Product Description
72420 Retractable Utility Knife: Two Modes, One Dependable Cutter
Quick cuts and long cuts call for different blade behavior. The POWERTEC 72420 Retractable Utility Knife gives warehouse crews, contractors, and DIYers a dual-mode blade: spring-loaded auto-retract for fast everyday cuts, or a blade lock for continuous cutting on longer tasks.
It comes ready to work with four SK5 blades, one installed and three stored in the handle, for up to eight cutting edges before you need to buy more. A built-in strap cutter handles packaging straps and twine, which makes it a good fit for shipping, flooring, drywall, carpet, and general workshop jobs.
Key Features & Benefits
Dual-Mode Auto-Retract and Lock
- Spring-loaded auto-retract pulls the blade back when you release it, for added safety during everyday carry and quick cuts.
- Blade lock mode keeps the edge out for continuous cutting without holding the slider.
In-Handle Storage with 4 SK5 Blades
- Three spare blades store inside the handle while one stays installed, so a fresh edge is always within reach.
- Reversible SK5 high-carbon steel blades give up to eight cutting edges and fewer blade changes.
Standard Utility Blade Compatible
- Accepts most standard 61 × 19 × 0.6 mm utility blades, so replacements are easy to find.
- Flip each blade to use the second edge before swapping in a new one.
Integrated Strap Cutter
- Front strap cutter slices packaging straps, twine, and shrink wrap without extending the blade.
- Faster, more convenient package opening for warehouse, shipping, and everyday tasks.
Heavy-Duty Zinc Alloy Body
- Rugged zinc alloy frame stands up to jobsite and workshop use.
- ABS handle with soft, rubber-like non-slip overmold improves comfort, control, and grip during longer cutting tasks.
