Snap-off blades - 18 mm - Set of 3 - Extra grip - With safety lock
A must-have for DIYers: these snap-off blades from Talen Tools. This set includes 3 blades, providing you with a handy tool for cutting materials for years to come. You can use snap-off blades, for example, to cut cardboard, carpet, linoleum, and many other materials. Use the slider to slide the blade out of the holder. The holder features notches on the side, giving you extra grip while cutting. This is safer and also allows for more precise cutting. It’s less likely that your hand will slip while cutting. Only extend the necessary portion of the blade; this reduces the risk of the blade breaking accidentally.
Is your snap-off knife not sharp enough? Are you finding that cutting is becoming increasingly difficult? For example, do you have to apply more force than before? If so, it’s often time to switch to a new section of the snap-off knife. In these models from Talen Tools, you’ll see pre-scored lines on the blade. Extend the blade fully. Bend the blade along the scored line so that this section snaps off. This usually doesn’t cause any problems, but of course, you can always wear gloves just to be safe. Once the worn section has been removed, you’ll have a new, sharp section of the blade again. You’ll notice that cutting goes much more smoothly. This ensures optimal cutting results and also saves you energy.
Snap-off knife with safety lock Working with a sharp knife requires safe handling. To work safely, the sharp snap-off knife must be “locked in place.” Use the slide. By sliding it out on the slide itself, you ensure that the snap-off knife stays in place. This prevents the blade from popping out while you’re working. Not using the knife? The safety lock is important even then. When you’re not using the blade, it’s always recommended to slide the safety lock open. This keeps the blade securely in place, even when you put the snap-off knife in your chest or pants pocket.
