Quick-change craft knife

The CRAFTSMAN CMHT10588C is a retractable utility knife built for die cutting and general craft work. A push-button mechanism swaps blades without tools, while an interlocking nose locks the blade securely during use. Integrated handle storage keeps spare blades at hand. The metal body weighs .35 kilograms and finishes in black and red.

Upgrade from fixed-blade knives

This model replaces fixed or screw-together knives that slow down blade changes and offer only a single cut depth. The three-position depth adjustment lets you match the cut to material thickness, and the retractable blade adds safety when the knife is set down. The jump is worth it when you switch blades or depths several times per project.

Sustained cutting sessions

Under continuous use the stainless-steel blade holds its edge through repeated scoring and trimming. The metal handle resists flex and dissipates hand heat, while the interlocking nose prevents blade wobble under pressure. Integrated storage means a fresh blade is always available without breaking workflow to search for a pack.

Questions about this item

How deep can the CMHT10588C blade extend for different materials?

The knife offers three variable cut-depth positions and a fully retractable blade, letting you match the exposure to the job without tools.

What is the button sequence to release a blade on the CMHT10588C?

Press the quick-change button on the side, pull the old blade straight out, insert the new one until it clicks, then verify the interlocking nose locks it in place.

Where are spare blades kept on the CMHT10588C so they are ready when the edge dulls?

The handle has an integrated storage compartment that holds extra blades, so replacements are always at hand without a separate case.
