Review: Well made, great purchase - Great item
Review: Basic, functional box cutters - I have been using this style of box cutter for nearly 20 years and recently ordered two cases for my employees after our company inexplicably removed all utility knives from our approved supply list. These are basic, no-nonsense box cutters. They are lightweight, slim and fit comfortably in the coin pocket of my jeans. The replacement blades are inexpensive and easy to find. Comfortable to use. Others have complained that the box cutter is too loose. This is a common issue with this style of knife and there are a couple easy solutions to that. 1. Set the cutter on the ground (seam side up) and stomp it lightly with your heel. 2. Put a slight bend in the blade holder, about halfway down. Both of these steps increase the friction and make it less likely that the knife will open in your pocket. If it's too tight and won't open easily, remove the blade holder and stick something long and flat (like a butter knife) into the sheath. Work it around until it's loosened to your liking. These are exactly as expected and I will continue to purchase these for my employees.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great quality, durable, convenient box cutters.
*by P***K on September 6, 2015*

In my long ago youth, I used to work retail and we had box cutters just like these. They are surprisingly useful for so many different things and oddly difficult to find (at least I could find them at standard hardware stores) until I found them here on Amazon. I've never quite found anything else that is as effective, simple, and convenient as these box cutters. These have easily replaced single blades and are quite sturdy. I find the size ideal as they aren't too big and can be easily and conveniently slipped into pockets or wherever you might want them without being cumbersome. Simple sliding blade keeps it safe. The only real downside is the same thing that makes them convenient makes them easy to misplace. But, they are also cheap, so that's no big deal. I just get more. I did notice a lot of concerns about colors in other reviews. I got a good mix of yellow, red, white, and maybe others. I don't remember. I don't really care about the colors at all, but unit was a mix if someone else does,
