The practice of sport is not without risk. Isn't there a risk that a diver could get stuck in a net? Can't a fisherman need to cut a line? Isn't there a risk that a crew member on the trapeze will get stuck under his catamaran? Doesn't a kite rider sometimes need to get rid of his wing by cutting the lines? There are many situations where an effective knife is needed quickly. However, a traditional knife with the edge of its blade and tip remains aggressive and dangerous for the user. Especially in an emergency!
To solve this problem, Plastimo markets a safety knife with a double blade. Stowed in its case, no risk of injury. Once you get out of the case, it's the same thing! The blade edge is not accessible. And yet this knife cuts, even hard!
In its case, only the handle protrudes. The case, a hard plastic model, is designed to be attached to the belt or better on a strap of his lifejacket. In its storage, the knife has its head down. Just pull on the handle and the knife comes out - for safety, you have to pull hard.
With a rotating movement, you then take the rope to be cut from one of the two hooks that form the blade. And you pull to cut. Whether it is a rope or even a strap, the cut is clean and fast. The grip, with the handle closed and the non-slip coating, is excellent.
