Automatic blade retraction | 8 mm blade length | only 37 g in weight
The Basic mini safety knife is a particularly compact folding knife with automatic blade retraction (safety level 1): after every cut, the spring pulls the blade back into the metal handle on its own and so protects against unintentional contact with the cutting edge. Folded up, the Basic mini measures only about 3 cm, and with its barely noticeable weight of 37 g it can be carried in a trouser pocket at any time. Designed for occasional use in everyday branch work – for example for opening cartons or cutting adhesive tape – it is aimed at safety officers and branch managers looking for a small reserve knife for infrequent cutting tasks.

Which materials is this knife made for — and where does it reach its limits?
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 Basic mini 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.
Automatic blade retraction — the blade retracts by itself as soon as you release the handle, no need to push it back manually.

The Ergocut mini offers a similarly compact blade at a low price, the Secunorm 175 scores with a slider on both sides and tool-free blade change, the Basic stands out with a wider handle for more grip, and the Mini Ceramic relies on a special safety blade. All four share the Basic mini’s automatic blade retraction of safety level 1.
