Made for you. And you. And you...

One of the most versatile tools out there, the utility knife takes many forms and serves many jobs. The Palmer is our take on the classic utility knife, made for modern living. It’s designed for easy carry and a great in-hand feel. More of a tool than a traditional pocket knife, it’s that go-to blade that gets used daily for opening boxes, putting a point on a pencil or simply cutting into a hard-to-open bag of chips

Made for everyone.

More of a tool than a traditional knife, the utility knife is a problem solver. Thanks in part to its replaceable blade, a utility knife gets used for stuff that your folding knife doesn't. It’s the blade you reach for to collapse a box, slice through plastic wrap or open stubborn packaging. The latest addition to the TJB family, The Palmer, is a modern take on the classic utility knife, designed for easy carry and deft use. Its slim form sits comfortably in your pocket and makes for a great in-hand feel. It’s compact. It’s colorful. There’s no reason to leave home without it.

Slim and easy to handle, The Palmer sets a new standard in utility knife convenience. An aluminum body keeps it light, a lanyard gives you carrying options, and a variety of colors keep it fun. It’s sized to sit discreetly in the coin pocket of your jeans with a shape and feel that rests comfortably in your hand. Smooth blade action puts it to use, and our patent-pending mechanism for tool-free blade release makes blade changes a snap. Update your EDC.

Excellent EDC Utility

I'm impressed with the design to change blades and the smooth aluminum is extremely comfortable to use. An excellent gift for anyone that doesn't want to use their expensive knives on boxes etc.

1st time purchase

It's well built and i like the way you change the blades. Even the packaging that was boxed in was impressive.

Great in pocket knife

This is a neat pocket utility knife. Love the idea of being able to lend it out without fear of novices ruining my pocket knife. The contrasting lime green lanyard was a pleasant surprise. I would recommend .
