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

Does what it should do. Smooth, sharp and easy to use

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.

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.

Really good cutter. Very sharp and cut through multiple layers. I used it when making a padded and laminated Food mixer cover For a friend (so two layers of cotton, one of padding and two layers of plastic coating)My only disappointment is that it seems to miss cutting a teeny bit, maybe only two threads, every rotation . I can feel the jump in it as I use it.Of course this may be what it should do, I’m not sure. But I then need to repeat or snip with scissors . Other than that .. perfect and far neater than using scissors.I just need to take a bit more time cutting as I get used to it. I had a few cuts that went off my straight edge due to me going too fast but I am certainly converted to a cutter 😊👍

I'd previously tried unsuccessfully with a rotary cutter and didn't get on with it at all. Olfa had good reviews and so I thought I'd give it another try for my current sewing project. I found the Olfa cutter easier to use. It takes a little while to get used to the right amount of pressure needed for a cut but it's easy to hold and I like the safety feature of the button which prevents accidental use.

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

good

This is easy to grip and cuts really cleanly. You must remember how sharp it is as, if you loose a moments concentration, you can go off course very quickly and ruin your project. There are certain jobs that I would only use scissors but the rotary is brilliant for loads of fabric jobs. I like the little red safety button too. My last cutter I needed to hold the button in while I was using it which I can understand as the blade retracts as soon as you let go making it safe but this button stays in until you push it again from the opposite side which I prefer.Obviously you need to keep it well away from children as it is ridiculously sharp.
