Pacific Handy Cutter e12215-9 Safety Utility Knife

Product Description

The PACIFIC HANDY CUTTER e12215-9 is an automatic-retract safety utility knife built for environments where blade control and foreign-object detection matter. The blade retracts automatically when the user releases the slide mechanism, eliminating the need to manually retract before setting the knife down. The slim metal handle measures 6 inches in overall length and 1.25 inches in width, with a textured grip surface for secure handling. The included carbon steel utility blade features a rounded tip and projects 0.75 inches at full extension. Metal detectable construction makes this knife suitable for food processing lines and medical lab environments where contamination control protocols are enforced.

This knife is designed for cutting cardboard, paper, plastic, rubber, leather, cork, carpet, foam, shrink wrap, stretch film, tape, twine, yarn, and zip ties. It fits ambidextrous use and is appropriate for production, packaging, and processing environments where automatic blade retraction is required by safety policy. The tether-ready design accommodates tool-tethering programs common in food manufacturing and cleanroom settings. Blade changes are tool-free, reducing downtime during shift changes or blade replacement cycles.
