Saw Trax
CCD4 Coro-Claw 4mm Coroplast Cutter
Check Price
Bottom Line

A great basic cutter that's good for cutting single coroplast layers with the flutes. It's not intended, however, for cutting across the flutes.

Pros

Get a better grip with this ergonomic handle design. Cuts easily along flutes as well as full or partial sheets. Easily makes an inside or outside bend. Can make a box or column by cutting three corners. Makes it easy to cut straight.

Cons

Designed for cutting with the flutes, not across flutes. Does not work as well going through double layers.

Bottom Line

This versatile utility knife cuts coroplast as well as a variety of other media, too.

Pros

Utility knife cuts coroplast, ceiling tile, corrugate, gator board and foam board. Handle made of high-impact ABS with built-in staple remover. Ratchet-wheel blade lock allows variety of blade positioning. Tool-free blade change. Comfortable to use, versatile.

Cons

The cutting guide is not terribly useful. Some found the blades were not sharp enough to cut certain materials.

Bottom Line

This multipurpose knife is thin enough to slip in a wallet, so it's always ready when you need it.

Cons

Good mostly for smaller jobs, not heavy duty use.

Stainless steel blade channel. Solid metal blade casing and finger lock. Intended for cutting shim, coroplast, wire form, weight board, balsa wood and other media. Screw blade-locking mechanism secures blade while cutting. Locking mechanism withstands up to 44 pounds of pressure. Grooved plastic body for comfort. Comes with 12 replacement 18mm blades.

Bottom Line

A knife both righties AND southpaws can use. It's good for making straight cuts in coroplast and other corrugated media, but for angles and curves, consider another cutter.

Pros

Rust-resistant stainless steel snap-off blade knife. Robust automatic blade lock. Designed for both right and left-handed use – lefties should just install the blades upside down for reverse use. Lightweight, slim and comfortable to use.

Cons

The blades that come with this tool could be better; consider replacing them with something higher quality when you are done with the initial set.
