So, to summarize the reasons why this tape dispenser is the worst of its kind:
• The blade fails to penetrate the tape, causing excess tape to come out and get tangled.
• The failure of the blade invites serious injury as you try to find workarounds to get the dispenser to cut.
• The tape sticks to the metal tab that keeps the tape pressed against the roller, causing it to jam.
• The tape sticks to the flat area where the handle meets the dispenser body, again causing it to jam.
Looking at the 130 1-star reviews (as of April 18, 2022), which account for NEARLY A THIRD OF ALL REVIEWS, I can see that I am far from alone in my assessment of this ill-conceived weapon of war. I can also see that the issues are not a new development but in fact date back at least SIX YEARS. So, not only is this thing horrible, but it's been horrible for a long time, and apparently no effort has been made to change that.
Scotch/3M, if you're listening, read the room. Fix this abomination before someone gets seriously injured.
Yes, it's that bad.
Really, don't buy this tape dispenser. It's horrible and dangerous.

I've been waiting for my 3M to break so I can replace it. I've been waiting 15 years...
