   “YOUR ATTENTION PLEASE!! I will require your full and undivided attention”, says this knife when you are using it. Because this knife always works hot, it is always loaded when you put it in the operational mode. And because it is locked and loaded it packs more torque and leverage than the utility knives that retract. How many times did you bear down on the retractable knife to do serious cutting and have it pop back into its shell? This knife doesn’t back down. For that reason I pay attention and do my work and when re-positioning the material I’ll set the knife down when not actively cutting. I get a lot of boxes at my house when stuff I order off the web is delivered. It is handy to keep boxes around and some of them are strong and well made boxes and it’s a shame to dispose of them. But when I start to get too many and they become clutter, it’s time to cut them up and put them in recycle. This knife is “the cat’s meow” for the job.When not using it I ALWAYS stow the blade in the handle. The oversize wingscrew with large threads takes about 3 turns and the halves of the knife are quickly separated or in the same way reassembled.It comes with one blade. Next time you’re at HD pick up spares. They store in the handle. There’s a spring there so they don’t rattle around and get dull. There’s a hole in the end so you can tie it to a string,wire, rope or chain and keep it in the area where cutting would take place. Or so nobody can walk away with it. I didn’t know they made non-retractable utility knives until I saw this but they do have a very observable advantage. I like it. You’ll like it. But do, for all of our sakes use it carefully. This knife doesn’t want your blood on its hands,(If it had hands)
