Auto-Retractable Utility Scraper
DESCRIPTION
The Slice® 10593 Auto-Retractable Utility Scraper is another finger-friendly® addition to our expanding line of safety tools. It features a rounded-tip 10526 safety blade housed in a sturdy, ergonomic, reinforced nylon handle with soft grips for user comfort. Compared with manual scrapers, auto-retractable scrapers typically risk causing hand strain as the user absorbs pressure in the thumb that keeps the blade extended. Slice solves this problem by introducing SureScrape™, a mechanism that reduces strain so users don’t have to choose between safety and comfort. As with all Slice safety ceramics, the 10593’s blade is oil and lubricant free, chemically inert, and never rusts.

MORE ABOUT THE SLICE AUTO-RETRACTABLE UTILITY SCRAPER
What is SureScrape™?
Every so often a design comes along that’s so intuitive, it feels natural—even familiar. SureScrape is one of those innovations that quietly does its job so well that you won’t even notice it’s there. It’s a design solution to a common problem with auto-retractable scrapers.
In contrast to an auto-retract knife, where a user holds the slider to expose the blade, then pulls the blade through the material to cut it, an auto-retract scraper requires the user to extend the blade then push against the material. This causes hand strain, as the thumb must both hold the slider and absorb the pressure of the scraping motion. It’s not noticeable at first, but over time that pressure strains the thumb and makes the tool difficult to use.
Slice looked at this problem with fresh eyes and created a mechanism that, when the scraper is in use, absorbs much of the excess pressure, giving the user’s hand a break. SureScrape doesn’t interfere with the spring-loaded retraction once the slider is released, so users no longer have to choose between safety and usability. Slice’s innovative design—we’re the first company with such a mechanism—improves ergonomics and safety at the same time.
