Review: Perfect measurement for 1/2” hole - Perfect. A true 1/2 hole cutter and not one that was rounded to nearest fraction in a metric conversion like so many others do. Thank you for preserving our standard measurements.
Review: Does it work?? - I use a lot of craft paper punches, and most of them struggle when trying to cut laminated paper, and adhesive sticker sheets. I've had success cutting both of those mediums with EK paper punches, and this EK circle paper punch is the same. It cuts cleanly through even vinyl sticker sheets, which are notoriously difficult. The vinyl has a tendency to stretch, which makes using paper punches almost impossible, without distorting the vinyl. The adhesive can cause long term use a problems for most paper punches. It builds up inside punches, and causes cheaper punches to fail quickly. There's something about EK paper punches that makes them last longer than other brands. Time will tell, but I'm very pleased with this EK paper punch. It's the first lever style EK paper punch that I've tried, and it makes easy work because it doesn't require a lot of effort. I like that it locks in the closed position because it's easier to store, and takes up less space. The lever style makes it versatile, looks great, and the overall weight makes it feel like a quality product. If you're looking for a great paper punch, give EK paper punches a try.

## Features

## Questions & Answers

**Q: i want to punch out photos. will i be able to see the photo that i am punching to make sure it is centered?**
A: Yes, you will. You will just have to turn the punch upside down to view them. The design of these punches makes it very easy to do.

**Q: How far will I be able to go from the edge to punch the circle.  I need to go from the edge in about 1-2 inches.  Will this work?**
A: The 1.25 circle punch punches 3/4 of an inch from the edge of the paper.

**Q: Will this cut contact paper?**
A: Yes, it will cut through, as long as you take into account:  1) You have to have the hand strength to compress the punch to cut through a thicker material. If you can't squeeze the punch hard enough, the blades can't do the work.  2) The blades will be initially sharp enough, but will dull a tiny bit with each use. To sharpen the blades, cut through a very fine sandpaper a few times. You will feel the difference.  3) If the contact paper has a sticky adhesive, it will get on the blades and you will need to stop and clean them. You could try one of the label removing solvents, like Glue Gone, on a cotton ball or rag.

**Q: Will this cut card stock paper? I need to make about 500 hole punches so I'm not sure if it will last.**
A: It will cut card stock, that is what I was cutting when I cut my circles.  They turned out great.  I would guess it would cut 500, don't know for sure though.
