layout for error-free manufacturing.
Cons
  • Unsure.

Repurposed for woodworking and they work very well.

Thicker than some brands, almost 1/8 inch. I think they are meant for use with a Fiskars DIY tool but I needed something to use with my router and instructions to cut holes of various sizes and shapes in plywood and woodworking templates are for a one off process ridiculously expensive. They worked great as long as you were careful not to push the router guide out of the template (woodworking templates are 1/4" thick). I bought another brand of plastic drawing templates, that were thinner and…

Pros
  • Rigid plastic stencils will not yellow with age or curl
Cons
  • A newer model could have been chosen
