Basic information about wallpaper knife blades

How to choose the right blade for a wallpaper cutter?

To choose the right blade for a wallpaper cutter, pay attention to:

Wallpaper material: for thin paper wallpaper, sharp blades are better; for thick or vinyl wallpaper, serrated blades are better.
Size and form of the blade: Adjust the length and shape of the blade according to the size of the project.

Safety knives with replaceable blades

What are the characteristics of safety knives with replaceable blades?

Safety knives with replaceable blades are tools that allow you to easily replace worn blades with new ones. They have a safety mechanism that retracts the blade after use, minimizing the risk of injury. This makes them more functional and safer to use, especially in precision work.

How to safely replace the blade in a knife?

To safely replace the blade in the cutter, follow these steps:

Carefully retract the blade: Make sure the safety mechanism is active and the blade is retracted.
Open the handle: If necessary, open the handle of the cutter to access the cartridge.
Remove the old blade: Gently remove the worn blade, taking care not to touch its sharp edges.
Insert a new blade: Insert the blade, taking care not to touch its edges.
Close the handle: for knives with a blade retracting mechanism, make sure the blade is properly retracted.

Always remember to be careful and avoid contact with the sharp edges of the blade.
