> 3 dayThe only thing I would add is some extra blades to come with it, since I go through lots of blades in short time. The back piece to cut the blade off works well.

> 3 dayI love these knives. They are comfortable to hold & they are non-slip. They will fit in your pocket easily (no pocket clip). The blade is extremely easy to extend and retract. The blade can be retracted completely into the handle for safe handling. The blades are fairly easy to replace (no screwdriver needed). When the tip becomes dull, you can simply snap the tip off (be careful of flying metal). The refill blades are fairly inexpensive. BTW: the black blades are MUCH better than the silver blades. Ive used both. The black blades are extremely sharp and strong.

Greater than one weekAwesome utility blade.... Light, small yet sturdy. Great design allows user to break off end pieces as the cutting edge surface gets dull. I also purchased extra blades for future use. Great for when you dont want to mess up the edge on your nice pocket knife. Made in Japan.

> 3 dayIve been using a utility knife to cut foam core boards for a project which wear out after a couple small cuts causing the foam to tear resulting in ugly edges. I would swap blades every couple passes. I came across this looking for something better and I gotta say this is a life saver. I still havent had to break off a blade yet as it is retaining its sharpness so well. With all the cutting I have done i would have used 10 utility blades by now, yet this initial blade is still flawlessly working. Will buy again... assuming these even start to dull eventually.

> 3 dayVery nice. It cuts well. Rusts easily so keep it dry.

> 3 dayThe only thing I would change is maybe replace the plastic handle with something more sturdy. But I see no reason for it to break on me.

Greater than one weekI bought the SVR-2 and this one the same time. I love them both, but this one has a very comfortable grip that fits in my hand perfectly. Love it!

Greater than one weekThis knife is comfortable in the hand. I love the convenience of being able to quickly and easily snap off the old blade, and directly behind it is a ready to use replacement. Makes perfect sense for making clean cuts, with a fresh blade always at the ready.
