Handy, practical and cheap but needs a bit of tweaking

This is by far the best small blade cutter I've seen, it takes a little getting used to due to the swivel joint but if you practice with it, you can get amazing results (like @mr_riu's Instagram art, stunning!). It's also the most comfortable craft knife I've ever used, it doesn't put pressure on the wrist like the previous ones and the soft handle does.

Pros
  • Lots of positive vibes
Cons
  • No power

The reason the Gyro Cut is such a good tool is because they recognize that you need to have an offset between the handle and the blade to improve guidance and visibility on the work surface. The NT cutter seems to…

Pros
  • Free for educational purposes
Cons
  • Not sure

almost perfect for what it is. I don't give 5 stars unless I have absolutely no standards, which is rare.

Also, when screwing the blade into the end of the blade, everything wasn't perfectly aligned, I'm sure it's because the automatic machine doesn't do everything perfectly, but they should and everything should be perfectly aligned. None of these…

Pros
  • a good thing
Cons
  • I don't remember but there was something
