Olfa RTY-2DX Deluxe Rotary Cutter, 45 mm, Yellow

Never used a cutting wheel before.I love the see retractable blade with the locking mechanism, locks shut and open, Very sharp wheel and the wheel is is replaceable. easy to use and same Ofla quality as the knives I usually use.

I didn't know that Olfa was one of the leaders for this kind of cutter, so I bought another couple of them in the past from different brand, as they all looked nearly the same.Although the other ones were not too bad, this one is absolutely on another level. The blade is really sharp and stable. The whole mechanism is also so much more solid and reliable, allowing for smooth and precise cuts.the price is also nearly the same as the other brands so I absolutely recommend to buy Olfa for any need you may have.

I chose this item as I already had a similar one which had became blunt. Didn’t realise how blunt it was until I used new one which is very sharp. Great value for money and saved a lot of my time

I was surprised how much you have to press to cut through two layers of fabric. The cut is very clean, better than with dressmaking shears, but I find it’s not so good at detailed cutting - going around pattern notches etc.

It does the job.

My first try with a rotary cutter. Is very sharp. Easy to manoeuvre around a pattern. Strurdy little tool. The blade retracts when not in use. A great tool to add to my sewing paraphernalia.

I like the safety of the lock, it’s very accurate and sharp, it’s much easier than scissors.

*bought this one to replace my old one*it is very sharp which made me think that my cheaper old one was very blunt*use it for cutting everything even a hard boards for bookmaking projects and it copes well*did not have to use a new blade and I've been using it for some time*easy to hold*yellow colour is easy to find on mine something very messy desk
