This is a classic cutting device that is outfitted with advanced and innovative components to make it a safe, effective, and reliable resource. The Premier W30 Paper Trimmer has a 3/4" thick wooden base that is market with 1/2" grid marks, and imprinted with English and metric rules. It weighs in at an impressive 38 lbs., and is fit with non-skid rubber feet. This means that any risks of sliding during cutting are completely eliminated. The Premier W30 Paper Trimmer features through-hardened steel blades, capable of making precision cuts on cardboard, matte boards, tissue, textiles, and more. For optimized safety, the blades are equipped with a finger guard along the entire length. The cutting arm has a patented latch that locks with cutting motion, and a torsion spring keeps the arm lifted to prevent any injury during paper alignment. It has a comfortable soft grip handle that also ensures good results without any undue strain on the hand - even with thicker stock or sheets.
