Whether you’re engaged in woodworking, leather trimming, or simply cutting paper, the Utility Knife is your ultimate companion to complete the task with precision, efficiency, and style. Its magnetic ruler attachment on the back allows you to carry a single object with dual functionality, eliminating the need for additional weight and space consumption.

OLFA Snap Knife

Using the wide blade from OLFA, it’s easier to perform the cutting, slicing and trimming with top safety and solid control. Utility Knife is perfect for both the basic cutting and the ones that require more sharpness and precision.

Enhances ease of operation and ergonomic comfort, providing a hand feel reminiscent of a hobby knife.

45° Inclination Opening

Ensures clear visibility, even when the blade is slightly extended. Ideal for box opening and safeguarding merchandise from scratches.

Thin Yet Sturdy Body

The real challenge lies in maintaining a slim profile without compromising on stability. The thin yet sturdy body achieves precise blade length control, allowing confident operation with both short and long blades for various purposes.

Customized Screw Slider

To secure the knife in movement, we designed a screw slider with a retro touch to stabilize the blade. 

This design allows you to operate with ease and safety, even with one hand! Push out, secure and release the blade is quick and simple.

CNC Treated Seamless Opening

Instead of applying the existing mold for most utility knives, we want to further elevate the stability when using our Utility Knife. Through the CNC process, we designed a customized sleeve that wraps around the blade seamlessly, the opening is thin enough to secure the blade during big movements.

15° Curvature Ruler

On the back of the Utility Knife is a super thin ruler with featherweight. We designed a 15° curve to prevent your finger being cut when cutting and you’ll be able to pick it up easily from any surface.

Blade Snapper & Dual-Scale Measurement

The ruler comes with a dual scale in cm/inch measurements, great for measuring for small items. The ruler also serves as a tool to snap off the blade, easy to hold and bend.

Built-In Magnet

With the embedded magnet, you can easily place Utility Knife on any metal surface such as the side of the desk, cabinet, fridge etc., making it faster to reach when in need.

Utility Knife is a must-have tool for all the fellow designers. It makes your process of creation efficient and safe, and your work station aesthetic.

Scissors are meticulously designed in a minimalist style, focusing solely on the most essential factors to ensure intuitive practicality. They possess a versatile functionality, as they can also serve as a box cutter when held in reverse.

Magnetic Base
