I bought this paper cutter because of the name X-Acto and I wasn't disappointed. It cuts rather than chops the paper. Very light weight and easy carrying handle so you don't mess with the cutting blade. Also, cutting arm locks nicely in place when not in use. The sliding paper guide didn't secure well to the paper cutter and I lost it after just the second day of use, oh well.

Unless you give the cutting arm extra pressure and simultaneously line your edge to meet the blade, it doesn't cut well at all. If you cut a little and want to trim a bit more, it cuts very poorly. Wouldn't buy this again, was tempted to return it but can adjust the working results with pressure on cutting arm, but it requires precision.

      Here at [...], we use this tool to cut everything from paper to fabric for quilts and bag ties. It stays sharp, makes clean, straight cuts, has an embossed grid, and a ruler. This took the place of a small tote full of scizzors, rulers, templates ect.! Love it.

            This is just to make sure before I buy... will it cut 8 1/2 x 11 standard paper down to 8 x 10 with clean edges. It's crucial to be able to staple to the backs of 8x10 photos.

              It will cut 11x17 paper only width wise; there is a cutter guide bar that stops at the end of the product, at 12".

              A:

              It could, but the blade "slot", I guess I'll call it, fits to a max of 11 inches and very closely-alittle too close if you want a perfect edge.

              A:

              No, you will notice in the name of the product: 12" plastic paper trimmer. You need to look for something bigger. I would suggest at least an 18" trimmer.
