Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of OpenX Dual Blade Universal Package Opener
Customer Review: Save your money for something else
Summary: 2 Stars
My wife bought this to open those annoying plastic clamshell packages. I wound up using a scissors instead. Here's why.
This product comes with a small retractable utility blade (you can buy one for a dollar in Home Depot) that barely extends. The theory is to use that blade to start a cut in the clamshell, and then effortlessly slice through with the fixed blade in the opening of this product. I tried it without success on a small clamshell package, and then just used an ordinary scissors, which worked fine.
We keep this in the kitchen and use it as a utility knife to cut through the tape on packages, so it's not a total loss, which is why I gave it two stars instead of one. But even a deluxe utility knife costs much less than this product, and also has a blade that is larger and protrudes further (I own one) and hence cuts more easily, not to mention that the blade is replaceable (unlike the blade on this product).
Bottom line: I didn't want to throw this out, so I am using it. But I would not recommend this to a friend. Instead I would tell a friend to look at the Zibra Open-It (which I have reviewed on Amazon), which is a much better product. However, I would also tell a friend to look around his house to make sure that he does not already have a utility knife and a heavy duty pair of scissors or shears that will accomplish opening clamshell packages.
Description of OpenX Dual Blade Universal Package Opener
OpenX is the original Universal Dual Blade Package opener designed to open those difficult plastic packages along with most every type of package. Great for boxes, express envelopes, shrink wrap on water bottles, pill containers, snack bags and more! The unique dual blade design allows you to use the retractable blade to pierce the plastic and then insert the hook of OpenX to Push and Slide to Get Inside. The retractable blade is short so when cutting open boxes, you won't cut the contents inside.Kitchen and Housewares
