The cutting tool works perfectly fine and I used it for years. However, I have Cabelas visa card and this winter I redeemed the points from it in order to get a Cabelas high speed arrow saw. It was around 160 bucks. So it's not the highest quality. But I will tell you this it is worth every cent. You can cut all arrow types in a matter of seconds. I can cut a dozen arrows in 5 minutes and start fletching. It is a lot of fun and a great investment especially for tuning arrows. I highly recommend investing in one.
