45 mm is what I use the most often but I have one in every except the 60 mm. I am told the 60 mm is great when you cut more layers but I like the accuracy of cutting single layers (just me) so I never bothered to get one.

I never thought about the control aspect of the blades. Someone sold me a 60 mm rotary cutter a few years back, so that is what I used without thinking about the control. I think I'll get a 45 mm and try it out. Sometimes a 60 mm blade does present control issues. Thanks everyone!

I had always used a 45, then someone gave me a 60 and I started using it. Couldn't find it quickly one day and grabbed the 45-it felt very strange going back to the 45. I now use whichever one is handy.

I prefer the 60mm for most uses because it is easier to cut through multiple layers. I found, though, that it does not fit particularly well into the shape-cut rulers, so I will change to a 45mm for that type of cutting.
