OLFA 45 mm Split-Cover Quick-Change Rotary Cutter
This model has a split cover.
What this tool is for
This model has a split cover. You can uncover the side you want to use while leaving the opposite edge guarded. Compare it with the Splash if you prefer a simpler single cover, or with the squeeze-handle DX if automatic retraction is the feature you need. The RTY-2/NS is intended for right- and left-handed users.

Fit and buying advice
OLFA specifies a 45 mm tungsten steel wheel and a sliding blade lock. Select replacement blades by the exact compatible series. The shared 45 mm measurement across OLFA handles does not give every model the same decorative-blade compatibility.
Questions about this tool
Which version has the split cover?
Look for RTY-2/NS or maker item 1079060.
Can I leave one side covered for a straight cut?
The maker’s instructions show how the split cover lets you choose one side while leaving the other in place.
Should I choose this for pinking cuts?
If you want to use the PIB45-1 pinking wheel, compare the 45 mm RTY-2/DX, which the manufacturer names for that blade.
