I have a slotted ruler. I got it to cut the fringe on fleece blankets, but I didn't like how it handled and ended up just using my regular ruler to cut the fringe. I don't think I've used it since.

I'm a big fan of Omnigrid rulers - the ones w/ the yellow lines. Often, once you get comfortable with a brand of rulers, you usually try to stay in the brand. That's what happened to me - my first ruler was an Omnigrid.
