How to use

Hold the knife in a comfortable, controlled grip with the index finger guiding near the blade for maximum accuracy. Use a cutting mat or protective underlayer and apply steady, even pressure while moving the blade along the cutting line. For thicker materials, make several light passes rather than forcing a single deep cut. Replace the blade when it starts to dull to maintain precise results and reduce the need for excessive pressure.

Usage recommendations

Always work with appropriate safety measures: use a cutting mat, cut away from your body and store the knife with the blade covered when not in use. Keep out of reach of children and use protective gloves if prolonged cutting is expected. For best results on different materials, test cuts on scrap pieces to adjust pressure and angle.
