Lastly, Milwaukee has released a Carton Blade for those who use their blades to open boxes. These blades have a lifespan three times that of the General Purpose Blade, but feature a rounded tip to prevent damaging the contents of your containers and reduce the risk of injury. All of these blades come in five and fifty-pack options, with the General Purpose Utility Blade also available in 75 and 100-pack options. Prices have yet to be announced. The blades started shipping in June 2013. For more information, please visitย milwaukeetool.com.
