Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I tried a couple of similar scrapbook corner punches. Unfortunately none of them are perfect. With the Paper Shapers punch there is some wiggle room when you try to line up the paper, so it takes some practice to get a consistently clean corner without a little "step" in the paper at the edge of the corner. Fortunately this punch lets you turn it over to see exactly where the paper will be punched.
I was using this punch to round the corners of laminated photos, but after a few photos it stopped punching through and now only bends the corner and jams. I think the cutting die may be slightly bent. Maybe I was trying to use the punch for something it wasn't intended, but I don't think 5 mil laminated photos are particularly heavy duty. It still works for plain paper.
This punch lets you remove the plastic clip so you can punch the straight side of a piece of paper to make a scalloped edge, but to do this would be so tedious I don't know why anyone would choose this method over scalloped-edge scissors.
One other thing I wanted to point out: Another reviewer said this punch was the one to use for playing cards. However, the radius of this punch is 1/4", and the corner radius of standard playing cards is 1/8" (the same as a credit card corner). You can still use this punch for playing cards, but be aware the corners will be larger than a standard deck. Unfortunately there does not appear to be a consumer-grade scrapbooking corner rounder smaller than 1/4" (I found 1/8" punchers but they were much more expensive).
The other corner punch I tried and kept was the Aidox Angle 5mm Eater Corner Rounder Small. It has its own shortcomings (it struggles with a laminated photo and can't round very small pieces of paper), but it seemed to make consistent clean corners better than the Paper Shapers punch.
