XA-1 Off blade knife

I’ve worked in the vinyl/sign/vehicle graphics industry for over 25 years, the OLFA 9mm XA-1 has been has been my go to blade of choice for the last 10. It’s more then strong and sharp enough to cut through a wide variety of substrates used in my industry, yet precise and stable enough to process the most delicate computer cut vinyl graphics we can create as well. I have always highly recommend it to anyone else in my industry to get the job done right the first time. OLFA “We Make The Cut” ( sounds good doesn’t it! ) All the best!

I currently working the sign industry. I buy these knives for all of my guys. Great for trimming up our prints and just general all-around cutting. Something just feels wrong if I don't have one in my pocket every day.

Bought this knife for architecture school projects, wasn’t disappointed. I own over a dozen different craft knifes and this beats them all, I can use this for hours on end and be super precise with it 10/10 recommend

Unlike other brands, this item is solid, not flimsy. It's durable, so it can resist many job site environments. The grip makes a difference when you really need to angle your cuts.

I use this knife daily as a graphic installer, nothing compares to the comfortable balanced grip, allowing a precise cut each time

This little knife is the one I reach for first every time, great for opening packages and breaking down boxes. Handy and light.

Very sleek design, with great grip handle to provide precision cuts when you need it most!
