Really durable - paper and papercraft

I have a company that uses them in our product and they last forever. I have a couple of these that I've been using since 2010 and they still work. It's well built and the loop doesn't snag like the loop on some other kicks.

Pros
  • Satisfied so far
Cons
  • Mostly good but...

Ideal for long punches! The perfect teacher subject!

I love that this punch has a silicone grip on the handle for more comfort. I use it to pierce many things at once so the pad is great! It punches smoothly, but sometimes it can be difficult to get the paper into the "slot" where it belongs. Before punching, it's very easy to see where your hole will be. I'll have to check their other items to see if they have a normal sized hole with a pillow on the handle!

Pros
  • Looking forward to it
Cons
  • Periodicity

CUSTOM HOLE SIZE

To be honest I haven't looked at the hole size of most papers (for binders, folders etc.). It didn't even occur to me that there could be different hole sizes. In case you're wondering, 1/4" seems to be the standard. So half that size. I spent about 20 minutes punching holes big enough to fit index cards on the ring. Then I have the thing It would help if they described it as a decoration or craft punch.

Too small for A5 binding

This is a great hole punch but unfortunately I've found that 1/8 inch is almost the diameter of my binding rings so it's too small. I wanted to initiate a refund and saw it through to the end before it said it was non-refundable, but right below that was a return date of March 10th. I didn't see anything anywhere on the site when viewing the item that said it was non-refundable. So now I'm stuck with a hole punch I can't use and have to order another elsewhere because the brand doesn't make the

Pros
  • Good workmanship
Cons
  • Poor instructions

Well done. Pay attention to the small hole size!

oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooh I didn't even read the description of the product and didn't understand that it makes a small hole, much less than the standard saint. my fault It's solid and we only used it to punch a few holes to make a bigger hole and it was fine. We punched holes in laminated cardboard. Along the way through the project someone I worked with theoretically got a standard size hole punch that would be easier to use (compared to punching…

  • Practical thing
Cons
  • Everything is good so far

Holes not standard size and not even circle

I am not a seamstress and have never bought a hole punch. I have used several Fiskars products in the past so I chose this brand as it has never let me down. Although the ad mentions the stroke size, a link would be helpful. This hole punch will not punch a standard-sized hole in loose-leaf paper or a standard-sized ring binder. This hole is tiny. I had to drill 3 holes to get the right size hole for my binding paper. The biggest disappointment is that the stamp didn't cut a clean circle. The…

Pros
  • Elegant design
Cons
  • Long delivery time

OK; but it could have been better.

I bought these to punch holes in aluminum beer, soda and juice cans. I make spirit stoves. I give most of it away; but a friend is selling some of them on eBay. Before I could use this puncher for my purposes; I seriously needed to change it. First I used needle nose pliers and erased the paper guide so I could run the punch along the edge of the can so I could punch through the kiln nozzles. Second, I used a screwdriver to pry the guide out. a basket that catches small bits of aluminum because
