Slice® 10528 utility knife blades have a pointed tip for cuts that require a piercing action. As with all Slice safety blades, our 10528 blades are non-sparking, non-magnetic, chemically inert, feature no oil coating, and never rust. Our proprietary finger-friendly® edge is safe to the touch, reducing injuries and lowering costs. These blades are compatible with several Slice handles: the 10550, 10554, 10558, 10562 and 10564 utility knives; the 10591 and 10593 scrapers; and the 10585 Manual Carton Cutter.

Compared with standard blades (that’s steel or traditional ceramic), the answer is yes. When you search “how to change a utility knife blade”, you learn that the process is often dangerous. Overly sharp blades leave your hands vulnerable to injury.
Because we developed a proprietary finger-friendly edge for our ceramics, handling a Slice ceramic blade is less dangerous than handling a traditional ceramic or steel utility knife blade. Our manufacturing process creates an edge that effectively cuts material but is safe to the touch.
Slice utility knife replacement blades are made from hard zirconium oxide. That, along with our manufacturing process, is why our blades hold their edge, on average, 11.2 times longer than steel. This means you’ll be handling your blade much less often, which also reduces the chance of injuries.
The best utility knife blades will depend on your application. For most cuts, our 10526 (rounded tip) blades will do the job. The rounded tip provides an added layer of safety against accidental puncture wounds. For some materials, though, a pointed tip is required. A pointed tip initiates a clean cut with a piercing action and is best used for materials like shrink wrap, laminating sheets and plastic banding.
