Box Cutters and their advantages
One of the tools that have made the cutting process through any surface easier for users is the box cutter. A box cutter is considered one of the necessities in a toolbox, whether in a household, office, or warehouse. Box cutters have become a huge trend nowadays since they provide people with their easy-to-use design and numerous safety precautions.
Plus, box cutters are equipped with high-quality blades that are sharp enough to cut through different surfaces, such as paper, cardaboard, and even thicker surfaces, like wood.
Thus, ever since people started to acknowledge the advantages that come with owning a box cutter, they have started to demand more of it. Therefore, box cutter production companies have started to differentiate their products and introduce new types of box cutters with various features.
Different types of blades used in box cutters
Box cutter blades come in a variety of materials, but the two most popular are steel and ceramic. Steel blades are the traditional choice and are known for their durability and sharpness. Steel blades are usually a cheaper option. Ceramic blades, on the other hand, are a newer option that offers a number of advantages over steel. Ceramic box cutters last longer than their steel counterparts, and they stay sharp for a larger number of uses. In addition, ceramic blades are less likely to rust or corrode, making them a good choice for wet or humid environments. Overall, ceramic box cutters are more effective than steel blades and are the better choice for most applications.
Four things that a ceramic box cutter can help you with:
1- The outer design of the ceramic box cutter helps people to have control
When it comes to the exterior design of a product, some people think that it only has one role – which is to attract the eye of the customer due to an aesthetic and clever exterior design. However, this is not the case regarding box cutters, especially the ceramic type. One of the advantages that a ceramic box cutter can help people with is gaining control over the box cutter. Ceramic box cutters are designed to allow people more control over the box cutter, making it easier to hold it, put pressure on it, and even avoid injuries that could be caused by the box cutter slipping from the user’s hands through the cutting process.
2- Ceramic blades help people avoid additional costs because they last longer
There are many reasons why ceramic box cutters can last longer when compared to other box cutters. The first reason is that ceramic is one of the hardest materials, making the ceramic blade inside the box cutter have high resistance to breaking.
Additionally, since the ceramic blade is considered hard, it gives the blade extra sharpness, making it easier for people to cut through any material and surface they would like.
3- Ceramic blade box cutters are safer to use
Most box cutters nowadays have safety features on them, such as the lock feature. As box cutters are sharp objects, a key factor in deciding what box cutter to use is the extent of safety it will provide to the users. So, an advantage of owning a ceramic box cutter is that even though the lock features are inserted, the ceramic material makes it more finger-friendly for users. In other words, even though the ceramic blade is considered sharp, the material cuts through the skin with much more difficulty compared to other types of blades.
4- Ceramic box cutters are more resistant to rust
Another factor that goes into making the ceramic box cutter last longer is its high levels of resistance to deterioration and rust. Many substances, such as salt, water, acid, etc., cause damage to the blades of box cutters, making it difficult for users to cut through materials that could cause damage to the blade. Since ceramic has a high tolerance for damaging substances, people have found it easier to cut through most surfaces with a ceramic box cutter.
Additionally, this advantage also affects the box cutter’s life span, making it last longer.
Conclusion
To sum up, box cutters have become a necessity in most environments as people have seen the many advantages of owning one. The increase in demand has pushed box cutter production companies to increase the types of box cutters in the market; hence, the ceramic box cutter was introduced. Thus, ceramic box cutters have provided users with a safer hardware tool, ensuring that the cutting process will go smoothly, the ability to have more grip over the tool due to the enhanced exterior design, and a product with high levels of resistance towards deterioration and rust.
