Then I got smart and jotted down the brand name, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/exec\/obidos\/ASIN\/B000OL1JDC\/cooltools-20\">Dahle 550 Rolling Trimmer Paper Cutter<\/a> *$148), and bought one online.<\/p>\n<p>What I appreciate most about this cutter is that I never have to change blades, or deal with dull blades, because it&#8217;s self-sharpening. The steel rotary blade contained within the plastic safety housing moves across a stationary blade that extends the length of the cutting platform. This action hones the rotary blade, which remains constantly sharp. It&#8217;s also set up for wall mounting, which is ideal in my home office layout.<\/p>\n<p>One of the Dahle&#8217;s downsides is that the plastic plate that holds the paper down got dinged up &#8212; keep away from kids &#8212; causing the blade to run off the track if I&#8217;m not careful. Also, the next one I buy will be a larger model: The 550 is meant to cut up to 14 1\/8-inch paper, but it&#8217;s awkward cutting anything over 8&#215;10.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Self-sharpening paper cutter<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0},"categories":[31],"tags":[],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3844"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/4"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=3844"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3844\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":32463,"href":"https:\/\/kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3844\/revisions\/32463"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3844"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=3844"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=3844"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
