X-ACTO X5082 Knife Set with Case

Overview

The X-ACTO X5082 pairs a 2.5 inch high carbon steel blade with a molded plastic handle, built for fine detail cutting rather than heavy stock removal. It suits hobby and craft work where blade sharpness matters more than handle weight.

X-ACTO's numbering system covers a wide range of blade shapes and handle styles, so shoppers should match this listing against the X5082 model number rather than assume it matches a knife they have used before. The listing does not state whether extra blades are included, so buyers planning ongoing use should check pack contents before ordering.

• High carbon steel blade
• Plastic handle
• 2.5 inch blade length
• 10.08 ounce item weight

Who it's for

Fits crafters, modelers, and anyone doing detail cuts on paper, mat board, foam, or thin plastic. Less suited to jobs that call for cutting thick or dense material repeatedly, where a heavier handle gives more control.

Pros and cons

Performance notes

The blade is high carbon steel, a material chosen in cutting tools for its ability to take and hold a sharp edge rather than for corrosion resistance. The plastic handle keeps the tool manageable in hand for detail work, though it will flex more under heavy pressure than a metal handle would.
