Comments about Soft-Kut Printing Blocks:

Learned how to carve "stamps" for printing on this material with speedball cutters and it was really fun! I am planning on using it to make stamps for my letterboxes now. It is quite floppy so you'll have to mount it on wood or something if you want to use it as a stamp. So easy to cut and the result is really nice!
Made this gift for my sister (image) using this product, made it using ink and a roller (if it's called that XP).

These blocks are super floppy- I mounted it to a piece of wood to make my prints. The rubber is really soft and easy to carve, but I found it to have inconsistent results when printing, and it did not hold up when I cleaned it after using oil-based inks. The good side was that it was easy to to carve, and very easy to cut to the size I needed. I will probably use all of what I ordered, but will order something else next time. Probably good for a small number of prints, or if you're looking for a quick and easy project.

This material is a little thin, but it is easy to carve. Captures good detail and prints well on textiles.

These are so easy to cut that you better be ready to waste the first block (although you can still use the other side). It takes some getting used to if your experience is with wood or linoleum. Skimming the tools across the surface works the best until you know what angle cuts the depth you want. Smaller cutting blades are best since it's all too easy to cut long and deep. Once I got used to them, I loved them.

Have used this soft-kut linoleum for a couple of years now. Selling and gifting prints. Kitchen cupboards each display an art work - New Orleans theme. Displayed at front door - finishing product with resin and glass mosiac.

This is the easiest material to use for block printing - cuts like butter. If you're careful and don't cut into it too deeply, you can use both sides. When I teach I have students work on linoleum and soft cut - most prefer the Soft-Kut!

I used the block once. It crumbled and some of the corners broke off, then when I washed it, it cracked in half. Bummed out

I saw a tv show with a very short demonstration of this soft kut linoleum - loved what I saw. Taught myself how to use it, and am making great "pictures". Beautiful pictures on each kitchen cabinet now - and at the front entrance to our home, on walls, given as gifts, etc. Fantastic.

Soft Kut blocks are a great way to teach students about the printmaking process. The set comes with cutting tools that are safe to use with third grade on up. These blocks make it easy to produce a nice print, and both sides can be used. I have only one complaint; that is, that the cutting tools are so poorly made these days. I have some I bought here a few years ago, and they were much sturdier. Before the lesson, I had to glue some of the nibs in, because they were so loose on the plastic handles. That helped prevent problems during the lesson. There is enough ink to use for another lesson. We used a variety of papers to vary the print. I would recommend this kit to anyone who wants to introduce printmaking to a group. I have used these blocks successfully with both adults and children.

This product is a somewhat softer than the "pink stuff" but is still a viable alternative. I use it to make rubber stamps and it carves and holds up under use well. I will use it again in the future.
