I have my original olfa. I don't even want to think about how old it is. It fits well and I don't know if I could get used to another one. Not that I would want to try them out, I just don't see a need to spend money on something I may or may not like when I could spend the money on fabric. I'm happy with my old friend...

Ditto!
:lol: :lol:

I love my olfa.

Martelli!!!!!

The only thing we use anymore for cutting in the shop are Martelli Ergo cutters. They just give a lot more control and are easier to use for a lot of repetitive cuts.

Love the Gingher. Found several on ebay for around $20+-. it arrived with a Joanns price tag of $69.99 in sealed packaging. Hmmmmm! If you want to buy one make sure you get the right one for you - right or left handed. Its not one size fits all. I also really like my Olfas which Ive had for years.

I love my retractable olfa.. I dont care much for the easy change one tho.. and I hate my fiskers- too wobbly- so i use then to cut paper..

I have both olfa and gingher, got the gingher cheaper on ebay and I do have to say it is worth the money and I do like it better than my olfa, but I use both. To each his own

Thank you for your input. I am thinking seriously about the Gingher. I have also heard the blades remain sharp longer than other brands.
