I’m pretty sold on the wire cutters too. I haven’t had any problems with my little one and am thinking of getting a bigger one so I can use it with larger cardstock sizes. I do have to replace the slider blade occasionally but that’s expected. I like the large more full service Roto Trim cutter though since I no longer take my cardstock to the Fed Ex office to be cut into various card front sizes.

I've been using the Fiskar's trimmer with the wire ever since it came out. I like how light it is and that I can but any size paper with the guide arm. I scrap on a bar-height table and it didn't work for me to have a separate, dedicated space for a big trimmer, so I tried this one. And I'm in love. I really like the wire because I can see exactly where I'm going to cut and I can trim really thin slivers off what I'm cutting. Over the years, I've cut the wire a time or two if I'm cutting too many sheets of paper at once, or cutting card stock. Other than that, I think they are great. I've been using this same one forever. I really, really like it. The wire is great. I just bought the Tim Holtz one - the 8.5" - and it's great. I keep one upstairs for cardmaking, and one downstairs for scrapbooking, so they both get equal use. The Tim Holtz trimmer is cutting really crisply and cleanly, but the Fiskars one is still great for knowing exactly where to cut if I'm not using a strict measurement.

I have the Fiskars one with the wire too. I really love it and it’s affordable so more money for fun supplies 😁

I have the Fiskars one that’s like the wire guide cutters but instead of the wire, the blade slides on a metal bar. I like that theres no wire so that it doesn’t bend/get loose after you’ve owned it for awhile. However, the bar means it’s not as easy to see where it is that you’re cutting.
