A good rolling cutter can be much more precise than a guillotine cutter,
a bad one is less precise. I've used both on actual photo sensitive
paper and on inkjet paper. I consider the multiple edges to be
gimmicks. I'm sure they're good for something but don't see any actual
use for them in photography. Also the removable blade versions for use
with the different wheel types seem to be less precise than those that
are only expected to be replaced when the blade gets dull.

Hi All,
I don't do much paper cutting, and when I do, I use either a good
knife or
a generic guillotine-type paper cutter available in the departmental
office or elsewhere.
I am considering buying a simple inexpensive one for myself.
I haven't used "rolling" cutters (I believe they are frequently called
trimmers?). I see that they could be a bit more versatile if there are
multiple types of edges (wave, straight, etc.), but then you'd need to
change the "knife head", probably very frequently (?).
So, my question is:
What are the pro's and con's of both types of cutters, especially in
application to the photo paper?
Thank you,
Igor
