Toyo Pistol Grip Glass Cutter, Assorted Colors

Great cutter! Easy to use. Feels great in the hand. Clean cuts!

This is a great cutter. I was using a straight pencil cutter and really couldn’t stand it. I breathe through this rather large window without any bad cuts, which is remarkable and speaks to what a great cutter this is.

I initially purchased a common "key" type glass cutter from a local hardware store, and then a pencil type brass oil feeding cutter from the HL craft store. Much of the HL glass I was attempting to cut had some dips and bumps even on the smooth side. Some glass my cutter would just slide all over the glass.I noticed as I watched more and more videos that almost everyone used Toyo cutters, and mostly pistol grip. Not sure if it was me, the glass, or the cutter, I broke down and ordered one. I didn't get it out until 2 days ago to start a new project for the class I'm taking. All I can say is WOW! All of those people wielding Toyo cutters on YT are so right - this is absolutely a game changer for me.It is comfortable to grip and easy to apply pressure in the correct area, angle, and amount due to the position of the cutting head in relation to the grip. All of this also makes it easier for me to guide the cutting head along pattern lines. I have tossed my $4.95 hardware store key cutter aside and plan on buying a spare cutting head for this one. I am now extremely interested in the larger head for cutting thicker glass. Have converted into a true Toyo cutter fan.

I just started doing glass again after about 10 years.I kind of let it go because I was starting to have little problems cutting and gripping the glass.I was losing a lot of control with my old pencil style cutter when trying to cur small or curvy pieces.After some practicing on scrap I’ve found I have better control with this style now.It seems very well made,I know this brand has a good rep.Like some other reviewers have said,I wouldn’t put more than maybe 1/2 inch of oil in,cutters usually leak when full.I also store upright.

don't waste your money on other cutters like I did. This is the only one and worth the money. Doesnt leak and gives you a clean cut. love it.

The best glass cutter I have ever had....spend the extra for this (forget the lower price ones) you will not be sorry..

I learned the art of stained glass work more years ago than I care to remember. I was taught using the old ball end type cutter. Now that I'm older, I wanted something that would be a little easier on my hands and fingers and this cutter is it!To be honest, I'm having a little trouble transitioning to this new cutter. Old habits die hard. But the more that I use this cutter, the more I like it! Long term, I'm certain this was the best choice for me.

Excellent tool!
