Fiskars Rotary Trimmer: 24 Inches of Cutting Precision
For most scrapbookers and light use needs, a 12-inch cutter or trimmer will likely do the job. But if you require a fuller cut length that offer maximum versatility for your projects, you may want to consider the 24-inch Fiskars rotary trimmer. The Fiskars brand, which manufactures steel products, has been around for 350 years, and is associated with nothing but quality.
For your cutting needs, this Fiskars rotary trimmer is ideal. Its full 24-inch cut length means you can use it for virtually any project, and the rotary blade action won’t tear the paper. It can cut up to 10 sheets of 20-lb. paper with its precision blade. Despite its size and sturdiness, it is still lightweight, at around 4 lbs., making it easy to transport and store out of the way, even on a higher shelf.
It is quite easy to use, thanks to the presence of both English and metric measurements on the full-sized base, ensuring precise alignment. A pivoting guide rail makes it easy to position the paper and keep it there, with a bit of “stickiness” to it that reduces the need to apply pressure. The rolling blade stays close to the cutting service, producing a smooth, burr-free cut. The only thing you will want to be sure to do with this particular model is to apply even pressure on the blade so that your cut will come out even.
In addition, this Fiskars rotary trimmer includes a four-sided cutting strip, and a limited lifetime warranty. For even more versatility, this model is compatible with all of Fiskars’s 45-mm blades, including its pinking, wave, squiggle, and other decorative edging blades. The mat is self-healing, which makes it last even longer.
For those needs which just cannot be met by a 12-inch model, this Fiskars rotary trimmer is an excellent choice. It retails for under $100, which is less than many other brands’ comparable models, but does not skimp on quality or durability. Backed by that limited lifetime warranty, and the reputation of the Fiskars brand, this rotary trimmer will help you realize all your tasks beautifully for a long time.
