Box cutters
on September 3, 2015
Posted by: Paula K.
I buy these box cutters all the time. They are a perfect size to keep in your pocket yet nice and durable. Not to mention to great price. I absolutely love them.
Although they may look nice the performance is lacking. A Box cutter should be a “no brainer” when using. This unit make you stop what you are doing and adjust the blade in its holder every time. I discovered this the first cut I tried to make on PLASTIC FILM. I was amazed I was having difficult. I had to stop and see what was going on. The stop on the slide to extend the blade fails to stop it so when you go to make the simplest cut the blade jumps. This is an “Inferior product”
This product is great. Gets the job done efficiently. Very sturday and safe. Highly recommended. Only downfall is that the blade cen get rusty rather quick (after 3 days or so.) But still good.
These come individually wrapped. Perfect for me to hand out to all office members to keep handy and have on theme to open boxes as they arrive. Great price point as well. Will remember these in the future when we need for our other office.
I bought these because I was tired of my employees losing/breaking the plastic cutters that are out there. These are a good quality inexpensive option. They aren't as user friendly as the other types out there but with some guidance - they work just fine. There are times when you have to push a little harder to "close" the blade - and you have to be care what you are pushing on to do so. If you are pushing on a wooden table you risk scratching it - be careful. We have several stainless steel tables so we most often use the edge of those or even the floor. I was concerned that they would slide to the open position too easily but that wasn't the case. The sleeve is a tight enough fit - so that's not an issue.
