The handle is comfortable, and the blade mechanism is smooth. Cuts through boxes, plastic, or tape easily. Review: Helps prevent hand fatigue - This cutter is great for opening or breaking down a lot of boxes, as well as cutting mat boards and other paper materials. A gentle squeeze allows the blade to protrude. Stop squeezing and the blade retracts. Wonderful protection for safety hazards. The button to change the length of blade protruding is not easy to move, but, I’m fine with that. I know it will not accidentally change. I read that there was a problem when changing the blade, so that was the first thing I tried. If it was too difficult, I planned to return it. It was not easy, but, I was afraid of cutting myself. I took my time and successfully changed the blade without any injuries. Because the sharp blade can be locked inside the handle and the button to expose the blade is not easy to adjust; little children cannot squeeze the knife and cause injury or damage. Of course, adults should do their part in locking and keeping it out of reach. Having had multiple surgeries on my shoulder, elbow, and wrist; using this box cutter prevented muscle pain and fatigue I usually get. The ergonomic shape definitely helped. The blade ends are rounded not pointed. The cutter is light weight and has a hole large enough for hanging on a hook or peg. ## Features - PREMIUM QUALITY: Made out of a full aluminum body with a robust design, the Nova squeeze utility knife is the heavy duty cutter you were looking for!
