These will be the company Christmas presents this year. (We, personally, give our career employees Christmas presents, in addition to the bonus from the company - usually something small, which is useful at work.)
Very useful design, especially for people doing a lot of cutting/unboxing tasks. Razor blades are cheap.

I agree…$85??

Interesting design on that blade holder with magnets doing the work. I might be leery of how robust of things it could handle. The major part of the cost of this unit is using titanium, the greatest of all metals according to the latests buzz words. There are better quality useful blade holders out there if they will be used as a real working tool. If only opening a few packages or tape, a pocket knife with their name on it might be a more appreciated momento.
I paid a pretty good price for a DeWalt folding utility ($60?) a few years back. I use it a lot and do no regret the purchase. I'll buy one of these in a heartbeat if my current knife goes south on me.
The bearings, lock, action and metal finish are really nice.
It certainly seems better than the benchmades I got them years ago - the super knives were carried/kept for years, until they seem to have gotten lost, etc.
No one carried their benchmades past Feb or so.
We do have proper utility knives at every place we expect to use them, but they always seem to wander off/sometimes we need to cut something in odd places.
(Oddly enough, the tin snips never seem to wander off, though I can't keep a box cutter at that location for more than a couple weeks.)

This is for, a razor blade? I get the desire for a better tool, esp if you're constantly opening and breaking down cardboard but, this seems a bit too upscale for the work that it does.

I have two Grandsons working construction. Both swear by these, neither carries a regular pocket knife. All you need they say and not too painful if you loose one.
As a gift, along with a bonus...very nice, useful and sure to be appreciated.
If you're goin' through hell, keep on going. Don't slow down. If you're scared don't show it. You might get out before the devil even knows you're there.
