Xacto X5282 Basic Knife Set

This is a great set of Xacto blades with 3 different Handles. The Wooden box is a benefit too, the last thing you want to do after buying loose Xacto blades is have them floating around in a drawer.

The Xacto brand is quality (not like some of the off market imitators). You may also want to purchase extra blades of a specific type for large projects.

I purchased this set becuase I work a lot with plastic hobby models, and lately I been increasing the use of plastic cutted to specific forms, I used another knife and it snaped in two with the exacto the blade quality is top not so I dont requiere that much force. exellent purchase.

The item packaged comes with more than what I actually needed for day to day use, and as well the fact that the item itself includes the wooden case to store the blades and handles makes it better than previous x-acto knives or hobby knives that i have previously owned.

The knifes cut great and you have plenty to choice from. I can't say that I was disappointed with the box because it does what its supposed to which is hold blades/knives and I don't plan on having it displayed in a museum.

Again, wondering selection of blades and a good looking box to hold them in which is why I went with this set.

This is a good set, with nice quality cutting edges, but was a little disappointed with the box (MDF with a veneer rather than what appears to be a solid wood box in the pictures as of 4/29).

The other thing that really surprised me was the poor finish to the non-cutting portion of the blade. Many of mine have chips or worn indentations (possibly from finishing the actual blades?) and what appears to be a bad finish on the 'backs' of the blades. Putting your finger gently on this to help guide a cut really makes it seem like you're knicking your finger on solid sandpaper. I improved it somewhat by grinding the backs a little with a file, but definitely surprised about the lack of quality finish from a name like X-Acto.

Still, it does the job of cutting well and the box does hold everything together, although I think the fragile plastic inserts will be useless before too long. In the top of the box the spare blades are held in place by a magnetic strip, and I anticipate pulling this from the insert and gluing it directly to the inside to of the box.

(PS - don't forget to give the blades a good clean before using them. There was a substantial oil/sheen on mine that would have marked e.g. a paper project)
