With the Benchmade 7 Safety Cutter Series you'll be prepared for when you only get one chance. The 7Hook/Strap Cutter is a no nonsense cutting tool designed for rapid cut, engineered for reliability and built to keep cutting long after others fail. It's probably one of the most utility driven tools you can carry. The large handle of the 7 Hook design works well with gloved hands and the coated handle allows for better grip.
The unique hook shape design helps to prevent inadvertent cuts while still providing ample room for material to move through uninhibited. For sharpness, the average pull-cut weight of the 7 hook is less than 4 pounds though single ply, 5-bar seatbelt strap. Contrast that with 15 to 18 pounds for razor style cutters.
