If you want to level up, invest in a self-retracting box cutter. The blade snaps back as soon as you lift it from the cardboard. This is amazing because you’ll never accidentally slice your thigh while walking to the recycling bin.
Another game-changer? A cutting mat. It saves your table, your knife blade, and your sanity. Plus, it makes you feel like you’re crafting, not just destroying boxes.
And if you’re cutting tons of cardboard (hello, moving boxes!), try a serrated blade. The teeth grip the cardboard, so you don’t have to press down as hard. Your wrists will thank you later.
