Product Description
-------------------
" Slice ceramic utility replacement blades are designed to work
exclusively with Slice handles (sold separately) to optimize
safety and function. Compatible only with #10550 Smarty Manual
Cutter #10554 Smarty Auto Cutter #10558 Smarty Smart Retractable
Cutter. For other Slice Boxcutters (10400/10503) or Pen cutters
(10512/10513) or Craft Cutters (10514) please utilize Slice 10404
(Rounded Tip) or 10408 (Pointed Tip) blades. Both blade options
feature dual sided edges. 1.3 mm thick for strength and
durability. Patented blade with proprietary sharpening creates a
safer blade. Double sided equivalent of up to 20 single-edge
blades. Use the pointed blade tips (10528) for cutting thinner
items like paper. On the Mohs hardness scale, Metal blades are
rated 5.5 vs. Ceramic blades at 8.2, second only to diamonds.
Harder edges maintain sharpness longer, cut better, and require
replacement far less frequently. In fact, depending on use, you
can go weeks or months without having to replace a single ceramic
blade. They also last up to 10x longer! Saving Money Just Makes
Sense. A single Slice ceramic blade is equivalent up to 10
high-end double-sided metal blades or up to 20 high-end single
sided metal blades. In terms of safety, less blade changes also
mean less risk of injury. Pointed Tip or Rounded Tip? For thinner
items or to make more intricate cuts, utilize the Pointed Tip
10528 to cut paper, coupons, vinyl, etc. The 10526 Rounded tip
bladeds offer a safer approach that prevents accidental poking.
Both blades have a 1"" cutting depth and the cutting blade itself
is finger friendly. Slice Handle: Smart Retracting Blade stays
hidden by default. Press slider button to release blade up to 1”.
User must hold slider button while cutting, as the smart blade
will retract as the user pulls away from cutting material.
Preventing injuries when applying excessive force at the end of a
cut. Slice Handle: 5 Position Manual Blade Blade stays where
positioned. Press the slider button to choose from one of five
blade positions – customizing the blade length for each job. (Up
to 1”). After cutting, User must toggle slider button to hide
blade. Slice Handle: Auto-Retracting Blade stays hidden by
default. Press slider button to release blade up to 1"". User
must hold slider button while cutting - Upon releasing button,
the blade will retract safely. Ideal for Safety Environments.
Used by Fortune 1000 Companies More than half the Fortune-1000
use Slice patented ceramic blade box & safety cutters as a safer
alternative to dangerous metal blades to reduce injuries & lower
costs in manufacturing and operations. About the Startup Describe

come up with the idea for this product? Slice has a commitment to
donate 1% of all sales to fund Autism research, primarily through
our main benefactor, Lucile Packard Children's Hospital Stanford
University. What makes your product special? Our proprietary
blade manufacturing process combines a unique sharpening angle
and thicker ceramic material, resulting in a very unique patented
blade that’s safer to the touch vs. metal, and requires pressure
to initiate the cut — via our handles. Hence, general blade
handling and blade-replacement with Slice ceramic blades is
infinitely safer vs. those same activities with traditional metal
blades, yet still allows for a wide range of cutting
applications. What has been the best part of your startup

What has been the best part of your startup experience?
You can’t simply duplicate a metal blade in ceramic material and
achieve what we have created with our current products. There’s a
tremendous a of engineering required on not only the blades
and handles individually, but there’s also an incredible a
of engineering required on the combination of the handles and the
blades working together in order to produce the desired balance
of safer-usage and cutting capability. Even today, for our next
generation of products that are currently under development, we
spend the majority of our time finding the right balance between
handle and blade through trial and error and what seems like
endless prototypes. The best part definitely has to be seeing
peoples first-time reactions when cutting cardboard with Slice
and they realize how awesome the Slice ceramic blade is.
