IMHO. If you don't have a good grip on your ruler you will still have mis-cuts.
One of the best tools I bought was the Quilter's Slidelock ruler.
I agree about the Slidelock ruler. I bought it for safety reasons. I use it on top of my ruler, no use putting in an extra time wasting step to but it up to the ruler. The fabric isn't budging a smidge.
