Anyone every use a special tool for cutting allure? My guys use a razor knife and straight edge - is there a better tool?

That is the fastest way for square cuts, it snaps when you fold it, tin snips if you go around toilet or stove gas line. --76.188.xxx.xx |

I use an old fashioned paper cutting slicing thing. Heavy duty scissors for cutting curves. --173.170.xxx.xxx |

I used snips, but they got gummy. I'm going to try roofing shears or a harbor freight paper cutter next time. --174.201.x.xxx |

We use a Bullet Tools 13 in. EZ Shear Siding Cutter.
To us it has been well worth it. --73.177.xxx.xx |

What about that little As Seen On TV cutter that was chatted about. I have one of those heavy duty paper cutters... I image they are banded from schools but once in a while i see them at thrift stores. --66.87.xx.xxx |

I've always used a utility knife with a square/straightedge. Tin snips for curves/notches as needed. Very easy. --68.105.xxx.xxx |

Chop saw with a super fine blade. Utility knife for round cuts. Linoleum knife would probably work well for curved cuts. --72.35.xxx.xx |

DonV, One of my installers uses a knife and straight edge. Sharpen or replace balde often.
Another uses the vct tile cutter shown on my Picture Page on this site.
Toilet cutouts: tin snips. One is trying a sheet metal cutting tool (shears) which attaches to his drill. $20 at Menards.

Bullet Tools EZ Shear Siding Cutter. I got the 9 inch, you should get the 13 inch.
LOVE this tool. I use it for laminate and vinyl plank. Metal snips for curvy cuts.
But the box cutter and straight edge work fine if you are only doing Allure. --98.122.x.xx |

Straight edge or square and a sharp utility knife for most cuts. A jigsaw with fine blade for trickier cuts. --70.30.xx.xxx |
