DIYSELF Heavy Duty Retractable Box Cutter 2 Pack

Overview

The DIYSELF box cutter is a retractable utility knife sold in a 2 pack, with a metal body and metal handle. It measures 5.8 inches long and weighs 69.2 grams, built for general box and package opening.

This is a straightforward retractable utility knife rather than a fixed blade design, sold as a pair rather than a single unit. The all metal construction, in place of the plastic housings common on budget cutters, is the main differentiator called out in the specifications.

• 2 pack of retractable utility knives
• Metal body and handle
• 5.8 inches long
• Weighs 69.2 grams

Who it's for

Fits anyone who wants a couple of small retractable cutters on hand for opening boxes and packaging around the house or at a small business. Less suited to heavier cutting jobs like carpet or thick material, where a larger fixed blade knife would hold up better.

Pros and cons

Performance notes

The metal handle and body add durability over plastic bodied cutters at a similar size, while the light 69.2 gram weight per unit keeps it easy to carry in a pocket or drawer. At 5.8 inches, it is sized for light, controlled cuts rather than heavy material.
