Three of four issued have broken in the same place where the plastic end / blade cover snaps into the handle. The production area where used is a very repetitive assembly line where small cases are cut open (rather than flaps opened due to the design of these customer product cartons). I don't think the design is durable enough for this application.So sorry you had challenges with the blade covers on your 10400 box cutters - this was a known issue on a small percentage of units that has since been resolved - we are sending you out some replacement blade covers which should resolve the challenge. Thanks so much for your business - we appreciate it!! // team Slice // | So sorry you had challenges with the blade covers on your 10400 box cutters - this was a known issue on a small percentage of units that has since been resolved - we are sending you out some replacement blade covers which should resolve the challenge.

Very easy to use although I'm not sure what the other end is for. Better instructions.Thanks for taking the time to write a review - we appreciate it. The back end of the 10400 (manual retractable box cutter) is for extra blade storage, although most people don't use it since the blade lasts so long! You can see a demo of the back end blade storage compartment in this video of the 10503 (auto-retractable box cutter), which is the same as the 10400 manual box cutter except the blade retract button is "auto" vs. the 10400 "manual" : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qAjymTW-haQ | Thanks for taking the time to write a review - we appreciate it.

This is an excellent product. You don't have to hold the blade in place while using. Cuts well and smoothly. I would buy this again for sure. |
Learn how our customers reduce injuries and lower costs with Slice Manual Box Cutter.
When manufacturers try to create a safe box cutter, most focus on handle design. At Slice, we rethought both the handle and the blade. So while our unique handle keeps the blade away from your skin, our patented finger-friendly grind is safe to handle without gloves and doesn't require a sharps disposal box.
When you buy a box cutter from Slice, you're introducing yourself to a completely different kind of tool. Our handles are designed to provide a cutting guide, protect your fingers, and minimize blade exposure. Your strokes are safe and controlled, with reduced opportunity for accidents. You're only exposing enough blade to get the job done without unnecessarily endangering yourself or the contents of your box.
As the name suggests our box opener is ideal for corrugated. As a safety measure, the Slice 10400 exposes only enough blade to cut through double-walled corrugated. If you require a deeper blade, we suggest you try one of our utility knives. Slice tools are durable and strong and can handle a variety of materials such as plastics, tapes, clamshell packaging and more. If you require a piercing action to initiate your cut, try our 10408 pointed-tip ceramic replacement blades.
When you search "how to put a blade in a box cutter" you get as many answers as there are handle styles. Many require outside tools, safety gloves, and a fair bit of time. Slice replacement blades are easy to install without tools or gloves. Slide off the tip of the tool and replace the finger-friendly blade. And because our double-sided safety blades last up to 10 times longer than steel, you'll be replacing them less often, further reducing your risk of injury.
In independent third-party testing, Slice ceramic blades lasted an average of 11.2 times longer than comparable steel blades. That's because we use 100 percent zirconium oxide—second only to diamonds in hardness—for our blades. A harder blade material retains its edge longer. Our blades are also thicker than standard steel blades, which makes them less prone to breakage.
