Zibra Open It!

Filed under: Kitchen Gadgets,Misc. Gadgets — Christy Strebe @ 5:00 am

Zibra Open It at Amazon.comWe have all purchased items in hard-to-open vacuum-formed plastic packaging and after trying to cut it with scissors, we try to tear it and then get a giant cut from just trying to grab the item out – we swear to never buy anything packaged like that again, but then we end up buying something packaged that way again because it’s all sold that way.

The tool everyone need is the Open It!. It easily cuts through the plastic and even has a blade knife for opening boxes. If for some reason you also need a screw driver, it has that too. The blades are on a spring-loaded scissor mechanism similar to garden shears (except much shorter) and sharp enough to cut through layers of plastic and cardstock easily. I even used it to cut through the hard plastic bars of my CanSolidator, and anytime I want a straight cut through something thick or difficultly placed this is my tool of choice.

Here’s a photo of how you can use it to open packaging:

Use it to snip open a plastic tie:

The box cutter can zip open a CD or DVD wrapper:

It’s difficult to find one tool that can do so many things, but Open It! has been my favorite.
