Make precise cuts in paper, film, and thin materials with legendary control

The knurled aluminum handle provides enough weight to guide cuts without fatiguing your hand during extended sessions. X-Acto's No. 1 knife has earned its place in studios and workshops through decades of reliable performance, from precise mat cutting to delicate paper sculpture. The included No. 11 blade handles most cutting tasks admirably, but compatibility with six different blade profiles means you can adapt this single handle to scoring, carving, chiseling, or general trimming as projects demand.

Quick blade changes take seconds with the collet chuck mechanism, no tools required. The slim profile allows you to see your cutting line clearly while maintaining control through detailed work. Whether you're cutting stencils from acetate, trimming model components from balsa, or stripping film for graphic design, the lightweight handle responds precisely to subtle hand movements.

This knife cuts paper, plastic, thin metals, cloth, and film with equal confidence. The real advantage lies in maintaining one familiar handle across different cutting applications rather than switching tools entirely. Keep extra blades on hand and you're equipped for whatever precision cutting your work requires.
