Gift Wrap Cutter

video review

Video description: Lisa demonstrates using the gift wrap cutter on a small piece of paper and shows us the blade that she removed. We also see another demonstration on a bigger piece of wrapping paper.

intro

While Lisa says that this cuts well, if the blade ever becomes dull, it could be very dangerous for someone – especially with certain disabilities – to replace. If you are okay replacing the product every couple seasons (we don’t know when it will become dull), it could be a helpful tool! If you are looking for something that will last a decade or longer, you should find a safe way to replace the blade. Lisa tested a product from Amazon Canada, so we are also sharing a similar product from Amazon US.

Pros:
It’s pretty easy to use
It cuts nicely and straight
It’s a small, convenient device with an ergonomic handle

Cons:
The blade, the blade, the blade. It’s just too dangerous to try and get out – but especially to replace! So I might use these as long as they work, but if they ever needed to have the blades replaced, I would discontinue using them.
Follow-up: I did – with great difficulty – remove the blade and put it back. Even when I put it back, it wasn’t completely back I guess, and would not cut like the other untouched one. Again, it uses blades that are extremely dangerous. You need to be very very careful with them. Not a good buy.

I use this gift wrap cutter and it is very helpful for when I am wrapping a lot of gifts. Otherwise I just use scissors.
