KDS P-11 Plastic Cutter Features
The KDS P-11 is designed to be a versatile tool for plastics:
Primary Function: Specifically designed for scoring and snapping plastic, acrylic, and laminate sheets. You score a deep line with the straight blade and then snap the material along the score line.
Dual Blade System: The handle is designed to hold two different types of blades:
Straight Blade (PB-10A): Used for scoring the flat surface of the plastic sheet.
Hook Blade (PB-10): Used for trimming edges, removing burrs (shavings/rough edges), and cutting soft, flexible materials. The hook shape allows you to slice materials without damaging the surface underneath, similar to a flooring knife.
Blade Storage: The handle is convenient because it often stores 2 straight blades and 1 hook blade inside for quick access and replacement.
Blade Size: It uses KDS's specialized 9mm blades for plastic cutting (models PB-10 for the hook and PB-10A for the straight/sharper edge).
Locking Mechanism: Features a one-touch simple locking mechanism for easy blade extension and retraction.
Origin: Like most KDS tools, it is Made in Japan and known for its quality and precision.
In summary, the KDS P-11 is not a standard snap-off cutter; it's a precision plastic scoring and trimming tool that comes with both a straight scoring blade and a specialized hook blade.
