Heavy-duty Knife

I'm a professional artist and these are the best X-Acto blade holders that I've ever used. Comfortable, sturdy, a rubber like grip handle, and so easy to secure the blade into the holder and release the blade after use. If you use X-Acto brand or X-Acto like (other brand) blades frequently or infrequently, I highly recommended this product!

Much easier to use and easier on the hands than my old metal craft knives. I love the chubby handle and comfort grip, as well as the fact that the blade still locks into place securely. Can't beat the price I paid, either, even with a craft store coupon (it was $2.46 when I purchased it). I'd rank it a 4.5 out of 5 as I do think it's a bit large to be making tight/precision cuts with, but overall, I really love it and think it works well.

I needed a craft knife that was easier to use and safer for the kids cutting out some papercraft stuff and I liked it well enough that I stole it back. I like the blade release with adjustable tension and it doesn't hurt your hands after using it for a while. I carved an 8x10 basswood panel with it

Holds blades very well, and is easy to replace. Nice shape to hold while working. Took off one star as the rubber grip has started to deteriorate within only a few months.

I do low-poly art which involves a lot of exact cutting. I was only able to cut a page or 2 before I would need a long break to let my tired and sore hand recover. This knife fixed that so I was able to cut pretty much as many pages as I wanted to at a time. The handle fits my hands (which I've been told are on the small side) very well and it reduces the down pressure needed to get a clean cut. I cut card stock with this and absolutely love it. The only cutting I do that is easier than this is with a machine.

I've had this craft knife since 2017 (it's April 2022 now). It has worked beautifully this whole time. I use it regularly in my scrapbooking and card making. The mechanism that holds the blade in place has only now begun to fail. I was trying to locate how to contact the seller so I can use my lifetime warranty however it's practically impossible to find so I'm just going to re-purchase. Good thing it's on sale right now!

Handy

I really like this knife handle more than any other hobby knifeand I've tried them all After a few days the rubber grip started to rub off which is extremely disappointing. Is this an awesome knife? Yes, is it heavy duty? Maybe, not the rubber though. I would still buy it again worn rubber is mostly an aesthetic problem more of a nuisance.

tip of the blade broke off on the first corner i try to cut, otherwise handle is okay

I was so disappointed by this. I was excited to get this for my birthday, thinking it's going to be stronger then my old #11 knife. The tip of the blade broke off within the first 10 minutes of using it and after a day of use the rubber grip tore apart.
