This Soft Grip Rotary Cutter features a comfortable, ergonomic handle for comfortable cutting even during long projects. The innovative blade guard system lifts out of the way when you're cutting and drops back to protect the blade when not in use. The rotary cutter stays upright so it's easy to grab when you need it. The high-quality blade is hardened and lasts longer than other rotary cutter blades. One replacement blade is included with the rotary cutter.
