What Customers Are Saying

Customers praise this tool for cleanly cutting acrylic, plexiglass, and polycarbonate sheets, with many noting it cuts "like butter" and makes clean lines when used correctly with a straightedge and firm pressure. Most find it affordable and effective for light diffusers and poster frames. However, a significant portion report durability concerns, describing the tool as flimsy with blades breaking on first use or plastic bodies snapping under pressure. Several advise buying something sturdier, noting it won't last long despite initial performance. Overall, reviewers recommend it for occasional projects if used with proper technique, though durability remains a consistent frustration.

Does the intended job!

Would Recommend

Works as expected, needed to cut some plexi and didn't want to pay a premium to do so. This was all I needed. It probably won't last a long time, but for a short term use its ideal

Like a Pro!

Would Recommend

It is a very sharp tool. Follow the instructions to get a professional straight edge. You can use the tool more than once to make the break easier.

Sturdy Tool For A Plastic Handle

Would Recommend

Worked with several grades of polycarbonate and nylon. The plastic handle will fool you. Appears to be insert-molded very well. Would like to see what the rest of the blade looks like inside all that plastic.
