The Pilot Pen Olfa CMP-2 Heavy Duty Circle Cutter is a lightweight yet sturdy tool that is designed for cutting perfect circles, from 7 cm to 30 cm in diameter, in materials ranging from paper and thick cardboard to acetates and heavy rubber gasket material to plywood. This versatile circle cutter uses heavy-duty snap-off blades, which can easily be replaced if required, and the blade depth is adjustable for different applications.

The design of the Pilot Pen Olfa CMP2 Heavy Duty Circle Cutter stems from the invention of the world’s first snap-off blade cutter by Yoshio Okada in 1956. Okada, the founder of Olfa Corporation, was inspired to create this incredibly useful tool after breaking off segments of chocolate bars and analysing the sharp edges of broken glass. The snap-off blade cutter has since become a bestseller across the world and is commonly referred to as an “Olfa cutter”. The length, width and angle of the blade, established by Okada, have also become the worldwide standard for the snap-off blade.

Olfa’s carefully selected materials, superior engineering techniques, vast knowledge and experimental know-how about knives and blades, and strictly controlled manufacturing processes, enable it to manufacture the highest quality products in the world.
