Accutrax Pencil Razor Blade

[Sean7a]

Very cool!

It's simple, someone took a utility razor blade that goes in your everyday box cutter and made it outta lead, graphite, carbon fiber, etc mix.  The entire blade is now a pencil.

See more here.

Is the green utility knife body (pictured with the blades) included?  It's not mentioned in the description, but the product is a "6 pack," and only 5 blades are pictured, in addition to the knife body.  And perhaps it's just happenstance, but the knife body seems to be close to Festool green.

Law, thanks for asking those questions.  Seems photo and site were unclear / misleading.  You're spot on.

Only 6 blades included.  Knife is not included.  Festool green is a coincidence.

woodpecker has six blades for $9.98 at the moment(sale price), the blades would be worth trying on first looks i'm thinking.

In the description on woodpeckers site:
"These blades are graphite and thin to produce razor sharp lines. They do not respond well to too much lateral pressure. Do not try to bend them, they will break."
