OLFA 9mm Snap-Off Utility Knife Blades are a market leader for precision hand cutting in the Blades Cutting Tools category thanks to their segmented snap-off design that keeps a fresh edge affordable and instantly accessible. Technically optimized for fine scoring, detail trimming and light materials, they offer a much lower per-edge cost than heavy-duty utility blades and complement power saw blades like DEWALT, Diablo and Freud by handling tasks those saws are overkill for.
