Left-handed highlights

Reversed blade lever placement, positioned on the opposite side from a standard utility knife — making blade extension and cutting feel natural in the left hand.

A note from HIDARI

Utility knives are simple tools, but the small difference in lever placement matters more than you might expect. This OLFA model is easy to use for everyday packaging, crafts, and DIY, and it’s one of those left-handed tools that quickly feels “normal” once you try it.

Utility knife for left-handers

This is a left-handed version of the most popular utility knife in Japan.

You can use it for packaging, crafts, and interior decoration work.

The lever for inserting and removing the blade is on the opposite side of the blade from an ordinary cutter knife.

This makes the operation smooth, from taking out the blade to cutting.

 

Two replacement blades included

If the blade is damaged you can refresh it by folding it with a fold line.

In addition, two replacement blades are included.
