We care about two things at MARTOR: preventing workplace injuries and providing the sharpest (and strongest) blades possible. For these reasons, MARTOR presents our vast selection of concealed blade safety knives.

Offering our highest level of safety, these concealed blade cutters slice through any material put in front of them. The MARTOR team continues to innovate, delivering the best safety knives on the market.

To help you decide which safety knife is best for your business, we put together some of the advantages of our concealed blade safety knives and picked out some favorites from the MARTOR collection.

What Are the Advantages of Concealed Blade Safety Knives?

There are multiple types of safety knives, each with its own purpose. Safety scissors work best when cutting plastic wrap, corrugated fiberboard, and shrink wrap, whereas our spring loaded knives provide the ultimate level of protection against accidental slips.

Similarly, concealed blade safety knives eliminate the chance of the blade coming into contact with your skin while cutting through various industrial materials.

There are three main advantages of concealed blade safety knives.

Minimized Risk of Laceration

Cutting yourself with one of our concealed blade safety knives is difficult, and the blade is hidden from your fingers, so even if the ergonomic grips slip from your hand, you’re protected.

Knives account for around 30% of all workplace injuries, but thanks to our concealed blade safety knives, you can minimize your exposure.

Lower Chance of Product Damage

The second advantage of using a concealed blade safety knife is how it limits product damage. Even though MARTOR prides itself on the sharpness of our blades, the protective barrier between the plastic and blade stops cuts from breaking through into your products.

Elimination of Expensive PPE

Due to the high cost of workplace injuries, personal protective equipment has become a billion-dollar industry. Thanks to our safety knife technology, we provide businesses with the comfort of knowing their employees are better protected against severe injury.

While our concealed blade safety knives won’t completely replace the need for expensive PPE, we stand by our product’s ability to limit workplace injuries.

A Safer and Stronger Concealed Cutter

The first generation of concealed blade knives worked great when cutting shrink wrap, strapping, banding, box tape, etc.

But there was a significant drawback - they couldn't cut corrugate and other rigid materials. This resulted from the concealed cutter being too thick and getting jammed up when cutting heavier materials.

Our modern re-envisioning of the concealed blade safety knife addresses this problem.

MARTOR’s concealed cutters feature a thinner head to slice through various industrial materials, such as double-wall thick boxes and multilayer sacks.

Depending on the type of work you do, MARTOR offers two options for our concealed blade technology.

The disposable versions of our concealed blades are inexpensive and help keep initial costs down.

There is value in the slightly more expensive versions that feature replaceable blades. The handle lasts long, and the blades are cheaper than replacing the whole disposable version.
