Just what looking for

Tired of a well worn out guillotine cutter and knew was time for upgrade. Accurate, easy to use, and a nice stepup in size without being too large. Nicely comes with replacement blade and cutting pad with storage compartments. Only thing I wish came with was the scoring blade for marking the bend in cards. One of the few that actually offers a scoring blade...but good luck finding it. While noted on Carl's website, the blade is not available at B&H or even that othe large retailer that sounds like a region/river in South America.

The BEST!!

I replaced my old $50 rotary trimmer with this one and it's easily the best purchase I've made all year. The magnetic guide and lock mechanism are game changers. The fact that it's made from recycled materials and has a lifetime warranty are icing. I spent a lot of time researching beforehand, and nothing else even comes close. I mostly use it to cut cardstock and watercolor paper, and it's had no issues at all. Extremely easy to get precise cuts.

question

How well does this cutter do if only slightly trimming a photo, like less than 1/16 ?
Asked by: Stephen
I have used this cutter alot. It will do it fine but you need to be precise aligning the cutting blade alas my eyes aren't what they used to be as well as the dexterity of my hands but if I pay attention no problems
