CloverButton Hole Cutter

The precision of this tool is way better than using a seam ripper or a razor. If you plan on making any button holes do yourself a favor and just buy this.

I love that this button hole cutter is made in Japan. It looks and feels great. I’ve used it several times in just a few days and I’m pleased my purchase. It doesn’t distort the button holes like a seam ripper and I don’t have to worry about slicing thru fabric outside the button hole.

This company makes very good tools for sewing. The buttonhole cutter is no exception. I bought myself one years ago and gifted this to my daughter. Wr both love it!

Sharp and exactly what I needed. The chisel ground blade easily cuts through multiple layers of wool to make even buttonholes.

Wanted one of these for a long time. Finally got it and it works like a charm! Thanks for yet another great tool, Clover!

This is the most perfect tool made for cutting button holes...I used to use tiny scissors but this works so much better; it is more like a puncture action and it works superbly. Easier and better than scissors.This tool is not used like I thought...I thought it was a tool that you would use like a razor blade...that you would puncture the fabric with the point, and then pull towards you to cut. But it is not like that...the blade on this is sort of square shaped and you push it down onto the fabric between the threads of the button hole and push it to make the cut.One other point...this tool is extremely SHARP. I have this obnoxious, rambunctious puppy, but please be extremely careful about where you leave it. My puppy is very attracted to all of my sewing tools. She has grabbed pin cushions full of pins that I have had to pull out of her mouth, etc. She goes after anything that has a "handle" on it. If you have any small children, or an obnoxious puppy like mine, be very careful where you leave this tool. The blade on it is extremely sharp, which is why it is so effective in cutting your button holes. There is a vinyl slip cover that goes over it when not in use which I would be sure to keep on at all times when not using it. This is a really great little tool.

This is the best product for button holes on the market. Easy to use and does a perfect job every time. fits your hand easily and you do not have to put a lot of pressure to cut. Clover products are top notch.

I have a button hole cutter, years old, that came with a piece of wood, to be used under the button hole for cutting. The size of the piece of wood is 2/8 thick, 11/4 wide, 21/2 inches long. I wouldn't know how to use this cutter without the wood. I would think this could easily fit in with the cutter.

works as expected. cuts clean and easy. good product.

This isn't exactly what I imagined. I thought that it was shaped to cut the entire buttonhole.Instead it is a flat blade, almost chisel-like. I tried it on my latest garment though and I am pleasantly surprised. It cuts cleanly and easily, all I had to do was cut close to each long edge then using my sharps snip between the 2 cuts. It really cuts out the hassle of slowly cutting along the buttonhole stitches. If you want I think you could get away with using it in the middle to cut a single hole. This will allow a button through okay but I'm just picky and like to have no threads showing.

Wife loves it. She's happy, I'm happy.

Have been looking for one of these for a while. Excellent tool, prevents me from cutting through stiches when opening a buttonhole after sewing it.

I bought a different one before which did not work, but this one does the job and I am happy with it
