OLFA 9mm Stainless Steel Utility Knife (SVR-1) - Multi-Purpose Retractable Precision Knife w/ Snap-Off Blade, Replacement Blades: Any OLFA 9mm Blade

If I were paying full retail price on this product (which, actually, I did unfortunately), I would not give it five stars. Ive written a much more extensive review on the SVR-2, which is very similar, except that it locks which this knife does not. Moderate pressure will send the blade back inside the carrier, making it useful for some tasks... Less so for others. But, for the price this gets offered at, a great knife to keep around. The stainless blades that come with these are alright, the carbon steel blades Olfa sells are much nicer. But still, you cant go wrong at this price unless youre doing a lot of heavy-handed tasks. Brilliantly simple design, very sturdy, very easy to change blades and break off tips. A very smart product. Update: When I wrote this, the price was considerably less than the

The first one that I got was so good that I ordered another. Unfortunately the second one kind of sucks. The blade is too loose.

I was given one of these ten years ago and misplaced it. Had to have another. They are solidly made and reliable, much better than the plastic ones. I am buying yet another for a friend who is a plastic CNC fabricator.

I can’t say enough good things about this box cutter. My nephew showed me his and I liked it enough to try it. It’s fantastic! Sharp, sturdy and just feels good in my hand. The blade slides out with a positive “clicck” for each section of length so you know what depth you’re cutting. It exudes quality just holding it. I went back for several more and a package of replacement blades and threw out all my old disposable plastic type cutters. Never going back to them. I’m a heavy user of this Type of cutter and it’s the ONLY one I carry now.

Hands down best box cutter I used and years stays in Pocket well dont leave home without it.

They are small and great for cutting wallpaper

I had no problem with this blade so far so good for the money good

A must have for tinting!

I think this model received the Good Design award in Japan. I love this sleek design. This is my 2nd purchase (I lost it my original knife which I bout 1990).

Compact, sharp as Al Franken. Made in Japan. What else is there?
