Samior S13 Small Slim Flipper Scalpel Folding Pocket Knife with 10pcs #24 and 10pcs #60 Replaceable Blade, G10 Handle with Liner Lock Pocket Clip, Utility EDC Keychain Knives, 1.2oz

I use a scalpel in my hobby craft and had previously purchased a DIFFERENT BRAND of folding scalpel knife that was advertised as being able to use sizes #22/23/24 blades. As size #22 blades are what I use and have a box of on hand, I believed what they advertised went with that one. However, when that knife arrived I found that it could NOT safely use size #22 blades, as it left the tip and a large part of the tip's blade *fully exposed when folded closed*, making for a very dangerous tool to use!! I was wanting to replace the non-folding scalpel handle I had been using with a folding model scalpel knife for that very reason... I did not want an exposed blade mixed in with my other tools, and blade covers kept slipping off the scalpel handle I was using. I returned that folding knife and found this knife, the Samior S13 Small Slim Flipper Scalpel Folding Pocket Knife, and am VERY happy with this purchase!! The handle is very slightly longer/wider, and the size #22 scalpel blade tip and edge are fully covered by the handle when closed on this knife (making it a safe folding knife to use with that size blade). I also found that this particular knife also supports handling a MUCH larger range of scalpel blades than the other knife, too. The other knife only supported the three sizes mentioned, but this knife is advertised to use sizes #18/19/20/21/22/22A/23/24/25/36 and #60 scalpel blades (and I have zero doubts that it will). The knife also comes with 20 blades as well (ten #24 and ten #60), giving me additional blades and options beyond using the size #22 blades which I am currently using with my hobby. The titanium handle makes for a solid and light frame, and the G10 fiberglass handle scales are well-known in the knife industry for being rugged, comfortable and durable. Another reviewer had mentioned that the pocket clip got in their way when gripping the knife and removed it (which can be easily done if desired, being attached by a star screw). Perhaps that person is left-handed, but I did not find this to be the case myself and the clip fits very comfortably in my hand when gripping it, using it, etc. I have large hands, but my fingers are rather slim so my grip might not be as big as theirs, either. I also think that the quality of this knife is much better than the previous brand's knife I had returned, as the size #22 scalpel blades I have (which are a very common brand also sold on Amazon) snap in easily and firmly on this knife, whereas with the other knife I actually had to use a pair of needle-nose pliers to get the lower portion of the blade to snap into place. The size #24 blade provided pre-attached on that knife snapped in easily, but not the #22's I have on hand. Overall I am extremely pleased with this knife in every way. It was priced only 26 cents more than the other knife, and the handle is just over 1/2" longer (3.6" versus 3.03"), but it includes 20 blades instead of 10 (and of two sizes), was accurately advertised for use with size #22 blades, is able to use a FAR larger range of scalpel blade sizes (including the long size #60 which seem to be very popular and are even included), feels more comfortable in my hand, and personally think is more durable and of a higher quality, too. I'm happy that I was able to return the other knife, but even happier that I was able to replace it with this knife which does exactly what I need it to do, works very well with the size #22 blades I have and use with my hobby, fits my hand nicely and comfortably, is durable and quality-made, and am confident will last me for years of use. Thank you!!

One of my favorite EDC. Fits into the warch pocket of my jeans, or the corner of a hip pocket. So small and light that I sometimes forget to take it off at the end of the day. Not really good for prying, but great for cutting. Replaceable blades give sharp edge without having to worry about dulling them. It can use the same #60 blades as my hunting knives. Action works well, and I've given up my blade at security checks instead of.losing the knife.

Bought this hoping to have a super sleek replacement for a Utility knife as a daily box cutter and all. Folding scalpels interested me because of the replaceable blades able to be ordered in bulk and their smaller form factor (plus many different shapes to choose from). A couple marks against the scalpel blades are availability and how flimsy they are. Hobby and Utility blades are both cheaper and more widely available meaning scalpel blades only have shape options and sterilization as an 'edge' (lol) I guess there needs to be some market development in order to push folding scalpel blades to the limit. This one is great, very satisfying to flick open with the extremely light blade, but my paranoia gets to me when closing it with the liner lock. There's seemingly only one button lock folding scalpel on all of Amazon and it looks chunky which is the opposite of what I'm looking for. So while I think I found another product that suits my needs better for now, I'm keeping my eyes open for the perfect folding scalpel. (If any one reads this I want this form factor folding scalpel with a button lock and deep carry pocket clip please 🙏)

This knife is very handy. Arrived quickly and well packaged. Although I carry a knife every day, there are times when you need one that is really sharp for a specific task. I guess I should add that I'm really fussy about a sharp knife and routinely sharpen all my blades, and there are times when you don't want to needlessly ruin the edge you just put on your every day carry knife. Enter this easily changeable blade flipper. Well made, easy blade change, almost handsome knife. Glad I got it. I didn't have it 8 hours when I heard a hissing sound from my lawn sprinkler. which was carelessly covered over with landscaping weed stop. Felt around, found the bulge in the plastic, and zip zip zip cut it free with 2 strokes of the razor sharp blade. Already paid for itself. Nice blade.

I've been on a kick lately of buying scalpel-blade pocket knives. I've always preferred compact utility-blade knives because I'm no good at sharpening blades so I prefer to just replace them. A utility blade is sturdier and more versatile, but scalpel blade knives are small enough to have on you at all times. This #24 / #60 scalpel blade knife is a bit larger (a more traditional pocket knife size) than the #11 blade knives I've got, but it is comfortable and has a solid liner-lock-open and closes securely. It uses an index finger tab on the backside of the blade-mount to flip out the blade, there's no thumb tab, so that's the only option to get it open. The #60 blades *are* a bit flimsy but they fit just fine, and I hear there are sturdier ones available that don't quite fit in this knife, but that doesn't bother me, I wont' be prying things with it. I like it, it's nearly perfect.

Light-weight, sharp, easy to change out(and order replacement blades). Durable! Haven't had any physical issues. Purchased additional one since able to toss the blades before boarding aircraft. Well worth the cost for box opening, specific cuts on the go, personal protection on a keyring. Thank you!

As someone who exclusively carries BenchMade knives I was a little concerned about build quality but this little thing is solid. Opens nice and crispy just like I wanted it too, and the blades are wicked sharp. I cut my thumb with it immediately after installing the first blade.
