Abstract: Utility knife with a replaceable blade and a system and method for determining the End of Life of the blade comprising one or more sensors for detecting blade use, a communication unit adapted to establish a wireless connection to a computer cloud network and to send and receive information via wireless transmission to be stored and processed by a control system with a control CPU and a control memory, the information being a series of values recorded by said sensor by time, stored in the control memory as data sets using machine learning or artificial intelligence for determining common or similar values of recorded parameters in the stored data sets or of values calculated from these parameters according to a predefined logic, for use as reference values indicating the End of Life of the blade.

Abstract: A knife with a pressure indication means with a sensor which is actuated when the cutting edge is forced onto a material, a processing means receiving a signal from said sensor and sending a signal to a notification means indicating the pressure as soon as a predefined condition is met.

Abstract: A hand cutter comprising a housing, a blade assembly, an actuator assembly, a gear assembly and a retraction means with the gear assembly connecting the actuator assembly to the blade assembly in such a manner that a movement of said actuator slide is transmitted to said blade assembly via said gear assembly with a gear ratio of said gear assembly such that moving said actuator slide moves said blade assembly by a larger distance.

Abstract: A cutting hand tool with a blade slide and a lower front part of the housing that pivots down providing access to blade securing means if the blade slide is in the extended position with additional pivoting blade securing means connected to the blade slide providing access to the blade for replacement in the horizontal open position.

Abstract: A cutting blade partially covered with one or more layers covering a part of the blade, with one of the layers being a wear layer which has a different visual appearance than the underlying material of the blade, and wears away more quickly than the core material when the blade is used, so that the underlying material of the blade is uncovered as soon as this wear layer is completely removed in partial areas, providing a clear visual signal that it needs to be replaced.

Abstract: A surface scraper tool for removing coating from a smooth flat surface with a blade holder having a bottom surface defining a surface plane and a lateral guide face defining a guide plane and with a blade protruding from the front of the blade holder forming a predefined scraping angle with the surface plane and a sharp edge extending across the whole width of the blade holder in the surface pane and not extending beyond the guide plane.

Abstract: A scraper hand tool with a retractable scraper blade, allowing the scraper blade to be moved in and out of a protected position, by including springs, which provide the force required for automatically moving the scraper blade from the extended to the retracted position.

Abstract: A hand cutter with a retractable blade guard providing an unimpaired view of the blade, when it is placed on the object. The blade guard is unlocked and retracted by a trigger mechanism, which is activated by closing the hand around the cutter handle. The blade guard remains in the retracted position until the trigger is released or a relocking mechanism is activated by putting the blade to use by cutting the object.

Abstract: A cutting hand tool which allows easy cutting of thin materials, such as film, paper, packaging or other flexible materials even if the material is folded or stretchy such as shrink- or stretch-wrap, without requiring a strong force, while at the same time protecting the user from injuries. The cutting blade is placed in a recess to prevent accidents and can be rotated or laterally moved by activating a trigger so that an additional force can be applied to cut the material whenever this is required to continue the cutting motion, when the material is rolled over, folded, bunched or reinforced and therefore requires an additional cutting force.

Abstract: A hand cutter with a blade guard providing the highest possible protection from accidental cutting. The blade guard can be effortlessly activated from the locked position by a trigger, which is achieved by closing the hand around the cutter handle. The released blade guard remains in the released state until the blade has been put to use by cutting the object, when the blade guard release is removed so that the blade guard is automatically relocked as soon as the blade guard returns to the initial protected position.
