Irwin Self-retracting Safety Utility Knife

The Irwin 2088600 Self-Retracting Utility Knife is a cutting tool designed for safety and convenience. This knife features automatic blade retraction that springs the blade safely back into the housing when you release the slider button, reducing the risk of accidental cuts and injuries. The self-retracting design keeps the sharp blade protected when not in active use.

The dual-position design makes this knife adaptable to different cutting needs. The short 2 mm extension position is for box cutting, while the full extension position is for general utility work. The contour-grip ergonomic handle delivers a secure, comfortable hold, and the interlocking nose design reduces blade wobble for controlled cuts. With tool-free blade entry, replacing the included bi-metal safety blade is straightforward.
