Does it cut straight?

Mine does NOT cut straight, rather disappointing

Could I use this to cut card stock (say three sheets the same thickness as 3x5 cards)?

I would not recommend it but it might work. The blade is sharp enough but you risk the cards slipping a little and then you edges will look bad. I do this to photographic paper but I can cut three manually about as quick and three stacked. Then I don't have to worry about any waste. Cut one card badly and the time it takes and the cost of loosing one card and your better off cutting one at a time. This is a great little cutter and I find a use for it almost every day. I don't know what I would do without it. It's one of the best buys on Amazon. Good luck, I hope this has been helpful. Robert Wallace

What are the dimensions of this cutter?

At its widest the broad with the handle down measures 14 inches. Its length is about 19 1/2 inches long which includes the length of the handle when in the down position.. It stands 2 inches tall.

Can you take away that clear plastic to hold the paper down?

BTW, yes you can remove the plastic "holder/keeper" from the bottom of the cutter by spreading the "plastic" tabs and pushing through the slots they fit thru 
