In further proof that 2024 is the year of the EDC utility knife, Ship John — the brand that recently released a gorgeous tribute to the Stanley 299 — quietly offers a pair of razor-based Cutters that definitely fit the everyday carry bill, albeit with a luxury spin.
There’s a big catch, however, as they’re also extremely limited edition — only 25 examples of each were made. And while they’re certainly on the pricey side of the spectrum, their construction, rarity and pedigree mean they’re still highly likely to sell out very quickly. So, what makes them so special? Allow us to illuminate you.
These exclusive cutters are made from some seriously high-end materials
Interestingly, though these are Ship John-branded, they were actually built by Good Art HLYWD (a brand that has masterfully blended high-end luxury and genuine grit-and-grime craftsmanship) and were based on the latter brand’s Uline utility knife. That also means they got the same material treatment: a body crafted from genuine .925 Sterling Silver. As if that’s not enough, they were also made by hand in Los Angeles, meaning each one was pored over by a real craftsperson, not just some machine stamping them out.
At just 3.15 inches long, these gorgeous utility knives could feasibly fit on your keychain.Ship John
Of course, that wouldn’t mean much if they didn’t have some functionality that made them usable. Luckily, these are bonafide EDC-ready, as they’re spring-loaded and fitted with a simple slider deployment mechanism. This allows their standard-sized utility razors to do their job when you need them and to retract safely for storage and transport between cutting jobs.
They’re individually numbered and selling out quickly
The downside to this sneaky release is that a number of the examples of these classy Cutters have already sold. In fact, the Butcher Paper one is already up to No.9 and the Bull version is up to No.16. Just as a quick reminder, only 25 of each were made, so that means there are only 16 left of the former and nine of the latter.
That means only half of these opulent utility knives are left (as of this article), which lends credence to our earlier claim that they’re going to sell out super quickly. Priced at $710 apiece, these Cutter utility knives are available exclusively through Ship John (but not for long), so pick one up while you can.
