## Description

The Pilot Pen Olfa RTY-2/G rotary cutter with a 45 mm blade is a deluxe rotary cutter designed for accurately and efficiently cutting fabric into shapes and strips. Its sharp blade easily slices through thin and thick pieces of fabric, making it ideal for multi-layer and gentle curve cutting as well as sewing, quilting and craft. The cutter incorporates an ergonomic handle, which helps to reduce hand and wrist fatigue when performing lengthy tasks, and features a dual-action safety mechanism. It is designed to accommodate both right and left-handed users. The design of the Pilot Pen Olfa RTY-2/G rotary cutter with a 45 mm blade stems from the invention of the world’s first snap-off blade cutter by Yoshio Okada in 1956. Okada, the founder of Olfa Corporation, was inspired to create this incredibly useful tool after breaking off segments of chocolate bars and analysing the sharp edges of broken glass. The snap-off blade cutter has since become a bestseller across the world and is commonly referred to as an “Olfa cutter”. The length, width and angle of the blade, established by Okada, have also become the worldwide standard for the snap-off blade.Olfa’s carefully selected materials, superior engineering techniques, vast knowledge and experimental know-how about knives and blades, and strictly controlled manufacturing processes, enable it to manufacture the highest quality products in the world.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is this a good tool for cutting t shirts?**
A: If you mean cutting them up for rags, yes; if you mean cutting out T-shirts to sew, not so much. I don't like cutting curves with my rotary cutter, but I know people who do.

**Q: Received my rotary cutter today. why is the blade covered in so much oil?  how do i clean it so i can use it.**
A: It is normal to oil the rotary cutter.  Some might have coated the blade. Warm soapy water as it is sewing machine oil and wipe off several times with a cloth.  Several practice cuts on muslin should do the trick. Carefully remove the blade. Clean any lint build-up on the blade & the handle. Put a drop of sewing machine oil around the center of the blade before reassembling.

**Q: Does it come with an extra blade please?**
A: This only comes with 1 blade. You may buy extra replacement blades separately.

**Q: I build miniature log cabins. I need a rotary cutter that will cut through small pieces of wood . Is there one to be recommended?**
A: No, it is for fabric and will not cut wood. What I would recommend for you is a small Dremil. Not sure of the spelling, but it is a great hand held small tool that you can purchase multiple different attachments for all types of crafting and repairs.
Available at Lowe’s, Home Depot and maybe on Amazon.
