The Jakar Aluminium Alloy Hobby Knife is perfect when you need to precision-cut lightweight materials such as paper, plastic, balsawood, film, cloth and foil. You'll find that the handle is slightly thicker than most hobby knives, making it stronger and heavier; the blade is larger too, for slightly heavier-duty cutting. The knife is made from a durable aluminium alloy, with a textured finger grip to make it comfortable to hold and easy to control. It comes with a plastic cap to protect both you and the blade when it's not in use.
