CS40A: Click-N-Cut

Cold Steel

The issue most people have with a utility knife is weakness. Weak locking mechanisms, thin brittle blades, and an inability to do hard work. Cold Steel has addressed this problem and created a utility knife that's all about strength. And, it's affordably priced!

The Click-N-Cut, (patent pending) features elements that are based on the extremely strong, Tri-Ad lock, so it's built for strenuous cutting chores. It comes complete with three interchangeable blades. There are a drop point blade and serrated and plain edged versions of Cold Steel's utility blade. The blades are double the thickness of most blades on the market, so they can stand up to the most strenuous cutting, scoring, scraping and gouging tasks you can imagine. Exchanging a blade is easy. The handle has a lock bar release, similar to the release on a folding knife. When the lock bar is pressed the blade slides easily out. Keep the lock bar pressed and slide a new blade in and release the lock bar and the blade will "click" into place.

The Click-N-Cut includes a belt sheath that will hold the knife with one of the blades installed and it has integral pockets for the two remaining extra blades. Extra replacement blades are also available for purchase separately.

Cons: None
Versatile and durabile
This is the right product for "dirty" cutting jobs at work, opening packages, plastic strapping, trimming cardboard and shrink wrap etc. This is hard on the blade, but the Click-N-Cut easily loads a fresh, sharp blade and lets you sharpen the previous blade at your convenience.

Brilliant Utility Knife Upgrade
This is my go- to knife for jobs that would mess up my prettier knives. The blades are very thin and razor sharp, though they dull rather quickly. Which is why it comes with 3. Swapping out blades is uniquely satisfying, and the fact that the sheath carries spares is a huge plus. The handle is mostly rounded and smooth, so it trades some grip for long-term comfort. The branding is also surprisingly subdued. Cold Steel really did their homework, and this knife should appeal to just about anyone who needs a cheap working knife. And there is almost no reason for a knife person to buy a standard utility knife when this exists. Easily five stars.
