It is exactly what I expected and does just what I need it too, and the handy wooden box it comes in is a plus.

I love this set---what can be said--it is a XACTO set. Having the 3 different sizes/types of knives are great for scrapbooking

Did I get a lemon?

Received item very fast. Packaging was great as usual. Now the bad part. I purchased this kit for a shadowbox project and based on all the great reviews this seemed like the perfect choice to cut everything from paper to thin cardboard. The ergonomic handle holding the standard blade actually fell apart (more like flew apart as one piece landed about 3 feet from me) when I had only been using it less than 5 minutes to cut around some photos. (that didn't work all that well--seemed like a dull blade) When I couldn't get all the pieces back together I gave up and asked my husband to look at it. Now this guy is mensa and it took him awhile to figure this out and he had to jury rig the thing. There appears to be a piece missing as the blade itself has a notch to hook on but there's no corresponding hook in the handle???? We did find what we THINK may be another piece later on, but it was only a metal ring which didn't help the problem anyway. Hubby managed to get the entire blade squeezed in there by tightening up way past what it should be, but this isn't exactly what I had in mind. I need to be able to change blades frequently and by myself. I know this sounds as if we must be dolts, but both of us have used xacto knives before over the last 30 years or so, and this is the first problem like this we've both ever encountered.

As for the other handles/blades-The small rotating blade is great for delicate cutting of photos, notecard paper. The straight blade appears to be handy to have around, but I haven't had the need for it right now.

The wooden box is very handy. Nice storage for the knives and extra blades.

Still don't know if I should return this because of the #11 blade/knife problem or not. I really need to use that one right now...
