I occasionally create event tickets at work that require a perforated section. We used to just crease the tickets at the point we wanted them torn, but I saw this and thought for the price it was worth a try. I'm sure happy I did!

It's much smaller than I thought it would be, about the size of a USB thumb drive (I've added some photos to show size), but not so small it's hard to control. It folds up like a pocket knife so the blade isn't exposed.

The tool works smoothly and easily on a wide variety of materials from regular copy paper, vinyl decals, cardstock, thin laser gloss stock, medium density cardboard, foam board, pretty much everything I tried it on worked well with the exception of corrugated cardboard - simply because the cutting edge wasn't tall enough to go deep into the corrugated section.

Other reviews mention it is difficult to get it to work on cardstock - simply put the work on top of a piece of thin cardboard (priority mail box works well) and it easily perforates even the heaviest cardstock.

Also, others say they can't get it to work against a ruler - use a taller straight edge or level, or I use my mat cutting straight edge and run the plastic edge of the cutter against the straight edge for perfect accuracy. For regular cuts that can be off by a tiny bit, I put my ruler 1/8" away from the line I'm perforating as a visual guide, then draw the perforating tool towards you.

Someone mentioned it worked better pulling towards you instead of away - of course it does, all cutting tools are designed to be pulled towards you.

I've used it on 100 heavy cardstock tickets and the blade is still sharp as when I started. Controlling it and running a straight line is very easy.

My only complaint would be the color - wish it was bright yellow or something, it's so tiny I'll have a hard time finding it in my tool drawer when I need it again in a few months.

I used this to perforate tear-off tabs on 50 flyers. This worked perfect for the job.

I free-handed the straight line. I put the flyer on a cutting board in order to perforate it.

I don't know how this could be any better for the price point. Buy one!

I bought these to make multi-segment event tickets from cardstock. Generally I only need about 30 tickets for an event and I can make those on my computer. I needed to be able to easily tear one part of the ticket off at the door, tear off another part for a drawing and leave one part for the participant to keep as a receipt. If I needed to make hundreds of tickets, this would probably take too much time but for 30 tickets, it works great. The tool scores the ticket such that the ticket remains intact but will tear on the dotted line easily when needed.

I needed something to perforate my wedding invitations. They were a heavy cotton-based cardstock. This product was not able to cut all the way through the cardstock (shredded it, really), so I ended up nixing the whole perforation thing. It does cut regular paper well, though!!

I'm an experienced designer/production artist and I couldn't make this work at all on #100 card stock. The blade is too small to cut through anything other than paper or thin card stock. The size and shape also makes it extremely hard to cut straight, even with a thicker edge, because it slips and wobbles easily. Also, the perforations are long lines with very little space inbetween, making it almost a complete cut rather than the type of perforation you get from a machine. Aside from that not being practical, I just personally didn't like how it looked. You know what ended up working perfectly? A pattern tracing tool you can find at any fabric store.

I purchased this rotary perforator to make sales tags for my crafts & products I sell. I wanted creative, cute tags and the ones they sell at office supply stores aren't cute and don't come perforated. This rotary cutter is perfect for the job! It's small and easy to store along with my supplies, it folds up nicely. When I need to use it, I unfold it and run it along a ruler to create a straight perforated line. As long as you press with consistent pressure, you get a nice line that perforates perfectly. Once you get used to using it, it's just right. I would definitely recommend this to anyone looking for a way to perforate paper on their own, just for smaller projects due to the small size and I can't say the blade will last too long. Still, it's cheap enough to replace every so often. Glad I purchased this product!

I bought this to use on my wedding invites which I'm doing by hand.

Practice before you use this. It takes a about ten tries before you get the hang of it. The blade is almost too short to ride against a ruler. Works on thicker paper, but you have to press down so hard that the handle becomes uncomfortable VERY quickly. I have bruises on my finger from using. Seems to work better if you pull towards yourself instead of pushing away.

Good for thinner paper and smaller projects.

I was on the fence about buying this because of the reviews but I thought for the price why not give it a try! I work at a non-profit Community Radio Station and we do a lot of printing from tickets to pledge drive letters. By printing our own items on our copies and perforating and folding them ourselves we save sometimes thousands of dollars. Not bad for a 5-6 dollar investment! I was surprised how sturdy this was and it really was pretty easy to use and it works on thin cardboard even. I am going to buy a few more before they are gone for good!
