Utility Knife, DAT Series-X Portable Box Cutter, Fine Point Arts and Crafts Blade for Precision Cutting, with 10 Blade Pieces (White, 1 Cutter 10 Blades)

I use this in the office as a letter opener, it works really well for that application. The blade is really sharp, and the handle is comfortable to use.

I purchased this craft knife after finding positive reviews, and it’s a knife that fulfills its intended purpose perfectly. The feel in hand is smooth and stable, and it’s lightweight, which is great. The blade is sharp, and it comes with 10 extra blades, so I can use it with peace of mind. It's suitable for precise work beyond just box cutting, and I’m very satisfied with it.

Small and comfortable to use knife suitable for cutting out stencil on cardboard and many, many other purposes - Will not pull out of the body while m Normal aking a cut. The blade is pointed like X-Acto and can be easily broken off to get a ‘new’ sharp blade when needed. This is the best precision knife I have yet found! Is the only one I now use. Comes with replacement blades in a nice case.

This is the best little utility knife ever! So easy to use and very sharp!

I was tired of using regular craft/x-acto blades for my work- trimming and cutting plastics + other 3d printed parts. The problem is their round handles and poor blade angle optimization make them less than ideal tools for ergonomic cutting.The DAT knife, on the other hand, feels perfect. Paired with a good straight edge and cutting mat, it makes you feel invincible. The handle nestles perfectly into many different grip styles- with smooth injection molded plastics that feel quality and satisfying to the touch.Meanwhile, the blade angle relaxes your wrist and makes the knife far easier to balance, making pulling and pushing cuts equally easy to make.The housing and angle of the blade also transmit feedback from the blade to your wrist in a way I never thought was possible. This knife makes it a LOT easier to gauge the depth of a cut and feel resistance in the material.The combined effect is a knife that is pleasurable to use and easy to be incredibly precise with IF1. you are cutting on a flat-ish surface2. The material you are cutting through does not offer much in the way of resistance (construction paper/cardstock at most)3. You only place downward pressure on the blade.If you use this to cut plastics- you will have a bad time. This knife struggles with even the thinnest corrugated plastic board from Michael's.The problem lies in the design of the knife and the blades themselves. This handle does not adequately reinforce the blade against side-to-side motion during a cut, and the blades have FAR too much play in the back-and-forth direction- common with a majority of retractable knives.In short- it's perfect for paper, but it's a pass on plastic.

Well, I’ve been using box cutters all my life. Picked up the habit working in a warehouse. I always have numerous ones around the house. Not necessarily expensive ones since many of the cheaper plastic ones work just as well. UNTIL I decided to try these extreme angle blades and cutter. Wow, what a difference. The effort required to cut through anything is greatly reduced by the increased angle of the blade. These just slide through cardboard boxes, of which I have many due to Amazon existing. They do require different blades than the traditional style (which I unfortunately have a bunch of) but they’re worth it. They feel good in the hand, made of solid higher grade plastic with a metal sleeve that the blade retracts into. Lightweight and looks good even. Highly recommended. But beware, they’re sharp!

I can’t even remember why I bought this. Why did I buy this? Do I even need it?No, but I have it now, and surely I will be grateful when the moment comes and I must pick up the blade as the prophecies foretold.

I finally found the craft tool that checks all my boxes. It's a precision cutter, designed to fit comfortably in my hand, slices perfect and tiny cuts in every paper I've tried so far, retracts safely and easily, sits in a pen holder ready for use, has a clever pop-off device to SAFELY break away the old blade, comes with a bunch of replacement stainless steel blade strips, has a quick twine cutter, arrives in an attractive, giftable box (and I do plan on gifting this to friends)...I could go on and on. Bye bye hand cramps! Bye bye all those other name brand cutters with scary covers and odd blade positions. I would gladly buy from USA makers if they could just pay attention to details like this maker does. They had their place and time, and to be fair, other styles may be more suitable for super heavy duty cutting, but this tool does what I need for my crafts, and I always feel safe and comfortable doing it!
