Shoutout to the guy in my guild who said to use a bone folder for scoring instead of a dull knife
I used a dull knife for scoring on my first 10 projects and the paper always tore, but after switching to a bone folder for my last 3 books, the folds are crisp and perfect every single time.

That "crisp and perfect every time" feeling is real. I used to fight with a butter knife for scoring, and my paper looked chewed up. The bone folder's rounded edge just glides without catching. Total game changer for making clean lines on cardstock too.

Yeah, that "chewed up" paper look is too real. My buddy tried using the back of a spoon for scoring gift tags and they all tore. He finally got a bone folder and said it was like night and day for his projects.

Scoring both sides of the fold prevents tearing pretty well too.
