Perfect for crafts, surprised at the professional quality for the price, as I have seen some for much more. I don't see how they could be better than this, which is brilliant. Love it. Review: Super sharp... - This knife is extremely sharp and great for cutting card and paper. You can cut lots of other materials, but be aware that the blades are quite 'soft' and will wear out quite quickly if cutting thick / hard material. This comes with a safety cap, which is really important when I reach into my drawer without looking to pull it out! ## Features - Warning:To be used under the direct supervision of an adult - 079946360202 ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B000V1QV7O | | Blade Material | Stainless Steel | | Blade material | Stainless Steel | | Brand | X-Acto | | Colour | Silver | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 out of 5 stars 4,933 Reviews | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00079946360202, 03026981192654 | | Handle Material | Aluminium | | Handle Type | Non-Retractable | | Handle material | Aluminium | | Item Length | 5 Inches | | Item Weight | 23 g | | Item length | 5 Inches | | Manufacturer | X-Acto | | Material | Aluminium | | Product Style | Safety Cutter | | UPC | 079946236026 079946360202 | | Unit Count | 1.0 Count | ## Product Details - **Material:** Aluminium - **Brand:** X-Acto - **Colour:** Silver - **Item length:** 5 Inches - **Handle material:** Aluminium - **Blade material:** Stainless Steel - **Item weight:** 23 g - **Style:** Safety Cutter - **Manufacturer:** X-Acto - **UPC:** 079946236026 079946360202 ## Images ![X-ACTO #2 Knife with Safety Cap - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51Vj6A1FdQL.jpg) ![X-ACTO #2 Knife with Safety Cap - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61Ko7QIo1hL.jpg) ![X-ACTO #2 Knife with Safety Cap - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71kWeFEsiiL.jpg) ![X-ACTO #2 Knife with Safety Cap - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71lfQB2pzeL.jpg) ![X-ACTO #2 Knife with Safety Cap - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71AWMrLXYNL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: What is the difference between #1 and #2 ?** A: See the listing for the X-Acto X5262 Double Knife Set to compare the #1 and #2 handles. There are at least 3 different handle sizes, #1 is the most narrow handle, # 2 is a little thicker, and #5 is like a screwdriver handle. You can purchase different blades that fit into all the handles. The #1 handle usually comes with the #11 blade or the Z blade. The #2 handle comes with a larger blade usually the #2 blade. There are flat, round, and angle blades available that fit all of the handles and kits that include them all. **Q: How long is the blade? In other words, how thick a material would you be able to cut through? Thanks.** A: The blade is about one-inch long but tappers like a 45 degree angle to its tip. The tip is what most folks use. This is a knife for cutting out stencil film, not for cutting things like a regular knife. As far as using it to cut through a thickness, I would say no more than half an inch. But also bear in mind that you will have to go over the cut again and again until you get to the bottom of that one half inch. Only the tip does the cutting. **Q: How well does the cap stay on? Is this safe to throw in my pocket?** A: At first, the cap stayed on nice and snug. But now, for me at least, the cap is very loose and isn't strong enough to hold up its own weight, meaning if you have the knife upside-down in a cup or something, the cap will stay in the cup if you pick up the knife.I can't confirm that this will happen every time, however, because I've only owned the one knife. **Q: Which knife is good for cutting thick plastic bottles like moisturizer bottles?** A: This X-ACTO #2 Precision Knife is used for precision cutting of medium to heavyweight materials. It easily cuts wood, paper, plastic, metal, film, and acetate. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Brilliant, good size and REALLY sharp *by L***E on 4 October 2015* Brilliant, good size and REALLY sharp.

The blade itself is an incredible tool and saved me ALOT of time and made me much neater when working on projects. I use it to cut out mostly card put also very thin paper crafts - the more you practice with it, the easier it becomes; I would definitely recommend this to anyone! :) ## Frequently Bought Together - X-ACTO 2 Knife With Safety Cap - X-Acto® Knife Blades, No. 11 Blade With Safety Dispenser, Pack Of 15 - JTIEO 60 Pack Exacto Knife Blades #2, SK5 Carbon Steel Exacto Blades Refill Craft Art Knife Replacement Blades with Storage Case for Craft, Hobby, Scrapbooking, Stencil --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.cy/products/733978466-x-acto-2-knife-with-safety-cap](https://www.desertcart.com.cy/products/733978466-x-acto-2-knife-with-safety-cap) --- *Product available on Desertcart Cyprus* *Store origin: CY* *Last updated: 2026-04-26*
