Basic letter opener
on March 3, 2014

Thiis is a very basic letter opener...but we like it because of that. There are no razor edges and it works just fine to open regular envelopes and heavier larger envelopes. I had help from an employee finding the letter opener aisle and he pointed out this particular letter opener and it was also the least expensive.
Hard to review as it is just a letter opener. But it works fine and I am glad I bought it since I was using my scissors to open my mail (which really was a pain).
I needed a letter opener for a new job where I open a lot of customer payments. Found this one at staples and I am very thrilled with my purchase. It fits comfortably in my hand. Its shape makes it easy to make a nice slice to open the envelopes. The price was great too.
Plain design but strong. Very efficient and easy to find in my desk pen & pencil cup! Somehow I have lost two fancy brass letter openers and a number of the hand-held blue plastic give-away openers. I believe this should be far more difficult to lose.
I have bought too many of these letter openers to count throughout the years. They are very sturdy and handy. I prefer them over the openers with blades. They are often "misplaced" and found among other peoples possessions. I admittedly use them for many more things than opening letters. Often times they double as a screwdriver box opener and even a hole punch. Although sturdy enough to tackle any letter or package they do not hold up as well when used as a screwdriver. I only wish they would come in different colors to jazz up my desk a little
