if you need to have some holes punched in your paper get a hole puncher. it punches holes. that's what it was created to do. so that you can file papers in a folder. these reviews are so stupid they make me want to punch someone. instead I punch holes. in paper. with a hole puncher I bought overpriced at staples.
I will be using this primarily as a 3-hole punch but unfortunately this cuts only 1 of the 3 holes cleanly. Pretty disappointing because it otherwise seems like a nice punch.
