WHAT IS A WAX BOARD?

A traditional tool passed down through generations of Chinese paper-cutting artists and now embraced by contemporary creators.

Wax boards are specifically designed for paper cutting and are ideal for multi-layer cutting and fine-detail carving.

⸻
WHY USE A WAX BOARD?

1. Multi-Layer Cutting

Carve multiple layers of paper at once, making manual paper cutting more efficient.

2. Easier on Your Hands

Less pressure is needed when cutting thicker or multiple layers of paper, making the process easier on your hands.

3. Blade Protection

The soft wax surface helps reduce impact on the blade and may help extend its life.

4. Reusable Surface

Simply smooth the surface and use it again and again. Minor marks won’t affect performance, and with proper care, the wax board can last for 5-10+years.

Note:
Minor marks will not affect performance. With repeated use, the surface naturally develops a smooth working texture.
