Modelcraft PKN4301/S Soft Grip Craft Knife Set , Silver

Works well

This is very easy to use with different blades to choose from depending on your project. I'm a bit anxious handling the blades as I am a bit accident prone but the end of the handle is magnetic so you use this to pick up which blade you would like and again to help replace it in the box. The only downside is that I find it incredibly difficult to open the case to get in there. Not what you want when you have a boxful of sharps.

I purchased this knife set for model making and it does everything that I purchased for the only negative thing that I found because I have multiple cirrhosis which has affected my hands, I cannot hold it as well as I would have liked this is no fault of that knife set it's just my hands.Excellent value for money 100% recommended

Pretty good craft knife. One flaw is that the grippy handle is also the screw for the blade inserts so it doesn't frequently come undone and need tightening so the blade doesn't fall out. Also I have already snapped the corners off a blade or two.

The blades are fine and fortunately fit other Xacto-style handles I already have.The knife handle in the box is utterly useless. It has what looks like the usual chuck with a pair of cross-slits in it that open up as you unwind the handle and the blades slot into them. Except they do not open anything wide enough to fit the blades that come in the kit or any of the many other craft knife blades I already have. Even when the chuck is unwound so far open that it’s not being held closed at all it’s not even possible to slide a sheet of paper into it, never mind the blades. Forcing the chuck to open by using another knife to lever it open gets me nowhere, it still barely opens and shuts instantly when I stop trying to force it open. Even my cheap Hobbycraft knife handle works better than this despite costing even less than this useless thing does.I doubt this is a one-off fault and I was just unlucky because the cause of it seems to be the chuck isn’t designed or machined properly and its design means it could never have worked.As I said, the blades, like others from the same manufacturer, are fine. Nothing wrong with them at all. Just don’t waste money on this kit and get a better quality knife handle such as an Xacto or similar.

You have to take the blade out every time to put the handle back in the case.

Theses were excellent items, Many Thanks

Solid handle and good selection of cutters. When cutting I found blade dropped out but this could have been my fault as I don’t have strong hands and maybe couldn’t tighten it enough...not sure
