Pros : I learned to cut glass on this, and it makes nice scores and feels comfortable in my hand. I've never had problems with it leaking oil.
|
Cons : I'd had this for only four months when the top of it cracked clean off. I continued using it, with a plastic baggie rubber-banded over the opening, only to have the cutting end also break clean off after another three months.

Pros : This is the best cutter I have used to date. It makes the best scoring lines. I get super accuracy and such easy breaks. Definitely will only use this cutter in the future! Love the assorted colors! Hasn't leaked either, which has been a problem with past cutters from other manufacturers. It also has a nice cover for the tip. LOVE IT!
|
Cons : none

Pros : I have found this cutter to be easy on your hands, especially when cutting many pieces of glass. I switched from ones I had been using for years.
|
Cons : It does leak when laid on it's side. I also tightened the screw too tight when filling and it cracked along the seam. I have re ordered a new one.

Pros : I can't imagine using any other cutter! I teach beginners how to cut glass. They're cutting glass easily in no time at all with the Toyo pistol grip.
|
Cons : None!!

Pros : I could have sworn I owned them longer than 30 years. Still I have had five of them now. I would not even try anything else. They are the best.
|
Cons : If I could find one better I would. I have tried a few. Do wish they came with a second tip for free. Just always buy a second tip. When they go bad it happens in two minutes flat.
|
| Other Thoughts : I just order two more for myself, what does that tell you? Somebody liked the ones I had really well. They decided to grow legs and walked out the door. They were both old enough to start Grade school this year too. |

Pros : Love this cutter. Comfortable to hold, angled to allow view of field thereby increasing accuracy. Wish I'd had this cutter when I was a picture framer.
|
Cons : Would be great to include a replacement head with purchase.

|
Pros : I have carpal tunnel (due to pregnancy) this cutter really helps ease my symptoms.
|
Cons : I have used a supercutter for years with no problems. The first cut I made with this pistol grip cutter, oil leaked from the seams all over my hand...I do like the feel of the cutter so I will just use it with a few drops of cutting oil at a time.
