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

Useful tool only problem was the tips arent always held tight enough causing them to slip/get stuck.

I dont use this for linoleum, but for pumpkin carving. It works okay on light/ pliant surfaces, but the blade tends to come loose, get stuck, or turn sideways on anything more resistant. Since its not the use the product is intended for, I cant really say that it makes it deficient, but it should be considered if the products youre using it on might need a tougher tool.

Once you get the right tip secured, this works great! The problem I had was that there were no instructions included for how to swap the tips out and secure them. It is just a matter of trial and error which was sometimes a frustrating process. Once the tip was secured, this tool performed as expected and I was very satisfied with its performance.

I have a minor issue with the different cutters. They were not so easy to change because from time to time they got stuck and I had to disarm it. However, is smooth to use. It cuts very well. KUDOS to the storage at the end for the cutters. I got cut a couple of times, so be careful because it is very sharp. Just with these 5 cutters you can get very defined craving. Overall, good purchase.

Very classic, easy to use, not the first Ive owned and not the last. Good for lino or wood, easy to sharpen, will last forever unless you lose it.

The handle is fine but all of the blades have quality issues. The ones I received all had burrs on the cutting edge. One of them had a crooked cutting edge too. They didnt used to be this bad back in the day. Step it up Speedball!

I had experience with this product

Love this tool. I made stamps with it. Very easy to hold, easy to use. Great for beginners or more advanced artists.

I bought this set at the last minute knowing I had the same set somewhere in my storage. I needed to use it for pumpkin carving and didnt have time to go through boxes. I have to say that the quality is tried and true over the years. I bought my first set 30 years ago for linoleum printing (wooden handled) and have used it for other things as well over the years. I bought another set ten years ago to teach a class and the quality was still there and now this set also. I bought the same set again because I knew it would work for pumpkin carving and the price isnt expensive.

Some tips are duller than others, and also the tips got stuck in the slot quite often. Its alright though.
