Skil 2352-01 Power Cutter
Posted by hardwareworld on January 21, 2010
- This cutter is light – it weighs less than 1 pound.
Our product of the week is the Skil 3.6 volt Lithium-Ion Power Cutter.
We have found this device very handy to keep around the house. It cuts through all kinds of materials up to 1/4″ thick – and once we had it around, we kept finding new uses for it. It’s amazing how handy this device turns out to be.
One of our favorite uses for this cutter is to open those plastic clamshell packages that so many products come in (see picture). These packages always seem to be trouble to open with scissors or pocket knives – but this cutter makes surprisingly easy work of them.
One very nice feature of this cutter is the battery. It has a smart charging system that will not over charge, no matter how long it’s plugged in. It also has a low self-discharge rate: you can leave it unplugged for up to 18 months, and it will still be ready to cut when you need it. Not having to constantly charge this device really adds to its convenience.
Great at opening plastic clamshell packaging
A note on the strength of this cutter: If you are used to angle grinders or 110v cutoff tools, this tool is not in the same category. Instead, this tool is suited to any material you might cut with medium to heavy duty scissors. The tool provides a huge advantage over scissors in that it’s effortless – it eliminates cramped hands or the struggling to make the scissors cut the material.
Some of our friends with arthritis really love this cutter. It gives them a whole new ability to work with materials that they cannot achieve with scissors.
Some of the materials this cutter is able to cut include fabrics, cardboard, window screens, plastic packaging, sandpaper sheets, roofing paper, plastic barrier fencing, wallpaper, carpet, vinyl siding, and plenty more. We’ve attached a video showing the cutter in action below.
