Will this cutter cut just 1 or 2 sheets simply, without clamping things down, like a regular paper cutter?

Technically yes; reliably, no. This is a stack cutter. I bought a cheap Xacto craft cutter for cutting one or two sheets, photos etc.

yes, but you would have to clamp it down. and I wouldn't recommend that for common use. It's just so heavy that a cheaper cutter would be easier in the long run. It also has a problem cutting straight (regardless of how much paper you cut)

It does not cut well without using the clamp. Items tend to "bend" . Would not recommend using without clamping. This is designed for multiple heavy duty cutting.

It will cut just 1 or 2 sheets. Just make sure you hold the paper secure against the back stop. I do sometimes, but most of the time I use the clamp and make sure the paper does not move. Remember, it takes two hands to make the cut and unless you have someone else there to secure the paper sheet, you take a chance.

Cutting one or two sheets with a paper cutter like this is like swatting flies with a shotgun. Mine tends to just crease the paper if I don't have a big stack, but that may be because I've cut so many big stacks with it. For lighter work, I recommend one of the Fiskars paper cutters, like this one: Fiskars 12 Inch Portable Scrapbooking Trimmer (196920-1001)

Yes, it will! I'm really happy with this product. It is a lot better built, sturdier and heavier, than other paper cutters I've had.

This is the best and most accurate paper cutter I have ever used. Yes, ten sheets will be cut and with the clamping system the paper stays if you need to make a couple passes.

I don't really count the sheets of paper, but it seems to work easily on 35 sheets, just stapled 40 with no problem. I just like it for the daily use 5 to 10 sheets, it is quick and it always works! Never gets stuck.

I would stay away from this paper cutter. I don't even use mine anymore.. I couldn't aline the paper exactly where I wanted to make my cut. The cutter itself is out of square. So i had to manually align my paper under the blade which i dont mind but u have to look at cutter on the side to align the paper instead of being able to align it looking striaght down at the cutter my cuts were never striaght

they sit about a little less than an inch in your papers if u put it at the tip. I've cut one down before and it worked the same

I just got this. I have cut magazines up to 0.5 inches thick. I bought it to digitize my magazine collection. I haven't tried to cut any thick types of paper.

Yes, it will cut the paper if entered in "landscape" direction as you call it. About 4 sheets at a time.

I have not gotten a chance to use it yet so I cannot answer your question adequately. From my point of view, it seems to be a cutter for paper related items and probably not for fabric.

No adjustments. Barely cuts thin paper. I had to rip single sheets to make then fit. Folding the paper was to much for this item.

It's supposed to in order to cut the paper. I received a pack of parchment papers without a cutting strip on the box also, and considered it a defective product. Can't recall if it was this brand, but I have purchased this brand in the past.

If you clamp every thing down really tight it should be "somewhat" square. Use all of the bars and stops to hold everything in place. I cut large mags like Southern Living and Lapidary Journal that have 200 sheets and just use the main clamp. That works fine, if you use the second clamp it should be very close.

It's for sharpening a pair of scissors. So if your paper cutter is a pair of scissors - yes. If not, no I don't think it would work. The two small holes there are for the two blades of scissors to go into - the sharpening part in a small tube like piece that fits in the small yellow section in-between those two small holes. Hopefully that helps.

it does. Perfect for long straight cuts. I switched away from this unit because the bar you press to hold the paper down does not have any markings. If you want to start and stop a cut for example a slit in a piece of paper you do not have the markings other than what is on the board no quarter inch ,1/8 etc. I use stampin up trimmer or smaller notebook insert from fiskers trimmer with these markings.

I believe it will only cut one layer. I purchased the Silhoutte for quilting and appliqu, have not been happy. You can find something better for quilting, the costumer service and policies are not consumer friendly. Works OK for paper. Wish I had saved my money for a better product.

I can do 3 or 4 sheets of construction paper at one time so you should be fine. I love this cutter. I had a shorter one and got the long

I have no scientific data for you, but I would deem this a "light duty" cutter. I've cut a couple of sheets worth at a time, but the more you add, the more I would expect pages to 'drift' and not be cut accurately. I'd recommend no more that 1-3 sheets at most. If you need to do a lot of mass cutting, I'd pass on this and go with something more substantial.
