Bostitch Office EZ Squeeze One-Hole Punch, 10 Sheet Capacity, Lightweight, Gray/Blue (2402)

This is a perfect single hole punch that is excellent for crafting journals

There is a coffee shop at my work that you can use punch cards. She’s gone through so many “metal” hole punches that have broken, mainly in the trap part that holds the chads, but also the spring or the guide part covering the hole. I was concerned about buying this one because it’s plastic, but it had decent reviews and thought I’d take a chance. It’s lightweight, which worried me, but it’s very comfortable in the hand. There is plenty of space for the chads so you don’t have to empty it as often, which helps with the wear and tear on that part. The hole punch itself is strong and goes through two card-stock type cards together easily, with no noticeable additional effort on the squeeze. One adjustment is being able to see exactly where the hole will punch. Traditional metal punches are easy to see from the side exactly where it will punch because of the metal piece sticking out. You have to look from the front on this one, which is an adjustment, but after a few times you get used to it and can be just as accurate. I’m a little concerned about how it will stand up to multiple drops on the hard marble floor or counter, but so far it’s handled drops, possible because it’s so light. I’ll update if that ends up being a problem. I’m sort of an older-style-is-better traditionalist, and so I really wanted a metal hole puncher. I’d been looking at antique stores for a sturdier metal hole punch but none of them had chad catches, which was a requirement. This one seemed cheap because it’s plastic on the outside but I am surprisingly pleased with it. I recommend that you give it a chance if you are tired of the metal ones that are cheaply made breaking.

I use the ProPunch for 3x5 flashcards I create to memorize foreign languages. I would purchase ProPunch again because it is light weight and perfect for the which I use it for...

This is my three year old daughter’s favorite toy. It hasn’t broke yet nor has it chopped off any appendages. Five stars.

Comfortable to use. Very lightweight!

It is a one-hold punch, and it works as it should.

Great puncher. My last one left my hand all red.

The little lid that holds in all the holes youve punched broke off on the first use.

This is a light, easy to use whole punch… it’s great.

This puncher is so easy to use and takes about half the pressure to punch holes in twice the thickness! Highly recommend!
