This Vaessen Creative swivel knife 360º with soft grip is perfect for cutting paper using cutting templates such as Coluzzle stencils. These cutting templates consist of sturdy plastic with each template containing figures in several sizes. This includes circles, ovals, rectangles and many other shapes that you can use in combination with the swivel knife to make greeting cards or scrapbook pages.
Simply trace along the notches of the figure in the template using the swivel knife to easily cut out a variety of large shapes. These plastic cutting templates preceded metal dies and are still widely used today, as plastic templates often allow you to cut out larger figures. The cut-out figures make the ideal starting point for cards or layouts. In addition to paper, you can also use the templates to cut photos or other materials. Because of the sturdy plastic used, there is no need to worry about cutting into the template. Spare hobby blades are available separately (2207-002).
