I have a lot of rotary knives but since I've had it I've decided on this knife. Very convenient and easy to use.

Cons

Small and cheap sewing item

Small and cheap. Didn't work for upholstery fabrics on a cutting mat. It may work with sheer cotton, but not with padding.

Pros
  • Complete set
Cons
  • poorly thought out

Great tool! Very low risk of injury.

I like the way these Kai cutters work. The blade is only exposed when you press down on the mat, making it almost impossible to cut your fingers. It doesn't get any better!

Pros
  • Acceptable
Cons
  • Minor

Great rotary knife for cutting tricky areas

I love Kai products and this one is no exception! I put off buying the smaller rotary cutter because I have so many sewing tools, but when I got it I wish I had bought it sooner. Ideal for small curves! I sew clothes and this thing comes in handy when I want to cut out details like armholes and necklines.

Pros
  • Arts, crafts and sewing
Cons
  • Slightly wrinkled

I love this knife - quilting

I'm in love with this rotary knife. It's safe and easy to use. Don't worry about the blade being accidentally exposed. This automatically protects you. Cuts like butter. I cut out the curves with an acrylic ruler and this allows me to get this routine done quickly. I also like the cocking lever on the back of the blade. I may buy more of these for my patchwork friends. Wonderful!

Pros
  • rotary knife
Cons
  • vanishing

What was NOT said in the description

I've heard rave reviews about Kai brand scissors so I gladly ordered this trimmer and expected it to be better. It wasn't advertised as ergonomic, but some reviewers noted that it felt very comfortable in the hand. Sorry, it's nothing more than a plastic chopstick knife. There is no soft grip on the handle. It has a very sharp, easy-to-turn blade that cuts smoothly. Except in construction, it will NOT work with slotted, striped, or mini-striped rulers. It features a flat, disc-shaped safetyโ€ฆ

Pros
  • sewing
Cons
  • thin
