Excel - Folding Lock-Back Utility Knife

Folding Lock-Back Utility Knife

Change blades instantly with one-hand operation and push-button release

Aluminum construction keeps this knife light enough for all-day pocket carry without the bulk of traditional utility knives. Excel's lock-back mechanism secures blades firmly during cuts, no blade wobble when scoring mat board or trimming masking film. The one-handed opening design means you can hold your work steady with one hand while deploying the blade with the other, eliminating the awkward juggling act that slows down precision cuts.

Push-button blade release makes swaps genuinely fast. When your edge dulls mid-project, you're back to cutting in seconds rather than fumbling with screws or disassembly. The integrated clip positions the knife securely in your pocket or apron, keeping it accessible without rattling around loose in your tool drawer. Three #92 replacement blades come included, so you've got fresh edges ready when detail work demands clean cuts through paper, foam core, or thin plastics.

This knife handles the constant blade changes that studio work requires, switching between tasks, replacing dulled edges, adapting to different materials, without the friction of complicated mechanisms or lost hardware.
