The Maker Utility Knife

The Maker Utility Knife

There’s a reason the utility knife has the name that it does—it’s incredibly useful, easy to carry and replacement blades are available at almost every big box store. And yet, the utility knife isn’t one of the pocket knives we use as part of our everyday carry, because there hasn’t been an option that combines the features of the utility knife blade with a holder that was convenient… until the Maker Knife. Made for makers, by makers, the Maker Knife is a utility knife blade holder capable of opening packages, whittling, working on tiny screws, stripping wires, sharpening pencils, cutting cords and marking—while still being built with all the extra features you want in a knife you’re going to carry all the time. It has an almost magical locking and deployment system that can be operated with a simple flick of the finger or thumb even when you’re wearing gloves. It’s available in a silver or black finish and comes with a pocket clip. It works with bulk utility knife blades or custom ceramic options that are better at retaining an edge. And in the words of renowned maker Jimmy Diresta, it “looks sexy AF.” We’re sold.
