too light

Letter opener is too thin too light. No "heft" when you pick it up. Narrow blade is just "ok." but overall weight and apparent "strength" of handling is meager.
I have used this product letter opener several times before. when you open mail sort and distribute as I do it is more professional to have the top of the envelopes opened smoothly no jagged edges. Purchase a letter opener to also prevent paper cuts on your hands.
Something about letter openers always reminds me of accounts of 19th century dandies and the daggers they had in their boots a frequent plot device in romantic novels.
