NT Professional Mat Cutter, 45 Degree Bevel Mat Board Cutter, 1 Cutter (MAT-45P), Aluminum Die-Cast Grip, Red/Grey

Works well. Easy to use if you comprehend the concepts. It cuts at an angle with an angled blade. If you carefully follow the instructions you will end up with a perfectly cut mat the first time. Adjustable in many ways, great value.

This gets the job done but if you are planning on doing a large matte, it is a challenge. I used it to matte a jersey frame and it took a lot of patience and an extra hand to cut the large square. The final product turned out nice though. See picture (I cut the large mattes). If you are planning to cut small mattes, this is perfect. This is definitely not for someone wanting to cut a lot of mattes or large mattes though!

Well-made with accurate reference marks and durable materials. The base is sufficiently large and allows for easy accommodation of a variety of jigs and guides. I like it a lot.

Not clear instructions. It says to lower the blade, but the pictures aren’t clear on how you should do that. I think if I had lowered it more I might have cut the mat in fewer than 6 or 8 passes.

This cutter was a waste of money. I read in the reviews that some users felt there was a learning curve, so I was prepared to have to practice for it to look right. I have cut many mats for frames using a knife, but this cutter never worked well. Yes, it cuts on a 45 degree angle, but having to cut each line multiple times ended with every line being somewhat jagged. It's not sharp, smooth or easy to control. Lining up for each cut and hitting the starting spot and the ending spot was not very accurate. If you're hoping for DIY professional looking mats, I do not recommend this.

Needed to modify a purchased framed mat to fit my daughter’s 30cmx40cm diamond painting. Didn’t want to pay a fortune to have it matted and figured I won’t need a mat cutter many times in my life so I went with this option over professionally framing or an expensive tool. I drew the necessary cut lines on back of mat with pencil. Laid down a cutting mat, my purchased mat, and then a heavy metal ruler. After determining where the ruler needed to be placed, I clamped the ruler down to my kitchen island so that my pencil lines were between the visible area of the tool. Pressed down on tool to confirm the blade hit the mat on the line. Used screw adjustment to adjust the blade to the necessary depth and pressed down and toward mat as I cut. I didn’t practice and it did wander a bit (more when I tried to push down with two hands than when I used one to steady the myself and one to do the cut) but it isn’t noticeable from my finished work. Worked as I expected and am happy to be able to frame the non-US standard 30cmx40cm diamond paintings my daughter has taken a liking to.

I have used a few NT products over the year so when I need to buy a bevel cutter to custom-cut the mat for my frames, I pick NT brand first. The blade is sharp and the instruction on the package is easy to comprehend. I cut the mat board on large cutting mat and a long metal ruler I already had. They came out nicely. The trick is to overlap the cut on each corner by 1/16 - 1/8 inch or so (you won't see the overlap cut mark anyway)

I'm no pro, just learning more about cutting and matting my own photos. I got this thinking it would be a good tool. It is, overall. User error is probably the only issue - I can't seem to get straight cuts and need to apply enough pressure to cut all the way.

This actually works pretty well. Though it does have alignment marks to make things easy and repeatable, I did a test cut first, to get the feel of it and check how to get the bevels to meet without over doing the cut. Got excellent results on the first actual mount cut after that. I'd recommend using either a strong aluminium ruler with a handle for greater non-slip stability or, failing that, clamping the ends of the ruler if possible for best results. It's reasonably well made and should last well with occasional use. However, though the blade it comes with has four cutting edges it will inevitable wear out (whatever claims they make for the longevity of the steel), and there don't appear to be replacement blades available. For occasional use this is pretty good and I'd recommend it for that. However, if you're cutting mounts daily and in quatity then the Logan is the way - though clearly at greater cost. This is great value for the money, though, and works well when used with some care and attention.

Utilisé pour couper une nappe transparente pour une table ovale Fonctionne très bien

Es ist nicht so einfach einen Passpartout schön zu schneiden. Trotz diesem Tool.

This works great. Was super choked I could never resize matting because you don’t get that nice little 45 degree cut. But now I can. Little try and error required to gettin the hang of how to place the device while holding a straight edge so definitely practice on scrap material first

優異的切割能力~很棒!
