OLFA Designer Art Knife Set (AK-5) 30 Blades, Needle, Tapered Handle, Stand

I absolutely love this knife. I've gotten to a point in my life where I like to buy items that will last for multiple years and accomplish multiple purposes and this checks both boxes. The body is a durable plastic and the locking mechanism is made of metal and very simple yet effective meaning it should last for a long long time. The blades that come with this kit are phenomenal. Even if I were to buy another knife I will continue to use these blades. They are shorter and thicker than standard hobby blades with a more severe angle on them. They allow for better control and detail on small work while being sharp enough still to do anything a standard hobby blade would. Would buy again over and over

I just finished a very difficult masking job on a scale model car. It was the first time I used my new AK-5 hobby knife. To say I’m impressed would be an understatement. First of all, like all Olfa blades, it is straight razor sharp. It comes with 30 blades so having a fresh blade for each task is recommended. It trims Tamiya tape like a laser beam. The pleasant surprise was the very handy burnishing tool on the end. It gets into the smallest corners to stick the tape down real good….then flip it around and your trimming blade is right in your hand. How easy is that?! Also included, is a needle point which comes in handy in soooooo many ways. I bought a second AK-5 just to have this little tool available without having to change the blade to the needle. The chrome Hasegawa film on the tiny trim strip on top of the fenders of this XKE that I’m working on is trimmed perfectly...looks like it was painted on thanks to the excellent ability of the OLFA blade. However tedious it is, I’m sure this Olfa knife will make the job easier.

I do tons of mixed media collage work and have a ton of small detail cuts in my work. I previously always bought the discount hobby knife sets, but found the quality of the cuts were terrible. I constantly had to go back and clean up or the blades dulled very quickly. I cannot be happier with this product. The blades are very sharp and hold an edge for a long time. I only have to make one pass on my cuts and it works excellent in tight corner cuts also. I love the you can easily adjust the length of the blade on this knife. Easy to load the blades in the holder - it's thin as a pencil. I also find I can use less pressure to cut. Overall just excellent quality and outstanding product. I will only use this brand knife and blades now.

This should be in every tabletop miniature gaming hobbyists toolkit! Quality blades from a Japanese company that’s been in the business with good history. The blades are the perfect size to work with miniatures — both the cutting blade for precise cuts — and the non-cutting side for removing burrs and cleaning up mold lines. The weight is also perfect as it can be used for long periods of time without fatigue.

It is a good hobby knife that I use for plastic model kits. Just wished it had a chisel blade option for the tight areas.

Look all around for a hobby knife that could do precision cutting and this did the job nicely. I have decals to put on an airline model and needed to cut out the windows which are extremely tiny. This knife worked brilliantly with precision sharpness. Comfortable in hand. Comes with 30 spare blades. These blades are the best in the business. Really impressed with OLFA.

I like that this knife has a shorter blade than some other knives.

Bought tons of products from Olfa, though never do they break, just love the products in general. this one in particular is really good with gunpla with very tiny nub cleaning on small parts, besides that, does paper crafting very well! Its very affordable and comes with extra knifes and a needle!

Really good knife. The brass end is grippy and well weighted, giving the knife a premium feel. The blades are very sharp, and changing them is very smooth. The locking mechanism is excellent. No blade shift. I have been using these knives for several years, making micro-micro cuts in paper, and I have never found anything more suitable. I prefer them to my surgical scalpels. Will keep buying!

Really precise knife for hobbyists

Tahmin ettiğimden çok daha küçük geldi fakat ürün kaliteli. OLFA zaten.
