DOCrafts XC257000 Xcut Perfect Cornered Punch

I’ve purchased several of these xcut cutters in the last couple of months. The first, shown on the left with the darker black logo, is a excellent cutter that leaves a nice clean cut on laminated paper every time. This first cutter prompted me to purchase a second of the same brand. The second cutter shown on the right with the lighter logo, is not of the same quality as the first, and tears and jags the cut on laminated paper almost every time. I even bought two of the ones on the right in case I just got a dud second time - I pulled one apart in an attempt to align the cutter, make it cut deeper and even sharpen it, but to no avail. The second cutter does cut thin paper okay, but it is a disappointing product - I’ll be returning the one that I didn’t dismantle.

So glad I purchased this particular brand / corner punch (along with the 5mm one). Works really well and cuts cleanly on up to at least 350gsm card & even paper-back sticker paper (have not tried on plasticised back sticker paper). It's very sturdy and doesn't feel like it will break easily. After reading other reviews that complained that the curve wasn't quite smooth - after a little experimenting, that's all down to not inserting the paper / card at an 90degree angle. Taking care to line up the paper properly with the edge of the cutter is actually very easy. Should, for whatever reason, it not come out completely smooth, just flip the paper / card over and punch again and it should clean the corner up nicely.Fantastic little gadget.

I bought a different brand of corner cutter recently which was simply appalling - the cut was sporadic - sometimes it cut, sometimes it just didn't and it didn't produce a rounded corner - rather a jagged mashed up edge which sort of resembled a rounded corner It went straight in the bin after destroying some of my documents.This one though, is a whole different experience.I got this as a replacement and it's perfect - sturdy, works every single time and cuts very cleanly.I've just ordered their smaller corner cutter and circle cutter as well.

I purchased this for my better half who has just begun card making. This has made a huge impact with her & she is thrilled with it. We have used this on 280gsm card & it's been absolutely fine, cuts no problems at all. It's worth noting she has fibromyalgia which affects her wrists and she has no problem using the punch as of yet.I would recommend this corner punch as it does exactly what it was purchased for.The image is against a coffee jar so as to show some perspective as to size.

Not sure why this is in the toy section but I absolutely love this lil gizmo!!!!I've got the large + small and they made my home made business cards look 100% professional. The larger curve made it look more like playing cards where as the smaller curve gave it the credit/debit card curve which was more suitable! I also curve my design work before I mount it which gives it a really nice feel also. I also love fact it has a little pocket where it keeps all the offcuts so they dont fly out all over the place. I've literally been finding bits of paper to cut with this now! When I first got it out of the package it was a little stiff but with a few more uses it got a lot better. I'm not sure how long the blade stays sharps and after how many uses but I don't intend to use this product everyday so I'll think about that when the time comes.The company MUSICAL DOLLS HOUSE also provided fast and efficient customer service which I am very pleased with!Overall good quality product and well worth the money!
