Re: guillotine or rolling cutter for paper?

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

Re: guillotine or rolling cutter for paper?

I've used and owned both guillotines and rotary cutters and find them equally good at the mid-level of quality. Both my cutter and my guillotine at home have slightly skewed measuring guides on their boards, which is annoying, but I've learned to compensate, and the blades are good and square so

guillotine or rolling cutter for paper?

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
