Level 1 – safe

The blade springs back as soon as you release the slider. For almost all cutting jobs.

concealed blade

Level 3 – ultra safe

The blade sits behind a protective hook. Fingers and goods cannot reach the cutting edge.

Why safety knives

What is a safety knife – and what does it bring to a business?

A safety knife is a work knife that protects itself: after the cut the blade returns into the handle automatically or sits behind a protective hook. The edge stays where it belongs – in the material, not in the hand.

01

Preventing cut accidents

Cuts are among the most common accidents at work – usually caused by an exposed blade. With a safety knife the blade is back in the handle after the cut or is never exposed in the first place. If you slip, you do not hit an edge.

02

Reducing damage to goods

The blade extends only as far as the cut needs – 1 to 2 cm on many models. When opening cartons the contents stay intact, and film and packaging are not cut through.

03

Saving costs

Every cut accident means downtime, and every damaged item means a write-off or a complaint. Then there is the tool itself: a good knife cuts with less force, the blade lasts longer and blade changes are quicker.

Why CURT

Independent advice, tested in your operation, properly introduced

We do not belong to any manufacturer and carry safety knives from 22 manufacturers. We support the switch to safety knives from the analysis through to training the last user.

Workplace analysis

Together with you we analyse the applications and requirements for every workplace – on request by our field service at your site: what is cut, how it is cut, under what conditions (e.g. deep-freeze, spark-free), how safe it needs to be and what you use so far?

Product test

For each workplace we select 1 to 3 suitable knives. A small team tests them for 1 to 2 weeks in your operation. Afterwards you decide on one safety knife.

Long-term test

The selected knife runs for at least 3 weeks in normal operation – ideally with employees who are open to new things. They later become advocates for everyone else.

Introduction

Once the knife has proven itself, we switch all workplaces. On request we support the introduction with training, flyers and our own product videos.

Advice and test samples

Request test samples for your workplace

Three details are enough for us to answer specifically rather than generically:

  1. What do you cut?
  2. Roughly how many cuts per day?
  3. What do you use today?

The request opens your email program with the three questions as a template. Prefer to call? Mon–Fri 8am–6pm · Sat 8am–4pm.
