✕DO NOT FORCE THE FIT
- It is not a trade blade for leather, reinforced belting, or thick foam — those cuts want the ground, sharpenable heritage knives, not a short stamped edge.
- It is not a precision flash-trim blade for molded parts (that is a V-trim tool).
- And its pointed tip makes it the wrong blade wherever a puncture is the hazard you are trying to avoid — cutting shrink wrap over finished goods, opening cartons whose contents must survive, or any program that has banned pointed edges after an incident.
- Where the point is a liability, step to the round-tip 42117/42118.
