Utility Knife Fiskars 1023621 with Retractable Blade and Ergonomic Handle

The Fiskars 1023621 utility knife with retractable blade and ergonomic handle is a compact cutting tool designed for controlled, repeatable cuts in workshop, packaging, DIY and craft environments. Its sliding blade mechanism allows smooth extension and secure locking of the blade for working, and full retraction for safe storage. The knife’s ergonomic handle provides a comfortable grip that helps maintain precision during routine cutting tasks.

Advantages

The retractable blade mechanism reduces the risk of accidental cuts when the tool is not in use and makes the knife convenient to carry and store. The ergonomic handle is shaped to support a stable grip and reduce hand fatigue during repetitive tasks. A simple sliding control enables rapid blade deployment and retraction, supporting accurate, consistent cuts on cardboard, paper, plastic film and similar materials.

Suitable for

• Opening and cutting packaging and boxes
• General workshop cutting tasks and material trimming
• DIY projects and household repairs
• Craft and hobby work requiring precise straight cuts

Key specifications

• Blade type: retractable utility blade compatible with standard snap-off or replaceable blades
• Handle: ergonomic shape designed for comfortable one-handed use
• Operation: sliding mechanism for extending and locking the blade
• Size: compact, pocketable design for easy storage and transport

How to use

Hold the knife by its ergonomic handle with a firm, controlled grip. Slide the control forward to extend the blade to the desired length and ensure the blade locks in place before cutting. Make steady, even passes along the material to achieve precise cuts; apply moderate pressure rather than forcing the blade. When cutting is finished, slide the control back to fully retract the blade and check that it is securely stowed before placing the knife in a drawer or pocket.

Usage recommendations

Use replacement blades in good condition to maintain cutting performance and reduce the need for excessive pressure. Wear appropriate hand protection if cutting tough materials, and always retract the blade when the knife is not in use or during transport.
