Slice® Edge Utility Cutter

This sleek, portable tool brings safety to the EDC (Every Day Carry) community. It features the Slice® patent-pending grinding process, which creates a finger-friendly® edge that’s both safe to the touch and effective at cutting a wide variety of materials. The handle is made from durable die-cast aluminum and offers a textured surface for a comfortable grip. An integrated lanyard hole and pocketable form factor keep the 10496 conveniently close and ready to go. It ships with a rounded-tip 10524 blade and is compatible with the pointed-tip 10525 and the serrated 10523. All compatible blades are made from advanced ceramics and last up to 11 times longer than equivalent metal blades. Custom blade-change hex key included.

To expose the blade of the popular 10493 tool, simply squeeze the trigger mechanism and you’re ready to go. A blade-lock switch prevents accidental blade exposure. As with all Slice blades, the installed blade has a finger-friendly edge that’s specifically engineered to be safe to the touch and lower the risk of lacerations. In addition, the zirconium oxide blades lasts up to 11x longer than metal blades and never rusts. Other convenient features include an integrated lanyard hole and easy, no-tool blade change.
