Fun gimmick, not really usefulFeb 15, 2009
By Alan Winston
"blockplay.blogspot.com"
This looked handy & fun so we thought we'd give it a try.
Bad choice.
The throat (distance you can punch from the edge of the paper) is only 1/8" -- which complicates positioning since you have to trim one edge within +/- 1/16" before punching -- so much for most of the advantage of positioning face up.
The mechanism is also not very sturdy, and jammed trying to do moderately heavy card stock. With some effort and perseverance, we got it unjammed again, but phooey.
The Paper Shapers punch we switched to is almost as easy to use punch-side up (though it wasn't made to be used that way), has a 3/4" throat (six times larger), for much, much easier positioning, and is much, much sturdier, going through the same piece of card stock with ease.
The squeeze design is a fun gimmick, and we wouldn't discourage you from trying one, but choose a pattern purely for play value and get something else for serious use.

Flimsy and cheap materialsFeb 08, 2011
By Naomi Lee I used my punch for the third time -- and the moving handle literally broke in my hands. I was not using a death grip; indeed, I have rather small hands without a strong grip. The handle broke off and is irreparable. Oy.

Quality not living up to the Fiskars name.Oct 03, 2011
By Michael Mcbeath Jr. I've owned many Fiskars products over the years. From scissors to tree trimmers. They have always been a quality brand.
This hole punch isn't quite with the rest of their products.
I would give it 3.5 if I could.
Overall the design is great. The "see where you are cutting" idea is ideal for the project I'm working on.
The downside is the cutting dies aren't exactly perfect to each other. When you squeeze it closed without anything it you can see small gaps and nicks in the outside circle. When you cut something out you see rough edges where these are.
In the big picture this isn't a big deal, but like I said it's disappointing coming from a company who specializes in cutting devices.

LOVE ITDec 15, 2009
By JennyPants
"Jenny"
This is fabulous! Its super easy to use w/o hand cramps. It cuts a decent sized star and it doesn't appear to have any parts that could result in hurt little fingers. Two thumbs up!

Different, but GreatJun 09, 2008
By A. Powers This punch is a great addition to my collection. It's different from my others, which use a thumb-button. But it is comfortable in my hands and cuts cleanly every time. I print information on colored paper and then use the punch to cut out the words and phrases. It's a great way to spice up photos and crafts without spending big bucks for specialty stickers. Believe me, the craft stores sometimes rob you blind. Buy your own punches and you won't regret it!
