Safety knives for controlled cutting
A safety knife cuts strapping, film, cardboard and tape while keeping the blade away from hands, clothing and the goods underneath. Where cut injuries are logged, moving from a fixed blade to a retracting one removes the most common cause at a stroke.
The mechanism should follow how often the tool is used. A manual slider suits occasional cuts and gives full control of depth. An automatically retracting blade springs back the moment it leaves the material, which suits repetitive unpacking where attention drifts. A concealed blade never leaves its guard at all and is the safest choice for film, banding and shrink wrap over delicate goods.
Blade width sets the cutting depth, with 9 mm covering light work and 18 mm the heavier cuts. Check how the blade is changed and how spares are stored, because a knife that needs a separate tool for a blade swap gets run blunt instead.
