These are amazing for small crafts. I picked these up to keep in my pocket as an everyday carry to cut boxes and also for small crafts in my journaling when I don't want or have a full pair of scissors such as if I'm cozy in bed or if I'm on the go. For my use cases, this is perfect! The build quality is fine but can be improved substantially very easily. I wish the company would implement this small change and I think all of the negative reviews would instantly vanish. Flaw AND Solution: The only flaw/complaint that I have is that the scissors are a bit flimsy. There is a lot of play side-to-side with the blades which makes the whole thing feel inaccurate and cheap. It's also sometimes awkward to cut because there is no lock when you're in scissors mode and pressing down often makes the scissors want to go back into the blade mode. Solution: If you were to place a small bit of material on the "right" side of the blades sandwiched between the plastic and the flat rectangle blade. This simple addition removes both of those issues. It removes the play side-to-side and also creates just a small bit of resistance that makes it harder to accidentally pull back into the blade mode. Overall, I would recommend these still and would be 5 stars if the company made this small change.

Its very balanced and can be used very well with one hand.great size fits well in my hand. Not heavy and very easy to use. Has a nice snap back and can slide easily between functions. Easy to figure out and suitable for all adults. Carabiner not included but it youd like you could attach one. Lastly, cuts good quality cardboard and also it cuts plastic as well as cloth very good. Pocket sized and one of the best in Japan

I purchased this to use at work. I have to open boxes and occasionally cut twine and ribbon. It works great and the small size allows it to easily slips into my pocket. Very comfortable to use and durable.

I really liked the idea of a box cutter with scissors. It’s manufactured in Japan, a country known for innovative stationary supplies of high quality. This product isn’t up to par with others. It does cut tape and it will open up to become a scissors but they are flimsy. They feel loose and have more side to side movement than I would expect. The metal is very lightweight. Its sharpness is marginal and I’m not convinced it’s durable enough for long term daily use. For the price I expected better.

Use it everyday for my mail and packages. The knife is sharp and works very well. The scissors are okay, kinda doesn't cut as well sometimes and are a little small, but they do the job well enough. Recommend for EDC or just having by the door as your designated mail/package opener

I bought this thinking this would be a pretty cool EDC idea. The scissors leave much to be desired. They don't really cut cardboard very well or anything very well. It can't cut paracord either. Just overall, the scissors on these aren't at the level of Fiskars, Victorinox, etc. I wasn't expecting it to be superb but the scissors on this are lacking.

More useful than the novelty I expected. I’ve used it to open packages, cut tags, and slice through packing straps with no problem. The sliding mechanism feels secure and eliminates the need for a cap, which I appreciate. It’s small enough to toss in a bag or hang on a keychain. Just don’t expect it to handle anything too thick or heavy-duty.

Nifty little pocket box cutter and scissor..

Just as described - works incredibly well breaking down boxes and the scissors were durable.

Muy buena compra

I love it but honestly if it was a metal body with a belt hook and the cutter setting came out a bit longer I'd pay 100$.

It is perfect for opening packages. I have it close to my front door for ease of use. It is a decent size in the hand and also isn't a pain to hold even when using the scissor function. Worth every penny
