Our take on the Swingline Paper Cutter, Guillotine Trimmer, 12" Cut Length, 10 Sheet Capacity, ClassicCut Lite (9312)

The Swingline ClassicCut Lite is a 12-inch guillotine trimmer with a plastic base and a spring-loaded cutting arm. It cuts up to 10 sheets of 20-pound paper at once, which covers everyday trimming of documents, photos and cardstock. A dual-scale ruler marked in inches and centimeters and an alignment grid help line up cuts. It is lighter and simpler than heavy wood-base guillotines, so it suits light home and office use rather than high-volume print rooms.
