Excellent bit of kit for price...
I needed the ability to cut a circle of vinyl for a bit of car modding. Tried several times to use scissors, but wasn't happy with the result. With this product, I achieved the perfect result 1st time with this easy to use device. Great that the scale shows directly the diameter of your chosen measurement as well as the diameter. Only missed a '5' star because it doesn't come with a safety cap for the sharp point/razor.Read full review...

Disappointed
This cutter is very toy like in construction but i suppose it ok if you were to use it as a disposable cutter. I wouldn't recommend it to the serious crafter. You might want to spend more money and buy a more substantial cutterRead full review...

A Useful Tool!
This is a very useful tool. It does the job it is desgned to almost perfectly. Setting a precise radius is a litttle difficult, but with trial and error, it can be done. I've just mounted a set of large coin-like medals and it performed well. It's a little 'bendy', but if you let the blade do the work instead of forcing it, everythnig is fine. So, to sum up: Don't expect milimetre accuracy of the radius and let the blade cut, rather than forcing it and you'll get good results.Read full review...

Surprisingly good!
I have one of these I picked up at a boot sale years ago & have used many times for making flat rubber sealing washers. The blades are double ended & last a long time & can be sharpened (at a push!).<br>I needed new blades & it was cheep enough (£4.19 eBay) to buy a whole new thing with 6 new blades.
Last used to make 4 Viton washers 45mm o/d x 35mm i/d. for petrol cans - not available except as a special order.
Very easily cut from 2mm sheet of Viton
They look lightweight & frail but work well on plastic, card & thin gasketing Klingerite - Goretex etc if used with patience.
Easy to set up & use Read full review...

Good little tool
The circle cutter does exactly what it says. The gauges on the ruler are very useful as they give you both half distance and overall radius of the circle being cut. While it's not the most heavy duty tool cutter out there I use it for cutting plastics and Foamex boards and so far have had no trouble with it. As a hobby making tool it's a nice thing to have in your tool box and makes life that little it easier. Can't complain it's value for money and good for anyone at entry level of crafts.Read full review...

Jakar Circle Compass Cutter
I bought this to cut a ring out of a sheet of neoprene to make a seal for a pump. It did the job perfectly, so as far as I am concerned, it was money well spent - cheap as chips in fact. And it arrived in short order, so I am pleased with it all round.Read full review...

Bargain.
I love this little tool, easy peasy to use for perfect circles in fairly thin gasket paper, exactly what I wanted, but I think it could do heavier stuff. It's made of plastic so don't abuse it but a wee bargain for the money.Read full review...

A very handy little tool 👍
These cutters are the only way to go for crafter's looking for the perfect circle which is usually a difficult task by freehand. The design is very good and it's easy to use as well as quick when cutting photo paper although I would imagine that it would be a different story if you were cutting plastic or leather but it was only a few quid so it's still an excellent choice. The only thing I would change is the material it's made from because I think that it would be a great improvement if it was made with metal rather than plastic because it would be more rigid. I've still given it 5 stars because it is well designed and as strong as it can be given that it's made from plastic and takes a lot of frustration out of cutting circles.Read full review...

Amazing quality for such a sharp price
Used it already and it does a great job. I cut paint masks for roundels on an aircraft model and they were spot on, no feathered edges just a crisp accurate cut every time. Plus spare blades and pencil leads which I wasn't expecting. More than happy to recommend this product and the supplier.Read full review...
