How to use

Open the knife by unfolding the blade until it locks in the cutting position. Hold the handle firmly with your dominant hand and position the blade against the material to be cut.

Fold the blade back into the handle and ensure it is secured when transporting or storing the knife.

Wear appropriate protective equipment such as gloves and eye protection when cutting. Use controlled, even strokes and avoid excessive twisting or leverage on the blade to prevent damage. Keep replacement blades on hand to maintain consistent cutting quality and follow manufacturer guidance for blade disposal.
