OLFA 9mm Stainless Steel Utility Knife (SVR-1) - Multi-Purpose Retractable Precision Knife w/ Snap-Off Blade, Replacement Blades: Any OLFA 9mm Blade

Perfect

I have used this type of utility knife for a very long time. As a graphic artist or doing some artwork this is a tool that you should always have, it comes very handy and very stable, doesnt wabble, safe for use. I lost my old one which is exactly the same model and I am getting the same one because I loved using it. I would recommend this to anyone looking for something to use as an art utility knife. Plus the price was a good deal for me and the shipping was fast, got it on time.

I’ve been using cheap utility cutters from the hardware store for years and although they were adequate, they were a little flimsy and not very sharp. A bookbinder recommended this particular knife and I bought it on the off chance that it might make cutting my paper a little easier. It’s amazing! Sturdy and sharp! Cuts my workload in half. I love it! It’s now one of my favorite (and essential) bookbinding tools!

If I were paying full retail price on this product (which, actually, I did unfortunately), I would not give it five stars. Ive written a much more extensive review on the SVR-2, which is very similar, except that it locks which this knife does not. Moderate pressure will send the blade back inside the carrier, making it useful for some tasks... Less so for others. But, for the price this gets offered at, a great knife to keep around. The stainless blades that come with these are alright, the carbon steel blades Olfa sells are much nicer. But still, you cant go wrong at this price unless youre doing a lot of heavy-handed tasks. Brilliantly simple design, very sturdy, very easy to change blades and break off tips. A very smart product. Update: When I wrote this, the price was considerably less than the

Really good quality product. Works really well. Much better than the disposal ones.

thin, small and simple for getting into tight corners paper hanging and cutting vinyl. Best utility knife for delicate materials.

Ive been using these Olfa blades for over 15 years and they never failed me. I lost one to airport security forgetting it clipped in my pocket, lost a clip at one point, and of all the Olfa blades Ive had, Ive only managed to bend one housing. 12+ years in sign and graphics cutting material all day, opening boxes, breaking down cardboard, wrapping vehicles and trailers, and 3+ years using them as basic utility knives selling, building, and training people on digital cutters. I have these things stashed around my house for quick access in the garage, kitchen, and desk. Its the only knife Ill continue to buy.

Works great for my everyday uses, very durable.

Olfa knives are very handy. This is no exception. Very nice

These knives are fantastic. Always sharp, and well made. Ive used these for weeding vinyl in the application of vehicle lettering and graphics. They always preform great.
