22 S&S HOME SUPPLIES LTD. T/A OLFA UK Every artist needs at least one stand-out cutter in their tool kit. OLFA’s SAC-1 Graphics Precision, Auto-Lock Knife is just that. Complete with a 9mm sharp-angled blade, it gives you a precise cut every time. The SAC-1 features an ultra-slim, lightweight, stainless steel body and a 30° angled blade. When cutting from typical desk height, this acute angle ensures that the sharpest point of the blade comes into contact with the surface, for ultimate precision. Cutting accuracy is enhanced further by an auto-lock mechanism that holds the blade firmly in place, preventing even minimal movement. The SAB-10 blade is made from high-quality Japanese steel that gives you exceptional sharpness and superior edge retention. It comes with seven segments which you can ‘snap off like a chocolate bar’ to reveal a brand new, honed edge. A simple, quick snap replaces a blunt edge with a super-sharp one, especially important for avoiding tearing or dragging when cutting paper. The back of the knife has a built-in pocket clip that also doubles up as a blade snapper so you can snap on the go. The SAC-1 is a must-have for art projects that involve cutting paper, cardboard, plastics, foam board and more. +44 (0)20 8204 1422 www.olfauk.com GROVES The rainbow continues to be a symbol of hope and we love this stunning all wicker rainbow sewing basket with a plastic tray inside, twin lids and double handles.
