While I do not recommend using this tool to harm any animals because that's just plain wrong, I strongly suggest putting it aside in your underground bunker to use as a weapon in case of a zombie apocalypse.
They say that they are the sharpest blades in the industry - I don't know if I can verify that, but they sure are sharp.
- These blades seem to last quite a bit longer before needing to be sharpened or replaced.
- The style of this knife is pretty standard but feels nice in your hand. The gold bit is a nice touch.
- It is all metal and has a good feel and a good weight to it.
- This set doesn't come with any extra blades but they're cheap to buy and easy to replace.
- I haven't had any problem with the blade becoming loose with use, like I have with other brands. It only unscrews when I want it to.
- I just have to deduct a star because of the cap. I hate the cap. I feel like it's not going on tight enough, and if I push it too hard, I'm terrified it'll break on me. Realistically, it won't, and I know that... but I just really don't like it.
- Besides the cap, it's a very high-quality great craft knife that will last far longer than the generic plastic ones I also own.

So, just in case you didn’t know this #2 blade knife is larger and has a thicker barrel grip than the regular #11 blade and holder. The #11 has a diameter of 8mm whereas the #2 diameter is 11mm. It may not sound like a lot but believe me it is! (Imagine sharpie vs pencil).
I’ve included some pictures to show the size difference. The #2 has a gold grip and is on the bottom of each picture.
I’ve been using it to cut tiny strips of copper foil tape along the edges of my soldering projects. I love how much more control I have with more area to grip. The blade itself comes to the same point at the same angle as the original #11. There is no loss of cutting precision.
I definitely recommend grabbing one of these big boys you won’t regret it. And if you didn’t know there were different sizes of X-acto and were going to buy this one by mistake, you’re welcome. But still buy it because you totally need it, I promise.
