Broken blade knives - for renovation and construction work
Folding blade knives, also known as interchangeable blade knives or segmented knives, are very popular hand tools, suitable for many jobs. Regardless of the model, their construction is always the same and consists of a handle, made of plastic, rubber-coated plastic or metal, a blade guide that allows the blade to be extended and retracted, and the blade itself - an interchangeable blade, the segments of which break off to maintain sharpness. In addition, segmented knives can be equipped with a mechanism that locks the blade against accidental ejection and a tip that allows you to safely break off individual segments.
There are several types of breakaway blade knives:
- Universal knife - that is, a knife with an 18 mm breakaway blade, is the most popular type, designed to perform basic tasks such as cutting through paper, cardboard, film or tape. Universal knives are equipped with 18 mm wide breakaway blades.
