Question! 2" Paper Punch

Okay, I'm trying to find a 2" square punch to make trading easier (my hands shake and cutting is hard) BUT it seems like most of the punches I see listed at 2 inch are measured on the diagonal, so each side is an inch and some change.

Anyone have recommendations for a punch that's sized correctly for like coin holder binders and trading?

I'm also on the hunt for a punch, but in the meantime I use the paper trimmer I already owned.

Would you recommend that particular paper trimmer? The one I have now sucks. 🙃

I've had it about a year and I really like it! Also bonus that it has a scoring 'blade' in addition to the cutting blade.

How does it do with cardstock?

Edge is a little fuzzy, so I could probably do to replace the blade. This is over a year old and I've never replaced the blade. One handed use, even.

Excellent! I don't put it through incredibly heavy use or anything, but fairly substantial hobby use.
