Fiskars 01-005452 Recycled Bypass Trimmer, 30.5 cm, Black

WOW!!! AMAZING PRODUCT. LIGHT WEIGHT, HIGH QUALITY MATERIAL. EASY TO CARRY. MAY PRICED A LITTLE HIGHER...

I used 3 trimmers before, and I faced a lot of issues with them: they all didn’t cut perfect size, the blades became unsharp quickly and the cutting line become unfinished well. When I used this one for the first time I was so happy. It’s very accurate and very light to carry and there is no need to replace any blade. I’m using it for 6 months now and it’s still new..

As a first grade teacher, I use this Fiskars Deluxe Bypass Paper Cutter every single day—and I truly don’t know what I’d do without it! The cuts are clean, precise, and consistent, which is exactly what I need when prepping centers, classroom materials, and student work. It’s sturdy, easy to use, and has held up beautifully with daily use. Honestly, this is a non-negotiable in any classroom or homeschool setup. If you’re a teacher or someone who loves a clean, professional cut—this is it!

11-19-2023 Caveat: Today I attempted to cut a piece of 1/8" foam core. That resulted in my ruining the trimmer. I don't know how or why this happened, but I hadn't gotten more than 1/4" threw the attempted cut when more than expected resistance caused me to stop. After removing the foam core, I couldn't reseat the blade. Evidently the metal strip on the trimmer (not the blade itself) had a gouge in it that would hang up the blade. There was no way to save it. I tried finding a replacement strip but not having found one, I threw out the trimmer and ordered a replacement. Don't use it on anything but paper... ==================== Original Review ========================================== I recently took up the challenge of creating a board game for my nephews and nieces that also requires a small deck of personalized playing cards. Having watched several informative videos on the subject, I settled on a method where I create 8 evenly spaced on letter sized card stock, which I then laminate and trim to produce 8 individual cards. Based on the recommendations by one You-Tube guru, I purchased the Fiskars Sure Cut Portable Trimmer to facilitate this. But, while researching cutter/trimmers at Amazon, I decided to double down on my tool investment and also purchased this Fiskar's Bypass Trimmer. (I have no idea why it's labeled as "Recycled" - maybe a returned item being resold?) Comparing the effort and the results of both the Fiskars SureCut Portable Paper Trimmer and the Fiskars 01-005452 Recycled Bypass Trimmer to trim the playing cards, the latter has proven itself to be vastly superior in making accurate cuts. My card artwork includes corner marks that assist in lining up the laminated card stock in the trimmers. Unfortunately, the Portable Trimmer’s cutter wanders a bit during cutting and doesn’t truly track with that fine guide wire. The results were good but not perfect. The cards vary a bit in size no matter how carefully I set up the cuts. With a little care in the aligning those index marks along the lower cutting edge, cuts made on the Bypass trimmer were straight and super clean. The cards were virtually identical. In both cases I used the Kodomaru Pro corner cutter. (another invaluable tool for the DIY game card maker!) The deck I produced with the Bypass Trimmer felt like a storebought deck of playing cards. Those cut with the Portable Trimmer? Not so much. This Bypass Trimmer may cost a little more than the Portable Trimmer, but if you plan to use this to make game cards, you'll be glad you spent the extra money.

LES PLUS : - précis et les coupes sont très très propre - possibilité de couper beaucoup de feuilles à la fois - il est très large (et dans les 2 sens) si je le compare à d'autres modèles, la tranche peut couper jusqu'à environ 31 cm, un peu plus de 12 pouces - vous avez une graduation en métrique et impérial qui est top - léger - super ergonomie LES MOINS : - pour mon utilisation, pas de points négatifs

Endlich hab ich meinen Papierschneider gefunden , nachdem ich einige bestellt und retouniert hatte , die nicht zu gebrauchen waren . Nutze den Hebelschneider vorallem für Bastelarbeiten . Dabei war mir eine Breite von 30 cm wichtig . Außerdem muss die Maßeinheit gut ablesbar sein , und sowohl in cm als auch inch . Der Fiskars Hebelschneider schneidet Graupappe von 1,5 mm mühelos durch. Denke er schafft auch dickere , aber hab ich noch nicht ausprobiert . Leider wird der Fiskars in der Suchmachine von Amazon nicht angezeigt . Hatte ihn auf Youtube in einem Video gesehen und explizit danach gesucht , und gefunden Schade dass man den Hebelschneider so nicht findet . Alles in allem bin ich sehr zufrieden . Der Hebelschneider ist vom Gewicht her sehr leicht und durch den Tragegriff schnell von A nach B getragen .

The Fiskars trimmer is great for my card making. It has a plastic shield that keeps the paper secure whilst trimming allowing for a perfect cut each time. Also has a sharp cutting blade - no catching or ruffling paper
