## Description

Product Description desertcart Basics Folding Utility Knife - Lightweight Aluminum Body with Holster From the Manufacturer desertcart Basics

Review: It cuts like a knife... - ...as it should, because that is it's one and only function. This is a great utility knife. The case included with the knife will surely make it easy to carry, I don't intend to carry it, but to each their own. The size, and design of this basic item as well as the blue color are so impressive I began to think maybe we put too much emphasis on the aesthetic of a utility knife, again to each their own. I will say that the design and material are likely a factor in the functionality of the utility knife and the feeling of the knife in your hand while using it, all good on that front. I can't really say much else considering it is a basic item and performs exactly as expected. I would definitely buy again unless the reason I am buying another utility knife is because the current knife has broken in a shorter than expected time frame causing questions about its durability. I will add this regarding some of the other reviews - first, I personally don't make a decision to buy a basic $5 or $6 item based on reviews. That would be be strange, honestly. Second, one review indicates the purchaser paid $3 (1/2 what I paid) and they expected the basic utility knife to be better as far as functionality. What? It opens, it cuts (great blade included), it closes. If you expect a utility knife to be something more than that, you might want to consider that a utility knife is not what you need. What else is a utility knife supposed to do? How could you expect anything more from a basic item that cost only $3 and was delivered to you? Another wanted the blade to have a smoother operation, I think they want it to flip open/shut like a switchblade. To that I say, good luck buying a $6 switchblade and remember that you bought a utility knife, not a switchblade. Definitely worth the price and extraordinary convenience of being delivered directly to my house.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ One hand operation.
*by P***E on October 15, 2025*

This Amazon Basics Utility Knife is a triumph of function over form. While this knife will never win a design competition, looks do not matter, utility does. I truly appreciate elegant design— a Spyderco folding knife is my trusty EDC in another pocket in my pants. This thing works perfectly. Even this lefty can open and close it with one hand. While I have to use my index finger instead of my thumb as a right handed person would, I never have a problem flipping it open and closed with just my left hand. It is strong, compact, durable, easy to grip, and changing the blades is quick and easy. I have never snagged or bent the pocket clip on anything. The bright orange color one that I bought is easy to spot if I ever leave it on a table. I grab this knife about 20 times a day to cut something or more likely open cartons. It is a trusted tool. One other feature is that it is cheap. If I carried a $40 titanium knife that I really like, I would be nervous every time a co-worker wanted to borrow it. If I lost this one, I would just buy another from Amazon.
