I have been crafting holiday town models and decorations for the past couple of years. While I look forward to the result, I enjoy the process thoroughly. Not to be dramatic but the incompetence of ordinary craft knives and cutters is the bane of my existence. The difficulty of maneuvering curves, cutting through thick and hard surfaces, and the fear of the knife snapping under pressure are ever-present.
So naturally when I came across Hanboost ultrasonic cutter, I was intrigued. After learning more about it, I am confident to say that it is the ultimate cutter I need in my DIY kit. Or any other DIYer would.
The Hanboost C1 is a powerful wireless cutter with ultrasonic 40,000 vibrations per second. The lightweight and portable cutter can slice through almost any craft material with surgical precision, keeping you stress-free as you unleash your creativity. It works wondrously on resin, plastic, acrylic, PVC, wood, and even gypsum, cutting and carving with paper-like ease. So no matter what your crafting style and medium is, the Hanboost has got your back.
Most of my designs have curves or tight patterns, which are impossible to cut with simple craft cutters without any errors. Sometimes, my hand cramps up with the effort of holding the device or it gets away from me to cut where it shouldn’t. Another thing that irks me is that the process sometimes ends up with chipped or shredded edges due to friction while cutting.
To that accord, the ultrasonic cutter comes in a pen-shaped design with a titanium cutting head. It makes it effortless to maneuver without any obstructions or breaks in free-flowing cutting patterns. Moreover, it eliminates the issue of friction thanks to the high-frequency vibrations that provide you with smooth surfaces.
The 30-degree angle blade tip provides exact control over the cutting depth and range required for any given project. It helps with cutting out small models (paper or any other material) with accuracy and minimal error.
The user-friendly design of the Hanboost ultrasonic cutter is great for 3D printing DIYers, too. It meticulously removes supports and refines complex details swiftly to give you a flawless product whether you are making a miniature figurine or an elaborate model.
However, the best aspect is the cordless design, providing freedom to use it anywhere, anytime. Compared to almost 99 percent of ultrasonic cutters in the market, which are corded, Hanboost provides ease of mobility. Instead of clumsy wires, it uses a 3000mAh battery, chargeable via a USB-C cable offering 2-3 hours of nonstop use.
Its stylish metal body has a luxurious feel and resists oxidation, making it a durable tool in your DIY kit. Moreover, the Hanboost C1 only weighs 205g (7.2 oz) and comes with a sleek case, making it easier to tuck in your bag without taking up much space.

Now let’s get to the function of the cutter. It has three power settings to adjust to your cutting needs. There is a built-in LED light around the cutter head to illuminate the workspace ensuring defined cutting in low-light conditions. Unlike its heavy counterparts, the device offers a completely noise-free crafting experience.
You need to press the power button for 2 seconds to turn it on, guaranteeing there is no accidental activation. It automatically shuts down after 5 minutes of inactivity to prolong the battery life.
After many projects and cutting sessions, if the blade feels blunt, you can easily replace it. There is a hidden hex wrench storage allowing a blade replacement, which you can find at a local retail store, on Amazon, or Hanboost website.
It is currently up for crowdfunding on Kickstarter: you can get it for a 40 percent discount on an early bird price of $109. It is worth noting that most ultrasonic cutters do not support wireless design and cost over $250.
So if you are on the hunt for the perfect craft knife, the Hanboost ultrasonic cutter is your best bet. I may have to struggle with my Christmas decoration crafts this year but I am going to have my Hanboost by March 2025.
