Review on Cushion Grip Art Knife by OLFA by Lori Aguirre

Revainrating 5 out of 5

The best hobby knife I have ever encountered, far superior to other similar knives!

This is definitely an improvement over the average hobby knife. As soon as you pick it up you will feel the difference in weight. It feels very durable and is at least twice the weight of an X-Acto knife. The blade grip is also much better than the X-Acto system and comes off easily. It's what every amateur needs, and it *coughs* its head and shoulders over the competition. The knife is well made. The bulge on the back prevents it from rolling off the table right into your leg like the X-Acto did. In earnest, why has no one mentioned this before? The cap also fits securely and does not come off. As for the blades, there are three of them in the kit, but you can also fit standard X-Acto blades in it and it will hold them just as securely. That's a good thing, because the X-Acto usually has good blades and they're cheap and readily available. I actually bought it as a saw. OLFA saw blades are ideal for model builders and hobbyists who need a perfect cut. Tamiya and others are renaming this knife their own and charging twice as much. I'll probably buy a few more to keep as a reserve. Tamiya and others are renaming this knife their own and charging twice as much. I'll probably buy a few more to keep as a reserve.
