From the ManufacturerWhy Ceramic Blades? Hardness & Sharpness.On the Mohs hardness scale, Metal blades are rated 5.5 vs. Ceramic blades at 8.2, second only to diamonds. Harder edges maintain sharpness longer, cut better, and require replacement far less frequently. In fact, depending on use, you can go weeks or months without having to replace a single ceramic blade. They also last up to 10x longer! Saving Money Just Makes Sense.A single Slice ceramic blade is equivalent up to 10 high-end double-sided metal blades or up to 20 high-end single sided metal blades. In terms of safety, less blade changes also mean less risk of injury. Manual Carton CutterThe Slice 10585 Manual Carton Cutter is a clever addition to our line of safety knives. As the name suggests, this tool design-its exposed blade length and angle-is ideal for boxboard and thin corrugate. No-tool blade change.The 10585 ships with a rounded-tip 10526 utility knife blade. Easily switch out the blade with it's compatible with blades: 10526 & 10528. Cut without FearThe Slice Carton Cutter (Manual) has just enough blade exposure to easily cut through boxboard without fear of damaging package contents. Slide the tool’s protective metal sheath to cover or uncover the blade as needed. Our safety is in the bladeBecause Slice brings safety to ceramic cutters. The technology for advanced ceramics has existed for years but Slice is the first company to harness its advantages and innovate a new breed of safety knives. We developed a blade-manufacturing process that creates an effective, durable, and finger-friendly edge that’s not available in any other ceramic cutter. About the StartupDescribe your product in 3 words.Safe. Elegant. Innovative.How did you come up with the idea for this product?Slice has a commitment to donate 1% of all sales to fund Autism research, primarily through our main benefactor, Lucile Packard Children's Hospital Stanford University.What makes your product special?Our proprietary blade manufacturing process combines a unique sharpening angle and thicker ceramic material, resulting in a very unique patented blade that’s safer to the touch vs. metal, and requires pressure to initiate the cut - via our handles. Hence, general blade handling and blade-replacement with Slice ceramic blades is infinitely safer vs. those same activities with traditional metal blades, yet still allows for a wide range of cutting applications.What has been the best part of your startup experience?You can’t simply duplicate a metal blade in ceramic material and achieve what we have created with our current products. There’s a tremendous amount of engineering required on not only the blades and handles individually, but there’s also an incredible amount of engineering required on the combination of the handles and the blades working together in order to produce the desired balance of safer-usage and cutting capability. Even today, for our next generation of products that are currently under development, we spend the majority of our time finding the right balance between handle and blade through trial and error and what seems like endless prototypes. The best part definitely has to be seeing peoples first-time reactions when cutting cardboard with Slice and they realize how awesome the Slice ceramic blade is.Product DescriptionThe Slice 10585 Manual Carton Cutter is a clever addition to our line of safety knives.
