The haptics.
The blade is made of a 2-component casting. Front prevails metal while the rear slip-resistant rubber coating dominiert.Unten is the button, which allows you to extend the blade. But retraction is not possible. But the work anyway (to) a often. Plus, there's a button with which you can secure the blade so that it can not be moved out. In addition, here, another button is available here, with which you can change the blade.
How it works:
Oh, the knife works well good if you want to cut to a solid material. But how does the knife anyway? Pressing the button runs through the front of the small blade and you can cut it. But once you relieved the blade (ie when the blade comes out of the material to be cut) cushions the blade a millimeter forwards and then returns automatically to the knife. So the basic logic is as follows. If the blade is pulled out of the material to be cut, they will automatically disappear into the knife. Actually, well thought out. If one cuts cardboard, it is probably good as long as nothing like film or tape is what stability has a slightly different as the board - Zapp - even the blade is back in there and we can push out the blade again. And then there are still the most difficult - foil. Here the knife is almost ungebrauchbar. It comes one centimeter vorran to somewhere a rolled sheet comes. Zapp, the blade is in it again. Then one must rausdrücken the blade, the next 5 cm - Zapp, blade springs back to the film and again she jumps into the blade. Today I was able to cut a film. And for 1 meter film I was allowed 14 times to reschedule the film was cut. The same concerns also with plastic straps. Again, one must cut around some times. But for that there MARTOR also another special knife. , , , After lengthy attempts have then found that you have to cut fast with cardboard so that the blade springs back again immediately while you have to cut very slowly in films.
In addition, I find the blades also very "innovative". Rectangular. So you can only use the blade of the company Martor. So you can not use the classic trapezoid blades to yes can get anywhere. The rectangular blade, the blade is shorter than such with a different safety knives. An advantage of these blades is but one can use the blade in quadruplicate.
My Conclusion:
As another reviewer wrote for slicing sacks the knife is well suited. But for everyday life in (my) business life with a variety of materials, the knife is too much trimmed for safety and forgets what the knife is produced. Both one and only advantage of the stable body and the quadruple rotary blades can for my opinion, the many other disadvantages not wegmachen like this far too soft Rückfedermechnanismus or the special blades, which are for use does not rid. And then for a price of around 30 euros. Woow.
