Common questions
How many edges per blade?
Eight. An 18 mm blade has eight snap-off points, so the three included blades give 24.
What is the auto-lock?
Sliding the blade out clicks it into a locked detent without a separate screw step. The screw-lock 42050 clamps harder.
What is the blade breaker?
A slot in the knife that grips a dull segment so you can snap it off square.
Does the blade retract by itself?
No. For a self-retracting blade, use the Switchblade knives 42067, 42062 or 42056.
