OLFA 60 mm Straight-Handle Rotary Cutter

What this tool is for

Choose this straight-handle cutter for broad straight cuts when you prefer a manual blade cover. Slide the cover to use the 60 mm wheel and return it to the covered position between tasks. If you want the blade to retract when you let go, compare the RTY-3/DX with the same wheel diameter.

Fit and buying advice

The RTY-3/G is identified as item 9653. OLFA lists the 60 mm wheel for thicker fabrics and rates its cotton capacity separately. For small curves and small template pieces, compare a smaller cutter before relying on the size of the 60 mm wheel.

Questions about this tool

Why buy the straight handle if the DX uses the same diameter?

Compare how you prefer to operate the guard. The DX uses a trigger; this model has a separate cover you move by hand.

Does 60 mm describe blade diameter or handle length?

It describes the wheel. Use that number when matching a replacement.

Which size should I compare for small curves?

Look at the 28 mm quick-change cutter when your work involves frequent tight turns.
