Starex Utility Knife Paper Cutter With Blades

Description

Overview 

• A utility knife is type of knife used for general manual work purposes. Such knives were originally fixed-blade knives with durable cutting edges suitable for rough work such as cutting cordage, cutting/scraping hides, butchering animals, cleaning fish scales, reshaping timber, and other tasks.
• Utility knives are small utility knives used as precision-oriented tools for finer, more delicate tasks such as carving and papercutting.Today, the term “utility knife” also includes small folding-, retractable- and/or replaceable-razor blade knives suited for use in the general workplace or in the construction industry.
• The latter type is sometimes generically called a Stanley knife, after a prominent brand.
