X-Acto - Z-Series No. 11 Blades
Cut intricate details with blades that stay sharp up to 10 times longer
Precision cutting demands blades that hold their edge through detailed work, not ones that dull after a few passes. X-Acto addresses this with Z-Series No. 11 blades, seven to ten times sharper than standard blades, maintaining cutting performance through extended sessions of intricate trimming, scoring, and detail work.
The difference comes from zirconium nitride coating on the cutting edge, visible as a distinctive golden hue. This coating adds hardness to the blade structure, resisting the dulling that occurs when standard steel blades encounter dense materials or repetitive cuts. Whether you're cutting mat board for framing, trimming masking film for airbrushing, or scoring paper for precise folds, that sustained sharpness translates to cleaner cuts with less pressure and fewer blade changes.
Z-Series blades fit standard No. 1 knife handles and are available in five-blade packs for occasional users or 100-blade boxes for production work. You can also purchase them packaged with a No. 1 Precision knife if you're starting fresh or replacing a worn handle. For work where cutting precision directly affects final results, model building, paper sculpture, stencil cutting, the extended performance justifies the upgrade from standard blades.
