I carry two of my tool bag.

I have one huge industrial strength with replaceable retractable brake off blades.

Then I have one that's really small like the tiny plastic ones, but it's Even thinner and slimmer the case is metal.

And I have maybe half a dozen other random pocket knives.

Honestly ever since I got a Kershaw Static, I don't really use box cutters anymore. The blade shape is just perfect for the job and it stays sharp for ages

I love that blade shape! I haven't gotten a knife with that profile yet, because I know by now what I'm willing to carry in my pocket, and it's smaller than that.

I prefer the replaceable blade style over the break-off style, but the later is superior for keeping that tip sharp.
