Whichever option you choose, it’s clear that the Palmer bridges the gap between a traditional everyday carry, a lifestyle accessory, and a pure utilitarian tool.

One of the most versatile tools out there, the utility knife takes many forms and serves many jobs. The Palmer is our take on the classic utility knife, made for modern living. It’s designed for easy carry and a great in-hand feel. More of a tool than a traditional pocket knife, it’s that go-to blade that gets used daily for opening boxes, putting a point on a pencil or simply cutting into a
hard-to-open bag of chips.

Two Palmers side by side. One in a clear handle and the other aluminum.

Recycled PCTG

The utility knife is a problem solver. Thanks in part to its replaceable blade, a utility knife gets used for stuff that your folding knife doesn't. It’s the blade you reach for to break down a box, slice through plastic wrap or open stubborn packaging. The Palmer, is a modern take on the classic utility knife, designed for easy carry and deft use. Its slim form sits comfortably in your pocket and makes for a great in-hand feel. It’s compact. It’s colorful. There’s no reason to leave home without it.

    Quality EDC

    First purchase from TJB and very pleased with the product. As the description states, it's an EDC problem solver. As I've found box cutters extremely useful around the home and vehicles, I have a fair number of them strewn throughout my spaces. The Palmer serves the same purpose, but is actually built to be compact, svelte, and personal. There are no rough edges, angles or protrusions on the exterior - it is indeed very 'palmable' and just begs to be on your person and not in a drawer. Excellent design!

    Looks great and feels great.

    Quality is top notch. I liked the smooth finish and how they made a standard blade to fit The Palmer.

    Lovely little knife

    I don’t use pocket knives very often, don’t like carrying a blade around. But this is more of a box cutter and has been very useful on multiple occasions. The fact that it is easy to switch blades and the refills are easy to find is a big plus. I find the form factor a little big for my liking, wish it were slightly smaller and maybe slimmer? But otherwise love it.
