Dritz Deluxe Seam Ripper Review

I use mine to remove all sorts of annoying loops and velcro sorts of attachments that I do not need from gloves and bags and other gear. Works good on tags and advertising logos on clothing and other fabric products as well as just ripping them seams to cleanly remove a jacket/shirt lining or a sleeve or something of that nature.
Let me put it this way: If I buy a shirt and it has your logo on it, even a little tag on the corner of the pocket and you do not pay me to advertise your product, the logo comes off. And this is the little tool I use to do that.

Fiskars 95217097 45 mm Rotary Cutter Review

I had the opportunity to try the Olfa and the Fiskar rotary cutters from a friend who had both. After trying them for about 15 minutes, I decided I preferred the Fiskar cutter. The Olfa was okay and worked well, but the Fiskar cutter felt better ergonomically. The Fiskar handle was curved, sturdier with a better grip. I don't care for the straight cutters. Another friend also preferred the Fiskar cutter. We all decided Fiskar cutter was the best ergonomically, but will probably buy the Olfa blades. I hope this helps for those who may be on the border between the two. I rate it 4 stars because the blade is better on the Olfa.

A handy tool for any craft enthusiast's toolbox, this general-purpose 45 mm rotary cutter makes easy work of cutting through heavy stock or multiple layers of fabric, paper, felt, vinyl, cardboard, mat board, cloth, or fiberglass material. The unit features a contoured loop handle for a secure, comfortable, left- or right-handed grip; a long-lasting razor-sharp blade; and alignment markings to ensure a correctly positioned blade guard. The engagement lever on the top of the tool lowers the blade. When finished, press the release button on the side of the cutter to retract the blade for storage and safety. With fewer parts and no small washers, the cutter's blade can be changed effortlessly thanks to the easy-grip nut with a plastic cap for tightening. The rotary cutter measures approximately 8-4/5 by 4/5 by 3-4/5 inches and carries a limited lifetime warranty.
