Would this blade cut through cardstock and chipboard?

It probably would but it would dull the blade down quickly. You would be better off getting a cricket. They are made to use with cardstock and chipboard.

Yes it is very easy to use! The thicker the card stock, the better. It will cut through the thinner cardstock. Practice on paper first!

Paper shouldn't be a problem at all. I would, however, suggest purchasing a "self-healing mat" as well. The mat will "absorb" the blade, so it will cut smoothly through your thicker paper.

Yes, I have used it to cut "cards" that I have laminated. Apparently it will cut anything scissors will cut...and much easier and better.

I am certain it will. I have cut through some high tensile heavy duty decking nails and fasteners that are much thicker. You must remember that it is a vibration action tool so hold your workpiece well.

It most definitely won't cut a 2mm. soft wood. It's a good & precise tool, but only for light duty use. - It will handle business card thickness cardstock, but nothing more. - I have since obtained a Zutter Round-it-All Heavy Duty Corner Rounder to cut the 1/32" card I use. The cut isn't as clean as I would like, but it beats doing it by hand with scissors. Martha Stewart makes an inexpensive heavy-duty corner rounder that I would like to try, but they don't say what the radius of the cut is. (I require a 1/8" radius, equivalent to a 1/4" diameter.) If you search corner rounder on eBay, you will see many varieties from light duty to heavy duty table mounted ones.

I believe it will. I have used it to cut numerous pieces of paper at one time, without any issues.

yes, but you would have to clamp it down. and I wouldn't recommend that for common use. It's just so heavy that a cheaper cutter would be easier in the long run. It also has a problem cutting straight (regardless of how much paper you cut)

I suppose you could. It would produce a very smooth cut, but might be slower than a blade designed for wood. Blades designed for cutting wood would probably be less expensive than this blade, which is intended for cutting soft metals.

This saw blade is made specifically for wallboard. I do not believe it will perform well cutting wood. You need a fine tooth crosscut saw to avoid damage to the legs.

Yes you can cut glitter card stock if it's thick glitter card stock it has to have several passes to cut, but it will cut. It's the same for the chipboard it depends on how thick it is but it will cut it with several passes.

Yes, with the correct blade... and I wouldn't make a habit of it. It is really built for wood and other soft materials.

Well, it's designed for paper and cardstock, so it may cut thin leather, but I doubt the blade would last long.

I don't see why not. I use it mainly for cardstock. If you cut more than one layer though, you want to make sure that you have a really strong press on the paper, as it can tend to slightly move with the depression of the blade.

I've had my cutter since late January and I use it for making cards so far its done vey well! I have also used it to cut chip board and it's still a very clean cut! I hope this helps you in your decision !

Sure does, it chip hard wood like oak too but the blade worn out fast. Chip Plywood, mdf...no problems

I think it should cut fine. If you do tons of laminated badges it may dull the blade over time, but think CARL can easily handle this job.
