The 12" LED SureCut Folding Rotary Paper Trimmer from Fiskars is a step above the rest. This revolutionary trimmer ensures cuts are exactly where you want them. When the cut rail is lowered, an LED light shows exactly where the blade will cut. It turns off after 2 minutes of inactivity to save battery life. The rotary blade cuts through as many as 12 sheets of paper at once, with no tearing or fanning. The 12" x 12" surface has a scale and grid cutting mat that won't fade over time. The trimmer folds for easy storage or travel. The expanded cut rail has an integrated smudge guard to hold materials in place without fingerprints. The cutting bar that protects the blade edge can be rotated four times to eliminate the need for frequent replacements. This trimmer uses Blade Style F. It comes with three AA batteries.

  • Ideal for all your scrapbook page trimming needs and built-in LEDs provide an illuminated cut-line for perfectly aligned cuts and last a lifetime.
  • Light turns off after approximately two minutes of inactivity to save batteries and this Fiskars trimmer folds in half for easy transport and storage.
  • Expanded cut rail with integrated smudge guard holds paper or photos in place without fingerprints and the cutting bar protects blade edge and can be rotated four times for a long-lasting cutting surface.
  • One of my favorite features of this trimmer is that it folds in half to create a 6” platform.  This is great if you want a full-size rotary trimmer but have limited space. 
  • Rotary blade cuts up to 12 sheets of paper at once without tearing or fanning, has a 12" cut length and includes three AA batteries.
  • Most other trimmers have their joint somewhere between the 5 ¼" and 5 ½" mark.  This makes it very difficult to cut mats for the standard size card.  With the Fiskars SureCut trimmer the 6" platform allows for easy cutting of anything needed for cards.
  • Measurement grid on the surface of the trimmer is covered with a thick plastic layer which means that the grid will never fade or peel off. 
  • Thick rubber feet make this trimmer very sturdy and slip resistant.

  • LOVE it!

    As another reviewer stated, it takes a bit of practice. BUT once mastered, this trimmer ROCKS! I can trim off very small bits from my photos/papers or cut 12 x 12 sheets for cards with absolute accuracy. Have used for about a year now and only replaced blade once. Blades are cheap. The light helps see exactly where the blade will cut. This is my favorite trimmer by far and I've had a LOT!

    Loving this trimmer

    I love this trimmer - easy to use and cuts true every time. There were no instructions in the box about where to insert the batteries, or in what direction, but after hunting around, I finally found the battery storage and after trial and error, got them loaded in correctly. The guide light is a great help, although it would be nice if it had an on/off which because if you leave the guide down, the light stays on and would drain the batteries. I just have to remember to leave the cutting guide in the UP position when I'm not cutting.

    Overall, it's a fantastic tool.

  • Great for big cuts - not so great for fine details

    I got this trimmer to replace the smaller portable fiskars trimmer. First, it's big and solid - will sit on the desk and not move around, and it's easy to fold and store away (the flap with the blade has a "latch" so it's won't open when stored upright). second, the light is a bonus) it comes on and off automatically, it's nice to see exactly how you line up the papers. The blade is big and solid and I had no trouble using it, and it doesn't dull the paper like other blade styles, but you have to press hard all the way through, and maybe run a couple times. Minus: what you don't see on the photo is that there are no gauge marks close to the blade - so you can't line up 1/4 inch or 1/8 inch on the spot, one has to measure and mark first, then use the trimmer. Second minus is that the lip on the top and bottom does not go all the way to the blade - so you can't use it to line up and trim a thin strip of paper, only big sheets. Third, you can't see exact spot where the blade cuts horizontally - if you like to make partial cuts (not the entire 12" top to bottom, but from 1st inch to 11th), you have to guess where the blade is cutting.
    overall, it's big and solid and it does the big job, but get something else for finer details.

  • Love it

    I have a guillotine-style cutter, but I bought this one for greater accuracy! It is really easy to "read" and the blade is sharp enough to cut through more than one sheet at a time without slipping.

  • Has a bit of a learning curve, but then it works great.

    It did take me a few days to get used to this, as you have to apply pressure to cut, but now I'm a pro at it. Love that is has a full 12" surface so no overhanging paper. I leave it open on my desk all the time. I am able to easily cut 3 pieces of bazzill cardstock at a time, which is great when doing large projects. Easily cut through the thicker glitter paper as well.

    I've been using the same blade for 6 months and haven't had to replace it yet.

    Definately a step up from my old small trimmer that only cut a sheet at a time.

  • Not what I thought

    I got a great deal on this trimmer when I went shopping in the states. I saw that it had an LED light that supposed to light up where you cut. I thought that meant it would literally show a line on your paper where the blade will hit the paper. It doesn't. It only sort of lights up the plastic guide part. I've even put new batteries in instead of the ones that came with it - didn't make a difference. Also have to push down really hard to make a cut. My other rotary trimmer doesn't require that much pressure.

    The only plus is the durability and I like the markings that won't fade.

    Note to other users - the light will turn out after 2 minutes. You don't need to leave the arm up. :)

  • Hate it!

    The surface is very slick and what I am cutting moves giving me crooked cuts and is very frustrating. It will be moved to my ever growing pile of discarded trimmers when the 18" Rotatrim I ordered soon arrives. Plus it goes through blades too quickly.

    Only Pro: It folds for ease in storage.

    great paper trimmer

    Actually was on a roll this spring. Started upgrading my paper trimmers and ended up with three. Each one better than the previous purchase. This is the third and the best! Love it.

  • Scapbooker's helper

    I have several trimmers. My favorite ones are my Creative Memories 12 in trimmer because the magnetic strip locks my paper or photo in place and this Fisker's LED 12 in trimmer because I can see the cut line clearly. I also really like the fold out full size plate on the Fisker's. It's really sturdy and does not shift on my table. It takes a little pressure to cut through card stock.

    I gave this 4 stars because it doesn't have horizontal measurements like my CM trimmer. The lines are there, but they aren't labeled. And, the CM trimmer has more variety of blades.

    just received my cutter, what is the perforating blade, they are talking about is this some thing that you can buy extra, or the blade that comes with the product.   By: User (22-Jan-17) Helpful Question?  Yes  |  No Thank you! Report Inappropriate This question has been reported. Thank you!
    • Hi! they do make a rotary perforating blade for using in their rotary handheld cutters that will also fit their desktop and portable trimmers. i've seen them on amazon. there is also a scoring blade and a scalloped edge cutting blade-you buy them all separately- it didn't come with a perforating blade. always look for 'style F' blades for your trimmer. hope that helps! https://www.amazon.com/dp/B000NV4L10/ By: gabbe (24-Jan-17) Helpful Answer?  Yes  |  No Thank you!

  • Will this work on chipboard? Thank you!   By: alilly1210 (04-Apr-16) Helpful Question?  Yes  |  No Thank you! Report Inappropriate This question has been reported. Thank you!
    • I tried using it on medium weight chip board. I found that you have to go over it several times before it will cut the chip board all the way through. I would not recommend this type of trimmer for chip board. It will also dull the blade faster. By: bennychen1 (05-Apr-16) Helpful Answer?  Yes  |  No Thank you!

    • Haven't tried it on chipboard yet. It does require quite a bit of pressure and several swipes to cut through a few layers of cardstock, but I'm not very strong. You might do better with a guillotine style cutter if you often need to cut chipboard. Otherwise I really like this cutter for its precision.
