Re: [BKARTS] stack paper cutters?

[Kristen Kakos <kbk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

i purchased a Marti Yale 7000E cutter last year and i love it.  it's
relatively small and entirely non-electric.  it'll go up to 2inches of
stacked paper and i've had a great time using it.

(i didn't get it from this site, but it's a nice picture of the beastie)
