This hole puncher is a lifesaver for my crafting needs. With a 65 sheet capacity I can easily punch holes in thick and multiple paperwork .After I put it to the test, I can say it cuts through paper smoothly without any difficulty. The punching mechanism is easy to operate and FEELS sturdy in my hand. However, it`s not the most compact tool, so it might take up a bit more space than other hole punchers. Overall, I'm happy with my purchase and would recommend it to fellow crafters..See full review
