Review: Excellent chopper, heavy enough to stay put, small enough not to clog up the bench, pleasure to use. - Nice cast base, sturdy easy on the fingers / hand handle, enough weight not to wiggle around , small enough that you don't have to give up (or clear off!) lots of bench space. This one, unlike some others, uses single edged razor blades, which are supported firmly close enough to the cutting edge they don't flex, or at least if they do it's imperceptable to me. Stiff enough to dice up popsicle sticks and less tough wood and plastic materials, OK angles and stops. If you are ham fisted you can make the stop move when you don't want it to but we're dicing up small stuff here, not 6 X 6 beams. All in all a very nice tool, a step up from others masonite and aluminum bar stock handles although those work too. I'm glad I spent the extra money to get this, it's one of those tools that is just pleasant to use.
Review: Great product! - Bought this to cut clear plastic for windows on the buildings of my train layout. Works like a charm. Wish it would have come with a few razor blades, though. And I still have my fingertips, just a razorblade comes close at times!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: What's the replacement blade specs? I can see blades #9, #12. Can you provide a link to a fully compatible blade model?**
A: Hi, You can purchase replacement blades directly from NWSL if you do not have a local hobby shop,  crafts store or possibly here on Amazon. NWSL offers these in an pack of  8 blades or a pack of 75 blades. Other brands or types are not recommended. These blades remain very sharp for a very long time. Hope this helps you.

**Q: Can this cut plates?**
A: The razor blade cutter can only cut straight lines. You can make multiple cuts by moving items around.

**Q: What is the smallest width you can set the stop at?  .015?  .020?**
A: with a new blade, and a totally unused side of the cutting mat, and a better fence like a steel machinist ruler, you could probably cut 1 thousandth if you really needed to do that.  you can easily cut .015 and .020 with the fences that it comes with.  however, once you cutting mat gets notched your accuracy will drop.

**Q: How thick of wood can this chop? I need to chop something 6mm**
A: Probably not very well.  It's only designed to cut up to 1/8", so 6mm would be nearly twice that, unless it's something very soft like balsa wood, but I wouldn't try anything harder like bass wood.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ It's expensive, but if you need it, you need it.
*by J***R on July 14, 2025*

I hesitated for a long time to buy this, because of the cost. It seems like such a simple concept, you'd think there would be other people making these at a range of prices and quality. But there are very few. I did want something that would hold up, and that was as accurate as possible. I've had two different miter shears that some crafters rave about, but neither one really worked well for me -- either it left an unwanted impression on the wood, or the blade wasn't aligned right and wasn't adjustable, so it was worthless. Also, in both cases, they were difficult to use because of my carpal tunnel and arthritis in my hands. This works well, seems to be of high quality, and requires little effort. In the end, I am very happy I purchased this.
