Customer Reviews

There's a reason why Fiskars is no longer making these types of trimmers
These were purchased online since I was unable to find them at Staples or Officemax or any other stationary stores I went to. The 3 year old trimmer is still in workable condition but without sharp blades was useless to me. Once I received them, I realized they DON'T FIT THE TRIMMER!!!! Fiskars apparently made multiple trimmers, almost exactly alike except they used different replacement blade sizes, but all look almost exactly alike. This is not just unacceptable, it's borderline criminal. No wonder they're not available anymore locally. Good riddance to Fiskars, and this is the last of my money they will ever see.

Yep. Wrong replacement.
I for some reason assumed everyone else just ordered without doing their homework, so despite all the one-star reviews citing that it did not fit, I ponied up and ordered them when I lost my cutting carriage. After consulting the Fiskars site and double checking make and model, I was confident these would work. Nope. No deal. They don't even come close to fitting, so you can't even use these in any way with the trimmer. Booo!

Wrong blade carriage
Fiskars Replacement Steel Blade Carriage for 12-Inch Portable Trimmer , 2 per pack (1296877097)
I had a bad experience with Amazon on Friskars products. I already owned a paper cutter. No model number appears on it. The blade was very worn. I looked in Amazon and saw that they carried Friskars carriage blades.
Buy new: $6.30

When I received them I realized that they would not fit. The channels are too deep. I have a picture of both types but am unable to send it to you with this message. So then, I ordered this:
Fiskars 9698 Euro 12-Inch Portable Paper Trimmer by FISKARS
Buy new: $25.99 $21.49

That turns out to be exactly the same as what I already owned, but it did come with two of the correct blades which I would like to keep. I would like to be able to return the new paper cutter and the two incorrect blades (both packages have been opened). You would do yourselves a big favor by getting Amazon squared away on what works with wheat. Model numbers would make this much easier.
