Is there a guide to show exactly where the blade is going to cut?** A: While there is no guide to show where the blade is going to cut, on the rolling style trimmers it is very easy to see where the cut will be. It is just beyond the clear plastic clamp that the paper slides under. You can roll the cutting head slightly toward your material and see where that exact cut will be. **Q: Will this cut 13 mil banner?** A: Hi, thank you for your question. This is a list of what the Dahle 448 will cut: Cardboard, Cardstock, Chipboard, Construction Paper, Foil, Illustration Board, Label Stock, Laminator Film, Mat Board, Paper, Photo Paper, Photographic Film, Plastic Film, Specialty Paper, Vellum, VinylHave a lovely day! **Q: Where so can I order a replacement blade for a Dahle 448 trimmer? The blade on the unit in my department photography studio is chipped and dull.** A: Please call Dahle North America, Inc. if you need to purchase a replacement blade. (800) 995-1379 **Q: What is the maximum thickness you can cut?** A: According to the product description its capacity is "30 sheets." I measured our office paper and that's about 4mm, or about 1/8 of an inch. The description I found of the replacement cutting head for the 440 said that it cuts up to 7 sheets of paper at a time, so it might require 4 passes. ## Frequently Bought Together - Dahle 448 Premium Rotary Trimmer, 51" Cut Length, 20 Sheet Capacity, Self-Sharpening, Automatic Clamp, German Engineered Paper Cutter - New Sunstar Kadomaru Pro, Corner Cutter (S4765036) (Kadomaru Pro) with Authentic Hologram US, UK, EU Only - Premium Printable Vinyl Sticker Paper for Inkjet Printer and Laser - 20 White Matte Sticker Paper Waterproof - Durability Adhesive Paper 8.5 x 11, Fast Dry, Holds Ink Well, Great for Cutting Machines --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.kw/products/23410892-448-premium-rotary-trimmer-51-cut-length-20-sheet-capacity](https://www.desertcart.com.kw/products/23410892-448-premium-rotary-trimmer-51-cut-length-20-sheet-capacity) --- *Product available on Desertcart Kuwait* *Store origin: KW* *Last updated: 2026-05-13*
