Auto-Retractable Ceramic Blade Utility Scraper

The Slice 10593 Auto-Retractable Utility Scraper is the latest finger-friendly addition to our expanding range of safety tools. Housed in a sturdy, ergonomic, reinforced nylon handle with soft grips for user comfort is a rounded-tip 10526 safety blade. Auto-retractable scrapers, in contrast to manual scrapers, typically lead to hand strain as the user absorbs pressure in the thumb to keep the blade extended. Slice has addressed this issue with SureScrape, a mechanism that reduces strain so users do not have to compromise between safety and comfort. Just like all Slice safety ceramics, the 10593's blade is oil and lubricant-free, chemically inert, and never rusts.

The choice of ceramic blades offers hardness and sharpness advantages. Ceramic blades rank at 8.2 on the Mohs hardness scale, much higher than metal blades at 5.5, second only to diamonds. This hardness ensures that edges remain sharp for longer periods, cut better, and need replacement less frequently. A single ceramic blade from Slice can last up to 10 times longer than high-end metal blades. Additionally, fewer blade changes mean less risk of injury, emphasizing safety. The utility scraper features two preset blade positions for protection when not in use, along with soft-touch comfort grips and durable construction to withstand hours of scraping while reducing hand strain.

Slice has revolutionized ceramic cutters, utilizing advanced technology to create a safer and more efficient safety knife. Our unique blade-manufacturing process combines an effective, durable, and finger-friendly edge not found in other ceramic cutters. The product is described in three words: safe, elegant, and innovative. The idea for this product came from Slice's commitment to donate 1% of all sales to fund Autism research through our main benefactor, Lucile Packard Children's Hospital at Stanford University.

The best part of the startup experience has been the engineering challenge of creating a balance between the ceramic blades and handles to ensure safer usage and cutting capability. Slice's products have garnered positive reactions from users due to the innovative ceramic blades, offering a safer alternative to traditional metal blades.
