Speedball Linoleum Cutter Kit Assortment #1 - Linocut Carving Tools for Block Printing, Includes 5 Blades

Good for learning the basics, but if your an art vet youll be disappointed to learn that all of Speedballs products have taken a turn for the worse since theyve cornered the art store market. One of the blades was chipped but at least I knew how to fix it. If youre getting back into lino after a while like I was just save yourself the time and get some Flexcut tools or something. If youre just starting out and want something cheap to see if you even like it thats fine, just be aware that youll probably want to upgrade soon.

Lighter than expected and wasn’t expecting the nibs to come inside of the handle instead of separately packaged, no padding for the product only free flowing in the box however this does not to seem to have affected it in the slightest

Used to carve watermelon for graduation. Worked great

I got this to try and carve out the foam of a craft pumpkin so light would shine through without actually cutting through it. Not sure if the foam cured itself after I got the outside off, or if this thing is just super dull, but it didnt do what I needed it to do. Im sure it works for its intended purpose.

I used this product to etch a pumpkin. I was loving how well it worked, until I went to change nibs to the size #1. To my dismay, the base of the nib that is inserted into the cutter was broken on one side--this made insertion tricky. I could get it in, but it was almost impossible to tighten it so that it would not wiggle. I was not able to use nib #1 to do any fine lines.

The cutter assortment arrived within one day. My daughter needed them for a high school art assignment that involves carving linoleum and then making prints. Her teacher sent me this link and thats how I came to purchase this specific brand. It is the same set she uses at school and works exactly the same way. So if you are carving linoleum and making prints, this will do the job.

The first blade was stuck in the device and was really hard to dislodge. Haven’t used it since.

This is my go-to tool for pumpkin carving. Ive won three contests with it. For the price, you cant beat the size assortment of cutters here, and the ability to store them all inside the handle is very useful. The blades attach to the grip very well, and do not wiggle or slip when using this tool.

Very easy to hold and use. Sharp as all get out. Highly Recommend!!!
