Will this cut through mylar sheets roughly 0.17mm thick to make a stencil?

To be honest I was disappointed with this product. I bought it for paper cutting. The first cut, the blade fell out with little pressure & although I did manage to get it back in which wasn’t easy, I found it tore the paper, Although it was intricate cutting. The spare blade just pushed in, I had to keep pulling it out with plyers. Therefore, I cannot recommend it for stencil cutting.

Where's this manufactured

Iv googled the company model craft and says it’s a uk company established in 1965 hope this helps

How do I change blade as I cannot see how the holder of the smaller blades fits.

Unscrewing the handle allows the blade, and its holder, to be removed from the end of the knife. The old blade then can be removed from the finger grip section. The replacement blade is then inserted into the finger grip section. The handle can then be screwed back in holding the blade in place.

Where can I buy more blades? I have used up the spare 2 blades included in the pack and one was broken.

Sorry I’m not sure unless amazon sell them sorry or find the knife in your past orders and the company that sells them you may be able to email them for more blades or see if amazon can get in touch with them hope this helps

Perfect for crafting

I’m really pleased with this craft knife as its versatility allows you to cut precisely. I have used it on thick watercolour paper and it cut out the figures really well

Clumsy

Theory is good, but this model just doesn’t seem to have sharp blades making intricate work challenging.

Excellent craft knife

This is the best swiveling/revolving craft knife I have ever had, for small intricate and accurate cutting out in card. The blade is tiny but is perfect for detailed cutting.

Useful tool!

Useful tool, comes with replacement tip. Takes some getting use to compared to a normal craft knife, but allows for smooth rounded lines. Good grip and build quality.

Disappointed

The first blade fell out, I’d put very little pressure on it. The second blade I used started ripping the paper after a short time, so weren’t sharp enough for intricate paper cutting. Frustrating when you’d done most of the picture! Ruined. Bad buy unfortunately

Schnelle Lieferung, noch nicht ausprobiert

Lieferung in angegebener Zeit. Messer sieht wie bestellt aus. Positiv, die Ersatzklingen sind in einem kleinen Plastikschutz. Noch keine Zeit es auszuprobieren

Bonne facture, manque de précision

De bonne facture, dommage qu’on ne puisse pas régler la rotation de la lame (tourne trop vite) ce qui entraîne un manque de précision selon moi.
