Slight update, few more long shifts using this as essentially my only blade and I'm happy enough with it that I may be getting another for my regular key ring.Basically all the needs I have at work are those that would be taken care of with a box cutter usually, I get sick of having to go try to find one, and when I do find them they're typically chipped and dull. I'd rather pull something from my pocket and take care of it then. And this knife is perfect for this. Plastic package opening, breaking down boxes, cutting zipties and plastic strapping.Not massive jobs by any means, but ones that can get annoying.
Another update at 3 weeks. Just about daily use for the little guy ripping open boxes(aiming for tape, but getting cardboard too), cutting plastic strapping, and opening up clamshell packages. The edge was definitely showing the wear and tear of being leveraged against strapping and zipties as well as constant boxes. Definitely still had a working edge, but could use attention. Had a diamond hone at work, about 20 seconds with that followed up with a few passes with a polishing hone and it was back to just under hair popping. Liking this knife quite a bit, especially for under 10 bucks. Work always has the cheapest box cutters they can get with dull abused blades, 10 times out of 10 I'll be reaching for this little guy.(Image removed from quote.)
So I gave it away.....
