The Cap That Saves Your Life Everyday
If you have used cutters or hand knives, you must have noticed the plastic cap at the end of the blade. To some, the purpose of it is pretty clear. The small addition is there to serve as protection to your hands.
The cutter has a long blade tucked between its plastic sides. If you uncap the plastic, you will see a pointy and sharp tip of the metal, which could easily bruise you had it not been for the covering. Therefore, the safety feature ensures that you could pull and push the cutter’s lever without hurting your hand.
