Default New Corner Chomper

Has anyone seen this in real life? I have the original corner chomper and use it all the time. I'm thinking I might have to get the new one as well :-)

I am going to pass on this gadget even though I LOVE my corner chompers. I prefer a larger cut, like the 1/2" choice on blue corner chomper. If you like corners with just a little nibble off the point, then this is the one for you.

I didn't know it was new, but I do have it. I suspect that I have a defective one though. My corners rarely cut properly. I have tried the foil and the fine sand paper but it doesn't ever manage to cut the edges consistently which is disappointing. But I would be head over heals with it if mine worked as well as my other corner chompers. It so perfect when you basically want squared non rounded edges but want a more polished look to your edges. I mainly use the 1/8 side for this very look.

As I am in Australia I will need to contact the company directly to hopefully resolve my issue. Wish me luck. I really would recommend this 100% failing mine which I suspect I've just been unlucky with .

HTH.

I must agree. Your "nibble" reference is perfect. It describes the 1/8 side to a T.

hmmmm, I might hold off then. I'd love to try it out in real life before I make a decision to get it. I do like the idea of a little nibble off the corner :-)

I think I'll pass too. could probably use scallop scissors for such a tiny corner. I've see Susan Rahaila do that.
