Which tool is used for cutting cardboard boxes and gaylords?

• A. Tape Splitter
• B. J-Knife
• C. Klever
• D. PPE

Answer: (C)

Focusing on a tool that safely handles thick carton material and large containers in a busy warehouse is essential. The Klever cutter is designed specifically for cutting cardboard boxes and gaylords, offering a controlled cutting action with a retractable blade and protective features that minimize the risk of slips, nicks, or damage to contents. This makes it efficient for opening and trimming multiple layers of cardboard and tape in one smooth motion, while also reducing hand fatigue.

Tape splitters are only for removing tape and don’t cut through the cardboard itself. A J-Knife is a general box cutter, which can work but often lacks the safety and blade control optimized for heavy-duty cutting of large cartons. PPE isn’t a cutting tool at all; it provides protection but doesn’t perform the cutting task.
