Its ok for the price, but there are much much better knives (Bessey) for a few bucks more.
cons
- Very bulky and thick. Takes up a bunch of room and gets in the way when you try to use it
- You need a screwdriver to change blades, you need to take the knife apart for this.
- The blade retracts when you apply pressure to it - major con
pros
- Price
- Can store a few extra blades inside |
| Solid, smooth, ergonomic | 2009-11-06 | 5 / 5 |

| I use utility knives pretty frequently, and most suffer from clunky construction and rattly parts. This Irwin knife feels much more solid in my hand and is easier for me to handle when focusing on precision cuts. The button/slide for the blade also opens and closes with little effort and is smooth in both directions. Finally, the extra blades are stored inside the body in a clip so they don't rattle around. Overall it's a great knife and is much better to use than the standard design that's been around for years. |
| Great box cutter | 2009-06-16 | 5 / 5 |

I was looking for a cheap box cutter for my volunteer work. We distribute food at a food bank and so this cutter gets a lot of work and I was expecting it to get lost quickly. Everyone loves it since it is easier to spot than other grey/silver box cutters. It has cut a lot of tape, paper, industrial cling wrap, boxes, potato sacks and onion bag.
Used it a few months now and still not lost it amongst the chaos...mainly because of the color even with everyone borrowing it all the time. |

Like it.
I one for the office and one for the garage. Great tool. |

| It works great but when I first got it I had some trouble putting the blade in. You need a screwdriver to open the case, take out one of the blades and put it in. A cheaper one might be preferable for some people. |
