Knamoda Mini Small Hole Puncher Pink Color, 10 Sheet Paper Hole Puncher Capacity Single Hole Puncher for Office Use Or Gift for Students (Pink)

Works great & compact

This hole punch is constructed much better than I was expecting at this price point. The casing appears to be 2mm ABS plastic, but the punch mechanism is all metal. The punch itself is an inverted V style, the edges of the hole punching in first, both making their way to the middle to complete the hole. This greatly reduces the effort needed to punch holes. 10 pages at a time is accurate, and you can even do card stock. The jaw depth is just a hair under 12mm on center, which is about right to make consistent depth punches for things like 3 hole binder pages. The top (or bottom) of the hole punch is clear and you can actually see the hole while punching, so if you want to mark a spot on paper and hit it dead center you can. The clear section holds all the punched paper holes and was easy to empty as you just push it from the jaw opening area and it slides open.The only things I can complain about is that one, it sits in a 'opened' state, there is no latch or anything to keep it closed and compact. The packaging at least comes with a plastic band that you can use to keep it closed for storage but I would have liked an integrated solution. Second is the lever arm, which is completely made of plastic. I could see a scenario where the holes in the lever arm get stretched or deformed if you try to punch through something too difficult. Though, if that were to happen I would presume the punch itself would be damaged and you would need a new one anyway.

It’s little, cute and it works great!

Seems sturdy enough, and looks very nice.I don't mind that it stays in the open position, but I broke a nail the first time I tried to open it to get the punched holes out, and I did take off a star for that, as I found no hint that there is some non-forceful way to open it, even though practice made it a little easier/quicker. I don't know how long the 5 little tabs holding it so diligently will hold up to repeated opening and closing, but it seems fine, so far.If it opened as easily as my crafting shape punchers, it would easily get 5 stars. I would still recommend it to someone who doesn't mind the little fuss required when it is time to dump the punched bits out.

This little hole punch exceeded my expectation. I knew it was small in size, but I hadn't anticipated how easily it would punch a piece of paper. Using it to put a hole in one piece of paper was a breeze; it was so smooth and felt as though I barely exerted any pressure. The description on Amazon said it would punch up to 10 pages, so I did that as well, and that was easy. Though I keep forgetting to try it using only one finger, as a photo on the product description shows, there's no doubt in my mind one finger is all you need for punching through 1, 3 or even 5 sheets. Who knows, maybe one finger is all that's needed for the 10 sheets - in fact, yes, I think it is all you'd need. This comes in several colors - as you can see from the photos I chose the light pink which is very nice looking. I wouldn't mind having another one of these (probably the blue one) so I'd have one for home and one for office. It takes up so little space. It does stay open, as you can see from the photos, but you could either keep the little clear acetate that came with it to keep slip back on it to keep it closed between uses, or put a rubber band or such around it, if you wanted to have it take even less space than it already does. There's a plastic see through cover on the bottom that captures the paper holes it punches, which you remove to empty when you see that it's getting full. This is sooooo much nicer and easier than the usual, ugly silver hand held single punches we're used to that, with their longer handles, take up much more space. Need a singular hole punch? Then try this one.

This cute little punch really worked quite well. It's very small and compact, and comes in several pretty colors rather than the usual old-fashioned silver metal punch. It punches the holes very easily, with very little hand pressure needed, and keeps the holes neatly contained in the see-through plastic compartment. That compartment, however is horrible to try to empty. I tried every which way to pry it off and was unsuccessful. Finally resorted to using the edge of a butter knife to pop the compartment open. It works equally well on regular weight paper or basic cardstock, and I even punched a hole in a blank for making your own air freshener, which is about as thick as a thin cardboard bar coaster.

This works really well. Nice clean cuts. The deepest it will punch is 1/2” from the edge of the paper to the center of the hole. Removing the plastic piece to dump the cut holes isn’t very easy, and I ended up spilling some, but it’s not enough of an issue for me to remove any stars.

This is better than I was expecting. Punches out clean holes and catches the cutouts in a space with a clear window so you can know when to empty it out. Said compartment can be a little difficult to open the first time (it kind of stuck) but it wasn't so bad on subsequent attempts.
