Rustic home made Crab ravioli
A pizza cutter and a fork does a better job than a specialised ravioli cutter

Ravioli is a type of filled pasta composed of a filling sealed between two layers of thin pasta dough.

The filling may be meat-based, fish-based, or cheese-based. Ravioli can be rectangular, triangular, half-moon or circular in shape. Other traditional Italian fillings include ricotta mixed with grated cheese and vegetables such as spinach, Swiss chard, or nettles or they may be a purée made of potatoes, mushrooms, pumpkin, chestnut or artichokes.

I've tried all sorts of ravioli cutters and I find that a pizza cutter and a fork (to seal the edges) is by far the easiest way to make ravioli.
