The Hanboost C1 is a cordless handheld ultrasonic cutter that drives its blade at about 40,000 vibrations per second, so it slices through plastic, resin, leather and similar materials with light pressure instead of force. That makes it a fit for model builders, 3D-printing cleanup, leatherwork and light prototyping, where a knife tends to drag, crack brittle parts or leave ragged edges. Compared with a hobby knife it is faster on thin and brittle stock and easier to steer along curves; compared with a rotary tool it leaves a cleaner edge on soft plastics but is not a substitute for cutting metal or thick hardwood. Owners rate it well overall, with the usual complaints about blade life and the learning curve.

Owners rate the C1 highly and mostly praise how easily it cuts 3D-print supports, resin and leather with little force. Complaints center on blade wear and the time it takes to control the vibration.
The Hanboost C1 is a wireless ultrasonic cutter that vibrates at 40,000 times per second to cut with precision. It is made for DIY users, 3D printing hobbyists, prototyping engineers, model builders, leatherworkers, craftsmen and sculptors.
It cuts a range of materials, including PLA, plastic models, leather, PVC, paper, acrylic, rubber, gypsum, PCB and wood.
The cutter has a transducer for high-efficiency energy conversion, a titanium alloy amplifier and a high-hardness alloy chuck. Its auto frequency tracking adjusts the ultrasonic output to the cutting load in real time. This keeps the blade in resonance for stable, precise cuts across different materials, even during extended use.
