| Defensive Knives & Other Weapons Most people that carry a gun also carry a knife or other weapon as a backup. Finding a good blade is often harder than finding a good pistol or revolver. |

Hey ~ These Are Great
I bought one at the hardware store a few days ago.
I bought it as a tool & not a weapon. It has a pocket clip on the other side. It's a Sheffield pocket clip type locking folder that takes standard Utility Knife Blades. It's GREAT for those stinky little frequent, oddball, cutting jobs that constantly mess up the keen edge & point on your good folding knife. You just reverse the blade when it gets dull & then pop in a new one. I think I paid $10.00 for mine. Buy one...you'll actually use it! ![]()

i found one very similar. It has a pocket clip and a nylon sheath with a pocket clip and holds several extra blades. Very handy indeed. I think I paid $12 for it.

Nice one. Much better than the standard box cutters I use. Too much pressure and the blade retreats into the handle. Since Craftsman makes one I'll probably get it at Sears, since I have one around the corner from the office.

It's too bad that they didnt design them so you could use a bit more of the actual cutting edge length.
It's designed to be more of a folding traditional utility knife. It would be better if they designed one to be more of an ordinary folder with disposable blades. I sure have been using mine "as is" though.

I could use one of those so I would save the blade of my Benchmade when opening boxes.

For some strange reason
Box type cardboard is extremely tough on a fine edge.
Cutting cardboard boxes really dulls an edge very quickly.
