Fiskars Motive Lever Punch, Circle, Diameter 2.5 cm, for Left And Right Handers, Steel/Plastic, White/Orange, Lever Punch, M, 1004748

I had to replace my old x-cut circle punch because it was so useless and kept jamming. After trawling through all the options available out there and reading product reviews, I settled on the Fiskars Lever Punch M and I'm so pleased that I did! It is ergonomically designed and so comfortable to use. I can hold it in my hand comfortably and the lever makes it really easy to use. This would be a big selling point for anyone with limited hand mobility or who have arthritis or other painful conditions, where they can't use a lot of force or don't have a lot of strength in their hands. It does what it says - cuts 2.5cm (1 inch) circles out of paper, cardstock and I also use it on sheets of labels and get a good, clean cut with no jamming. It is advertied as having a maximum cutting capacity of 180g card. As I recycle the packaging, I wrote this on the bottom of the punch to remind myself, so as I don't damage it by trying to punch out thicker pieces of board. It works extremely well and I have tried punching circles from 160g card stock with no problems - it gives a nice clean cut. It does the same with printer/photocopy paper of 90gsm or thereabouts. What I like the most about this particular punch, is that when I've printed a label sheet of round designs, I can turn the punch upside down to ensure I am cutting around the design neatly, and punch it out without any problems. Even better - the little clear plastic cover that sits over the round hole to catch the paper, can be clipped back into the bottom of the punch and stays that way, out of the way, so that you can punch your circles unobstructed. (Refer to the photos I have attached to see this example). Overall, I am thrilled with this circle punch. I've had it for a couple of months now and use it regularly (every couple of days) and have experienced no problems. Very happy with the quality of this product and even more at the good value for money. Highly recommend it to any crafters out there.

These are great little punches for the money. Crisp clean edges, sturdy and they just keep on going. I have them in many different sizes and shapes and not one is a dud.

I bought this after seeing a project which used circles punched from old Christmas cards to make a garland, and was a little concerned about whether it would be sturdy enough to get through the cardstock. Well . . . it did punch through the cards for me, but it took a little more effort than I'd have liked, didn't feel very sturdy when doing so, and (as I think has been mentioned before) it's difficult to see exactly the point on the card where the hole will be punched. If I wanted to center the circle on a particular bit of a pattern I had to flip it over and remove the cover from the base of the punch (where the punched-out circles are stored), and it was very tricky to efficiently get the most out of the card I was using - I ended up with a lot of circles with tiny arcs missing from the edge, though if I'd spent a little more time I'd probably have managed to avoid most of that. What can I say? I was having fun! So I've given it 4 stars because to be fair it doesn't claim to be suitable for anything heaver than standard paper and for that, though still tricky to position with any degree of accuracy, it is a perfectly good punch. It's small and neat, easy to store and use, and it gave me a reasonably good result even when being used outside of it's recomended limits.

Fiskars make excellent products and this one is no different. The punch is very well made. sturdy and collects the chads underneath the punch so they don't spill all over the floor. A 5 star product, hence the review. The punch was listed as 1.9cm, (see description) however the actual diameter is 1.6cm. This won't be an issue for most projects, but I purchased this because I specifically required a 1.9cm cut out for a locket which sadly cannot be achieved with this punch.

Absolutely rubbish! Doesn't cut paper without getting jammed every single use. Screws paper up when cutting

This punch has just arrived, have tired it on paper and card, had some good quality Christmas crackers that were tied with ribbon and gold berries, so didn't throw anything away they will all come in useful for cards, and the card the cracker was made of is gold with gold glitter, and the cutter cuts straight through the card so the stars will look stunning when used. I try not to throw anything away if it can be used in crafting, you will be surprised by the things you can get ideas from, always think before you throw it out.... can you use it with your crafting!!

Great little punch but the diameter is slightly over 2.5cm with a punch of 2.52cm so not fit for my purpose of using with cabochon pendants. (Measured with vernier calipers)

If you've ever played Dungeons and Dragons then you know that you can quickly run out of this to use as markers for monsters in the battle grid. Plates end up fighting hoards of ravenous d6s. But with this magic 1 inch pog maker, you can create a limitless supply of npc counters on the fly! Together with a sheaf of coloured paper you can make green goblins, red demons, purple whatevers. Mark a cross in the back and you can fill them over to mark them dead. If you like you can even draw faces on the live side.
