As easy to use as it is to pick up, this squeeze knife deploys its blade as soon as you squeeze the trigger. Ideal for use with work gloves, the 10494 comes with the added safety of a finger-friendly® blade and smart retraction. This mechanism automatically retracts the blade once it loses contact with the material you’re cutting, even if you’re still squeezing the trigger. This means accidental slips or drops are no longer a hazard for legs, arms, or any coworker that gets in the way at the wrong moment. In addition, the Slice blade reduces the risk of laceration through its proprietary grind. With a sturdy and familiar form factor, the Smart-Retracting Metal-Handle Squeeze Knife is an investment in safety and good cutting. Comes with installed rounded-tip blade (10524) and is compatible with pointed-tip (10525) and serrated (10523) blade options.
