ABSTRACT:
A utility knife is disclosed herein having an elongated body pivotally housing a knife blade adapted to be moved between a folded position within a storage cavity and an operative position extended from one end of the body. A cutting edge is provided along one side of the blade and a finger grasping protrusion is integrally carried on its opposite side for moving the blade between its two positions. A snap shackle is carried on the end of the body adjacent to the pivot connection of the blade so that the shackle substantially fits the contour of the blade protrusion when the blade is extended into its operative position and so that the shackle is exposed when the blade is in its storage position. One side of the body displays a measuring scale and as an option, a pry bar may be integrally carried on the body end opposite from its end pivotally carrying the folding blade.
