Craft Blades (Straight Edge, Rounded Tip)

What Do People Use Craft Knives For?

People use craft knives for many laboratory and craft-related applications, such as precision cutting and gentle scraping. These hand-held precision tools are extremely versatile.

When it comes to craft knife blades, sizes don’t vary greatly. What sets Slice^® craft blades apart is their finger-friendly^® edge, which isn’t found on any other blade—neither metal nor ceramic. In addition, Slice uses an advanced ceramic material, which never rusts and does not require a special oil coating to maintain.
