How to Use the OLFA CHN-1 Chenille Cutter
Place your layered fabric flat, choose one of the four channel-guide "feet" to set your chenille width, and glide the cutter along the fabric. The guides keep your cutting lines evenly spaced, and the blade cuts curves or straight lines with equal ease. No exposed blade edge adds extra safety during use.
How to Change and Advance the Blade
The CHN-1 is tool-free: no screwdriver needed to swap blades. Rotate or advance to any of the 24 blade edges as they dull — the double-honed black blade delivers four-channel cutting power and long edge life before replacement.
How Many Layers Can It Cut?
The CHN-1 is built for chenille work, which means cutting through multiple stacked fabric layers in a single pass. Match your layer count to your fabric weight — lightweight cottons stack higher, heavier textiles cut best in fewer layers.

Best Fit, Use Cases, and Comparisons
Best for quilters making rag quilts, chenille blankets, and textured textile projects. Compared to standard rotary cutters, the CHN-1's channel guides eliminate marking and measuring between cuts — a differentiator generic cutters don't offer. Alternative options exist, but none combine OLFA's blade quality with purpose-built chenille guides at this price.
