A gentle squeeze of the ergonomic handle extends the blade naturally, reducing repetitive thumb motion injury common with other box cutters. when the handle is released, the blade retracts inside the unit, unlike other devices where the blade remains in an extended position waiting for an accidents to occur.

The on-board storage compartment for back-up blades enables fast and convenient blade changes. Review: Delicate items like boxes of cereal or frozen food - I have been in the grocery industry for 30 years and I have used a number of different box cutters in that time. About 15 years ago my company went to a "safety cutter" that was OK but not all that safe. It has a blade guard that is fixed in an open position and I never really developed a feel for using that cutter. I resorted to just using the cutter primarily for cutting plastic wrapped cases and breaking tape. Delicate items like boxes of cereal or frozen food, if not taped shut, I just opened by hand, it was easier to do that way and much less likely to cut the product. I saw the EZ Box Cutter 1000 EZ Cut/Easy Safety Box Cutter Blue on my favorite shopping site and thought I would give it a try. I have been using it for three weeks now and I must say I am impressed with it. When I ordered it I was a bit concerned that squeezing the trigger to extend the blade would be awkward and might lead to discomfort in my hand. In actual use I do not even notice squeezing the trigger and the amount of effort to do so I could not even measure. Another thing I really like is the blade guard which can be extended when cutting off the tops of boxes or retracted when cutting plastic wrap. Typically, canned groceries are in trays and wrapped in plastic film. I have about 50 stacks of cans 5 to ten cases high to cut through a night. My method is to cut down one side of a stack, cut up the next side, and then down again. I can cut a whole stack that way in 20 to 30 seconds. My old cutter had a fixed blade guard which often got cut in the openings on the sides of the cases which meant I often had to re-cut the plastic film. My EZ cutter's blade guard is only extended when I want it extended so I can cut the plastic film with a blade that doesn't snag on anything. I have yet to need to make a re-cut, so the EZ cutter is saving me time. Another thing I like is the numbered adjustable blade depth gauge. It has four settings, 1, 2, 3, and L locks the cutter so the blade will not extend. I primarily just use the 1 setting, even to cut shrink wrap off of pallets. Since there is no blade guard in my way I find it more than adequate. One draw back is that the wheel that sets the blade depth turns easily so there are times I either have a locked cutter or I am on a different setting. I think that this happens to me because I do not like using the provided holster and instead put the cutter in my pocket. I ordered the blue cutter which does not come with a tape breaker. However, you can just cut the tape off or I have found that by extending the blade guard and squeezing the trigger the blade guard is locked in place and the blade guard will then easily break tape. When I am throwing frozen load I find that I am opening cases by breaking tape most of the time. So I do not miss my old cutter in frozen either. Changing blades is extremely easy and safe. Just open the top and pull the back (dull side) of the blade out and drop a new one in. The EZ cutter also has on board blade storage but I am only able to store two extra blades. That would probably be enough for most people but I would like it better if it held five. Speaking of blades, the EZ cutter uses a blade that is different than what my company provides so I had to order replacement blades when I ordered the cutter. I think I got 81 blades for about $20. Pricier than standard utility blades but the blades seem to last much longer. I think this is because the depth gauge enables the selection of the precise depth needed and I am not cutting into the sides of metal cans. Not that I cut open metal cans with the old cutter, just that I do not feel the blade in the EZ cutter touches the cans at all. Just the plastic film is cut and so the blade lasts longer. In addition to the depth, the position of the blade under the guard when extended is in exactly the right place for cutting the top off of boxes without damaging product. It is extremely easy to open Jiffy cake mixes by hand, which I have been in the habit of doing so that I don't cut the product open. Jiffy boxes are very thin so I thought they would be an excellent test to see if the EZ cutter would damage the product or not. I cut them open slow and fast multiple times and no product was damaged. I think that the EZ cutter would not only be a safe cutter for grocery stores to use but would help reduce shrink wherever it is employed. Also, I really like the safety cord. If somehow I leave the cutter on the floor then when I stand up the cutter comes with me as I clip the cord onto a belt loop. The clip is a little small and hard to open. The only recommendations I have for improving the product: Make the depth adjustment wheel lockable so that it does not turn out of place for pocket users. Have it available in green so that people who use it on the "down low" are not spotted by their manager. Use a standard blade so that the cost of blades is reduced. Have a no holster ordering option for those who do not use a holster, let them save a little money also. Make the clip on the cord a little bigger and/or easier to open. I rate the EZ cutter 5 stars for ease of use, ease of blade change, comfort in the hand, excellent blade wear, excellent precision in cutting, it seems extremely durable, convenient safety cord, and decent price. I expect to use this cutter for a long time. Review: Lifesaver when you work stocking retail - Working at walmart :( this is the best boxcutter.

Retractable is a must for as many times I need to use it. Easy to replace blades. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent for stock room, receiving, and shipping workers!!! *by E***. on August 4, 2015* I am a stock room receiving associate. This has definitely made my job easier! I work receiving hundreds of cases a day and this cutter has been a lifesaver as I don't have to keep opening and manually retracting my old box cutter anymore. This has helped my cutting hand and wrist, especially my thumb (which used to draw and retract my blade). Now, just a quick squeeze and I'm cutting. The one thing that would improve this for me is if in the #3 setting, the blade came out just a little more. The cases I cut are pretty thick and this doesn't quite go all the way through requiring me to make a couple of passes on some cuts. That may not seem like a big deal, but when you do this hundreds of times a day and rely on speed and accuracy to get your job done, it adds up. I don't use the holster because it actually slows me down and speed is important, I just throw it in my pocket. It retracts automatically so I haven't jabbed myself. I attach the spring lanyard to my back pant loop so it doesn't get in the way but I never loose my cutter. Some tips, keep some goo-gone or adhesive remover if you cut through a lot of packing tape. Have a small sharpening stone to keep your blades lasting longer and reusable. I've managed to stretch the life of my blades a lot longer. ## Frequently Bought Together - EasyCut 1000 Safe Retractable Box Cutting Utility Knife, Blue, 09780 - 81 Easy Cut/EZ Cutter Replacement Blades 09703 STD Blades Box - Modern Box Cutter, Extra Tape Cutter at Back, Dual Side Edge Guide, 3 Blade Depth Setting, 2 Blades and Holster - 2000 Red STD --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.pa/products/4262237-easycut-1000-safe-retractable-box-cutting-utility-knife-blue-09780](https://www.desertcart.com.pa/products/4262237-easycut-1000-safe-retractable-box-cutting-utility-knife-blue-09780) --- *Product available on Desertcart Panama* *Store origin: PA* *Last updated: 2026-09-14*
