T/A OLFA UK OLFA’s multi-purpose ESK-1 Beginner Craft Knife is the ideal compact, user-friendly, safety snap-off knife for crafters of all ages. Its biggest feature is its safety-inspired blade coverings which limit blade exposure, create a safer blade angle and reduce the risk of injury. This gives you a high-quality cut whilst preventing the blade from snapping during use. The ESK-1 comes pre-loaded with four segment snap-off blades and a dual purpose stand. The egg-shaped stand doubles up as a blade snapper and blade disposal case. To change blades, simply snap your used blade off using the orange slot at the base of the stand and the next new blade will automatically slide into place. The used blade is safely stored within the base of the stand, so you can continue working on your project right away. Its body has a lightweight construction with curved edges for easy, comfortable handling during a variety of cutting tasks. Its symmetrical design makes it user friendly for both left-handed and right-handed use. It comes in a contemporary white colour with a smooth matt finish and bright orange details on both the base and blade coverings. The ESK-1 is a diverse tool that can be used for a variety of tasks including opening parcels (whilst preventing damage to the product inside), card making, paper crafts, scrapbooking and so much more. So whether you’re starting out as a crafter or encouraging your children to explore their creative side, then the ESK-1 is a perfect tool for you. +44 (0)20 8204 1422 www.olfauk.com 12.
