I have a Gingher and love it. It seams to be more balanced in my hand.

I purchased a Kai cutter at the Des Moines quilt show. I literally love it. Have used several of their scissors too. I think they make quality easy to use products

45mm Olfa's what I started with. I prefer the ergonomic one that closes the blade automatically.

The fiskar with the hole handle just makes me feel safe.

I have the Gingher and LOVE it. The blades for Harber Freight work very well also. Happy Quilting. :lol:

I prefer my Olfa...have tried them all as they came down the Pike...hated the Martelli the most!

Bottom line is...a good TOOL is a like a GOOD man...only you will know which one is the BEST for you!

Let's see... I have Fiskars: 18MM, 28MM, & 45MM sized rotary cutters. I also have an Olfa 28MM one, that I use for cutting out patterns where the seam allowance is added on. I LOVE the 28MM & 45MM because of the way that they fit in my hand. The "hand fitting" is key to me. I am able to use the cutter for alot longer time.

Use Olfa cutters. Have one in each size of the ergonomic ones.
