The set consists of 3 high-quality cutter knives, 10 precise SK5 blades and a practical storage box.
One of the greatest strengths of the utility knife is its maximum lifespanr thanks to the high-quality aluminum housing, which significantly more robust is as market standard Plastic cutter knife.
The particularly sharp precision blades made of robust SK5 carbon steel are durable thanks to the additional oil film stainless and provide extra precise Cuts.
Another advantage is the ergonomic anti-slip handle, which makes it almost impossible to slip when cutting. As our practical test shows, the cutter knife is ideal for cardboard, construction foam and wallpaper.
In addition, the utility knife has a practical break-off tool that makes it easy to remove blunt blade elements and makes it particularly easy to change them.
