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

This has been a great kit to use with the 'easy-carve' rubber lino blocks (also from Speedball). There is a great range of tip sizes, and they work really well with the materials that I carve. I'm a huge fan of the fact that all of the tips fit in the base! The handle is a good size and comfortable to hold from different angles. I am a casual/hobbyist block carver, so I'm not sure how well this set would hold up with extensive use, different materials, large amounts of fine details, etc., but it has worked great for me and contains all of the tip sizes and shapes that I have needed so far.

I like this set as an accessible and easy to use starter set of carving tools. The handle is comfortable and makes it easy to control the blade. The only issue I had was the cut from several of the blades was not as smooth and clean as I would expect. I did some light sharpening and they worked much better after that.

I like to carve my own stamps from small erasers; this tool is quite handy. It’s compact and made of quality materials! I really like that I can put the different blades in the handle and minimize the stuff I carry about to be creative on the go.

I ordered this because I am cutting stamps for bags. The last kit that I ordered was off brand and not very good. This linoleum cutter is great and includes all of the larger blades that I need for opening larger areas. They are also resharpenable if you have a sharpening stone. Highly recommend. Everything fits right back in the handle so you don't lose anything.

Nice set from a quality brand. Simple packaging with everything you need to get started cutting your own custom stamps. Compact size makes it much easier to create details. Includes multiple blades. All blades are different and can be used for different effects. Sharp and easy to install and switch out. Blades hold an edge which makes carving easy and leave your cuts crisp and clean. All blades are stored in the handle so it’s easy to switch blades. Handle is comfortable to hold and fits easily into the hand. May take a few tries to find the grip that works best for you. Thick plastic being lightweight feels good in the hand. Everything is assembled solidly with no blade wiggle.Overall it performs wonderfully and adds another aspect of customization of your art style and work. The storage handle is a huge plus and easy to open and switch blades and close up again. Might be tougher for people with larger hands due to its smaller size.
