EK Tools Circle Punch, 1.25-Inch, New Package

EK punches are the best and never disappoint. One of the features I love best is they lock flat for very easy condensed storage unlike the punches that have the punch lever on top. They are super easy and smooth to use. Easy on your hands. Highly recommend.

I had to replace circle punch 1.25 inch which I had.

This is an amazing tool for 10 bucks. Im using it to punch out circles of sticker paper to make custom poker chips and its perfect. People have asked if you can see what youre cutting out. Ive enclosed a picture to show what the bottom of the punch looks like. You just line it up and squeeze and perfect 1.25 circles come out. I couldnt be more pleased with how this worked out. The other picture is the finished product. Very happy!!

A friends non profit was organizing a fundraiser, and needed some gifts made, so I purchased this punch, so that I may create 300 custom fantasy token coins, to be given away, at a Mad Hatter/ Alice in Wonderland themed party. The coins turned out beautifully. The punch created the perfect size disc every time. The trick is to turn the punch upside-down, so that you are looking directly at the interior metal cutter and frame plate. Place your artwork face up and line up the paper, so that you can see that the art centered, exactly where you would like to see the punch, cut out the shape. Every edge was crisp and precise.

this has been a very helpful tool. I use this on this cardboard and tetra pak without a problem. So much easier than cutting out circles. The only thing I would change is to be able to see from the top. I usually turn it upside down so I can align the paper just so, but that seems to be working just fine (just a bit more work on the forearms)

I needed a punch that would cut through laminated paper. I did not know how difficult it would be to find something to cut out a circle. I opened my package right away when I received my punch and tried it on a scrap of lamination (with regular paper and 5 mil laminate) and it cut without any problem. Then I tried 110 card stock with 5 mil lamination and that worked as well. This is the best punch you can buy!

The circle punch was shipped in a bubble envelope. For a supposedly new one, it looked older and more used compared to the ones I own of the same brand, but I kept it because I needed it quick, the price was good and it works perfectly Problem was not the item, but the packaging, or as I now suspect - repackaging. When I reached in and grabbed the top of the package, the punch slid out!I I had no idea it was already open at the bottom. I want to be clear, the bottom cardboard piece was missing- completely ripped off of the package. I was lucky I was quick enough to remove my foot before it hit, but luckier when my quick foot movement startled my dog enough for him to jump out of the way- the punch barely missing his head before landing on carpet. Great circle punch but terrible repackaging Amazon!

I use this to cut circles in thick coated phosphorus match strike paper. The cutter extremely heavy duty ( I was surprised because if its price point) and cuts a crisp circle. So happy with it, I purchased a smaller size as well. Thank you for a Great product at a very good price!

Excellent product. I was hesitant to buy the hole punch because it seemed like could not see and align what punching out. BUT if turn over the punch (to bottom side) can easily center and see what you are punching out before to make sure aligned up. I would just put that into product description or into the photos of product so other consumers know.

Worked great for making arts and crafts and cuts smoothly! I made some buttons out of the punchouts as well.
