## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is this knife any good for opening letters with?**
A: I would suggest using the Slice #00200 for opening letters as the blade is micro-ceramic and easily cuts through envelopes. This tool is best for cutting thicker materials like cardboard. // TEAM SLICE // Miami, Florida
