TĀKO X4- Retractable Utility Knife, Instant Access to 3 Extra Blades, Box Cutter, Quick Change, Lightweight, Pocket Knife

Great little knife.

Best utility knife I've ever used

This is a well built tool, and IMO, a good idea executed pretty well. While it does suffer a bit from the Jack of all trades, master of none thing that you usually run into with multi use tools, this one does all of them pretty good. After a couple tries, extending and retracting the blade becomes smooth and easy, and the little groove that will hold a blade to be used as a scraper can be handy as well. If it had a more secure way to lock the blade in the scraping position, I would give it 5 stars. As it is, the scraper works OK for light duty use, and the utility knife part of it works very well. The design is simple, yet very strong ( a perfect example of 'less is more'). What I think is the best feature of the knife is the ability to hold 2 different blades at the same time, with either available at a moment's notice, just by which blade you choose to extend. Makes it easy to have 2 different styles of blades at the ready, or to have a new edge for precision work ready to go without having to remove a blade that isn't 'new' but is far from ready to be tossed. The pocket clip is nice, has just the right tension for a knife this size/weight. Holds it securely, yet easy to get. The handle is rather large, making this more a full size utility knife than a compact one. However, it is also very thin, so thin you barely notice it's still in your pocket.

Many box knives do not hold the blade firmly, allowing it to push back into the handle. This one firmly locks the blade in-place, with zero slippage. The construction is very sturdy.

I bought this since it was dual purpose knife and scraper, but found it harder to use than more traditional box cutters. The blade can be hard to extend, and the scraper seems dangerous with exposed edges. Sorry, can't recommend this.

This is a great little edc utility knife. Doesn't expect some of the hook blades I use. It definitely takes some time to get used to.

I carry a dual blade utility knife daily at work and always had the big bulky craftsman one. My helper lost that knife, so I bought this one after seeing it on Amazon. I expected the function of puting the blade in and out to hang up and not work that smooth, but it’s so natural and easy to do one handed and extremely slim. I’ve used the knife for several months every day, and after owning it I even carry it out of work as an edc. It’s no self defense knife, but useful for just about any other situation (besides, that’s what the MP9 is for)

Love this knife at work. I used to have to carry two separate utility knives with different blades and the fact that I can have 2 each of my most used blades in the same knife is a game changer. Fits the hand well though I must admit I have large hands. Takes a bit of time to get used to the mechanism but so far I haven't have the blades even try to come free from the body. Not something I could say about any knife that I have otherwise had.
