It is very convenient to cut leather or fabric with such a knife, as well as cut sheet materials like linoleum, cardboard, pvc plastic, etc. This reinforced construction knife separates from a conventional clerical knife a number of design features. So, the handle of this tool is made of high-quality shockproof plastic with a non-slip coating and is equipped with a built-in compartment for storing blades (it is opened by shifting the lock), as well as a clip for attaching the knife to a pocket or belt. The design of the knife has a rubberized "heel" for the thumb to rest, which greatly improves the usability. In addition, this tool is folding - the working part is removed into the handle by pressing the built-in recess. The blade locking mechanism is simple and yet reliable.
Included with the knife are 5 replacement blades made from the analogue of Japanese steel S5: one already installed and 4 hidden in the handle. To replace the blade, it is enough to raise the upper bracket lock of the locking mechanism. It is important to understand that the blades from a conventional stationery knife will not work, and therefore, if the complete supply runs out, you can purchase a set of 100 blades in a convenient organizer for such trapezoidal knives here.
The dimensions of the tool and blades are as follows:
• length of a knife with an installed blade: 165 mm;
• knife width: 30 mm;
• knife height: 20 mm;
• blade length: 61 mm (protrudes from the latch by about 30 mm);
• blade width: 20 mm;
• blade thickness - 0.5 mm.
The knife is quite light (~ 128 gr.), It is very convenient in the hand, the workmanship is at a very acceptable level. Sometimes a marriage occurs, but with the seller this problem is solved. In fact, this knife is an exact copy of the construction knife from the company Bessey, but their price varies by almost 4 times.
