As to the Park cutters- They work well enough. But when you use others you'll see why park's don't have the reputation that some others have. I will say Parks are easy to find, are rather flexible in the cutters available and not too costly. Andy
Thanks, Andy. Yeah, I kinda figure the Park cutter isn't as high quality as, say, a VAR cutter but I can only justify so much expenditure (my wife comes into this
) and since I probably won't be using it much, it will probably do the trick.
