Handy Cutter Uses

Handy Cutter Uses main image

Have you received one of our free Handy Cutters in your order and aren’t sure how to use it? It may surprise you, but this little gadget is fantastic for a variety of uses in sewing, embroidery, craft, and other household applications. 

Handy cutters are small, easy to store, and fit perfectly in your hand during use. It was designed with safety in mind to avoid injuring yourself but should still be used with caution. 

So what is it used for?
The Handy Cutter is especially great for cutting things on a roll, such as stabilizer, heavy interfacing, and wrapping paper. It makes achieving a precise, clean cut 100x easier than just using scissors. Just line up the tool with the edge of the roll and slice straight down. You can also cut heavier fabrics like canvas, corduroy, and heavy upholstery fabric, as well as cutting chenille and vinyl for craft projects.

Apart from being used for sewing, embroidery, and craft, this tool is also ideal for a range of household uses. Open letters, boxes, packaged goods, or even cut off tangled hair in your vacuum cleaner. It’s essentially suitable for anything that can be cut with a small blade and an excellent option if you’re looking for a tool that is a lot safer than your average stanley knife!

Our Handy Cutters aren’t available for purchase on our website but are one of the fabulous freebies we provide in our shipped orders.
