7/23/2021: After using the Amazon Basics Retractable Utility Knife for two weeks, I not only remain impressed with the heavy duty feel, but the day-to-day use is awesome! I keep one an arm's length away at all times. I absolutely love these and even if I have a different knife near me I will reach for these first. I love that you can use them, almost surgically, for very fine cuts, and also for the tough jobs. I extend just the very tip for the fine cuts and the casing doesn't get in the way like traditional retractable box cutters so you can see exactly where you're cutting. When I'm ready to cut a box open or down it's a breeze. So happy with these that I'm ordering more.These are the quickest and easiest way to cut for so many tasks and feel great in the hand - nice weight and balance.
7/9/2021: Rather impressed at how heavy duty these feel. I wasn't expecting them to be so nice. Easy to load and unload with plenty of extra blades included - fifteen preloaded, three per knife, and ten extra included in the box. I don't normally choose this type of knife but I lose every utility knife I put my hands on. I must have between ten to fifteen somewhere in the house but I can only find three at the moment and when I need one it's never right at hand. I'll be spreading these around the house so I don't have to look whenever I need a box opener. I'll update my review and the stars once I actually open a box with one.
