Utility knife YATO YT-75201 — handheld cutting tool, 1 piece

YATO YT-75201 is a handheld utility knife supplied as a single piece, designed for general cutting tasks in workshop, construction, packaging and household environments. The compact steel-blade cutter is intended for trimming cardboard, plastic film, insulation and other light construction materials. Its solid zinc-alloy body and ergonomic handle balance portability with durability for everyday use.

Advantages

The knife features a robust zinc-alloy body combined with an ABS and TPR-coated ergonomic handle that provides a secure, non-slip grip. A metal blade ejection mechanism offers smooth, reliable blade movement and a three-stage "multi-stop" blade positioning system for controlled cutting depth. The tool supports automatic blade retraction for increased safety—when the eject button is released, the blade retracts automatically—reducing the risk of accidental injury and removing the need to manually retract the blade after each cut. A lateral strip cutter allows cutting of straps and similar materials without extending the main blade, and a built-in magazine in the handle stores spare trapezoidal blades for quick replacement.

Suitable for

• Cutting cardboard and packing materials
• Trimming plastic film and insulation

How to use

Hold the YATO YT-75201 by its ergonomic handle, position the blade against the material and press the blade eject button to extend the blade to the required multi-stop position. For controlled cuts, use the appropriate stop setting; release the button to allow automatic blade retraction if the safety mode is engaged. Use the lateral strip cutter without extending the main blade when cutting straps or similar materials. Replace blades by opening the handle magazine and inserting a new trapezoidal blade, ensuring secure seating before closing.

Usage recommendations

Use the automatic retraction mode when performing repetitive cuts near hands or in confined spaces to reduce injury risk. Select the appropriate multi-stop position for material thickness to maintain controlled cutting, and store spare SK5 blades in the handle magazine to ensure quick replacements on site. Keep the blade clean and replace when dulled to maintain cutting efficiency and safety.
