Customers praised this guillotine trimmer for its sharp, self-sharpening blade and precise cuts. "Cuts cleanly and STRAIGHT" with "clean edge" results. Ideal for card making and small projects, the 8.5" size fits well on desks. Shoppers love its lightweight, portable design. Some noted it's "a little bulky" and wished the blade arm locked when closed or had more weight for stability.

Cuts very well. A little bulky and not as larger as I anticipated but good for my card making.

Great but beware

This is a great paper cutter. But be careful if you are sitting and using it. Don't let it get too close to the edge of the table, or you could get a cut in your t-shirt if you are leaning in too far.

Paper trimmer

I love this paper trimmer. It is small and light weight. I do not always want to use my big trimmer. This trimmer sits just to the side of my work space. I can use it on small pieces of paper.

My favorite paper trimmer

I love this paper trimmer as I love all of Tim Holtz products. I used my old on for many years and finally decided to replace it. The precision and ease of use is fantastic! I make a lot of cards and do a lot of paper cutting. it is easy to measure with the 1/4 inch grid on it. I have had a number of other paper trimmers and this is hands down the best one for me.

Great Guillotine paper trimmer

This trimmer fits my small crafting area. It’s easy to handle, although I do wish the blade arm locked in place when closed. This works better for trimming small sentiments since the guard holds the paper firmly while protecting fingers.

Replacement Trimmer

I love this trimmer and the size, however the last time I used it, the blade was getting caught on the plastic base and not cutting.It's not an item I use daily and didn't have it that long. I contacted Tonic and they couldn't have been nicer. They sent me out a replacement. It actually took me by surprise as I didn't expect that. This is a great company and very customer friendly.
