I went to the local "Dollar Tree" store today, and they have changed
their labels. Now they call their cheap plastic knives "Utility Knives"
so maybe they are finally learning the proper names.


To me "utility knife" is the reusable metal handle with the often
retractible, and replaceable blade. "Box cutter" is the disposable type made
for cutting boxes. I'd never heard any other term for them.



I guess that you want me to buy one and take a picture for you?
