practical squeeze-grip | safety grind blade | smooth operation
The Slice 10563 automatic squeeze-grip ceramic safety knife combines automatic blade retraction (safety level 1) with a ceramic blade: as soon as the squeeze-grip is released, the blade retracts by itself – unlike the slider-based versions of the series, the blade is exposed here by briefly squeezing the grip, which is particularly practical when wearing gloves in everyday work. The safety grind of the ceramic blade additionally limits the cutting depth, independently of the retraction mechanism, and the smooth squeeze-grip mechanism can be operated without much force even with frequent daily use. Suitable for safety officers, logistics managers and production managers who prefer a comfortable squeeze-grip to a classic slider – for example because they regularly work with protective gloves. Safety knives overview
Which materials is this knife made for — and where does it reach its limits?
You open PVC or PET blister packaging cleanly along the edge without damaging the goods underneath.
Palletised goods with stretch or shrink film are cut open quickly and in a controlled manner when unpacking, without damaging the load.
You open sealed cartons along the adhesive tape without damaging the goods underneath through cuts that are too deep.
Not every safety knife is built the same – and you only notice it when it matters in everyday use. In the knife know-how section we show you at a glance how the Ceramic 10563 performs in the most important respects: from the safety mechanism and grip quality to blade performance. This lets you judge whether it suits your application. If you have questions about the choice, we are happy to advise you personally.
Everything about the Ceramic 10563 in two compact PDFs: the product flyer summarises features and applications – the technical data sheet provides dimensions, blade specifications and safety information. Both are free to download.

Download →The Ceramic 10563 is supplied with a K10526 (ceramic trapezoid blade with safety grind, rounded tip) – alternatively, the K10528 with a more pointed blade shape also fits. The knife accepts only these proprietary Slice ceramic blades – check compatibility when buying. Our recommendation for everyday use: the supplied K10526. Overview of all trapezoid blades
The Ceramic 10563 shares its housing concept, ceramic safety blade and safety grind with three other versions of the same series: Ceramic manual does without automatic retraction and is operated in the classic way with a slider. Ceramic auto uses the same automatic retraction as the 10563, but with a slider instead of a squeeze-grip. Ceramic fully automatic combines the squeeze-grip with fully automatic instead of automatic blade retraction. Choose the right version according to your preferred grip shape and retraction mechanism.

View U10564Alongside the Ceramic 10563, CURT offers other level 1 safety knives with different profiles: the bestseller US10 relies on classic automatic blade retraction at 2 cm cutting depth, with a slider instead of a squeeze-grip and without a ceramic blade. Ceramic auto (U10554) brings the same ceramic safety technology with a slider instead of a squeeze-grip. If you need a greater cutting depth, you will find it in the ceramic version with a 76 mm blade (U10560) or in the fully automatic squeeze-grip model (U10564).
