Utility knives, craft knives, scissors and replacement blades cut everything from cardboard to veneer. Snap‑off knives by Olfa provide fresh edges quickly, while heavy‑duty scissors trim leather and fabric. Always keep spare blades on hand for safe, clean cuts.
What’s the difference between these tools, and how do I choose the right one?
Blades and knives are for cutting, trimming, or shaping materials; scissors are for cutting sheet materials like paper, fabric, or plastic; scrapers are for removing paint, glue, or residue; and snips are for cutting thin metals or tough materials. The best choice depends on the job’s material and required precision.
How can I safely handle and store these sharp tools?
Always cut away from your body, wear gloves for tougher materials, and store each tool in a sheath, blade cover, or closed position. Keep them in a toolbox or on a magnetic strip out of reach of children.
When should I sharpen vs. replace a cutting edge?
Sharpen if the tool is designed for reuse, like a fixed utility knife, scissors, or scraper blade holder. Replace disposable blades or snip edges once they no longer cut cleanly — forcing them can damage the tool or cause injury.
