The perfect knife for crafters, or anytime you need a precision cut. The Maped Easy Cut scalpel produces a sharp, clean cut, and is safer to use than traditional utility or art knives. The end-piece of the knife has an integrated blade, so to change the blade, you just pop the end piece off, so there"s no direct contact with the blade itself. To store the blade, pop the end piece off, turn it upside down into the blade handle and snap it into place. When you"re not cutting, the blade is safely covered. You"ll get lots of use out of your purchase, as each package comes equipped with three end pieces with integrated blades.
