ESSDEE3 in 1 Lino Cutter and Baren Kit (10 Cutters Styles 1 to 10), Multicoloured

Great set.I do a lot of lino cutting and have various tools, including expensive ones.These are the cheapest but they are also very useful.I particularly like the smallest v cutter, it's sharp and gets into corners nicely.The way everything packs into the base is great, and once the handle is screwed in it makes a useful baren. It isn't the heaviest of course but it's more than adequate for getting started.This is a perfect set for beginners but also useful for more advanced printers.Thanks for reading, I hope you find this review helpful.

I wanted to try Lino cutting and a scalpel wasn’t cutting it - well it was but too much . These were a really cheap way to test out the craft. Probably not good enough for serious artists - they don’t quite offer enough control - but fine for a beginner.

Good set of tools for someone starting out in the art. Sharp out of the box, the threads that hold the blades in are metal and seem strong, I've never had a problem with the blade working loose under use. The case makes a baren, but I'd prefer a firmer one, but it's usable without issue.

Nice set of lino cutters, value for money, and handy little storage unit/baren.

Ive only used it for soap carving so far but I am quite impressed with the design and its compact storage.

A good starter kit, but in the long run separate tools are better.

I’ve just started to carve my own wooden stamps for block printing. I bought this set, because there’s a variety of blades included and the set doesn’t cost the world, which was important to me, as I’m new to carving and experimenting a lot. So far, I’m very happy: the blades are very easy to fit and change, and the handle has the perfect size and is very comfortable to hold. I’ve tried different blades on soft and hard wood, and they cut through both with ease. The blades included enable me to work fine details as well as take off the wood surrounding my image. Not sure how long they will stay sharp, but definitely good value for money!

About four blades quite bunt considered sending back
