A cutting device is disclosed. The cutting device has a housing assembly, a cutting assembly that is movably disposed in the housing assembly, the cutting assembly being movable in a first axis, between a retracted position and an extended position, and an urging member disposed between the housing assembly and the cutting assembly. The cutting assembly includes a cutting member. The cutting assembly includes an end assembly, which is actuatable in the first axis, and a movable member that is movable relative to the cutting assembly. When the end assembly is actuated, the urging member biases the cutting assembly in the first axis toward the retracted position. When the end assembly is actuated, the end assembly moves the movable member in a second axis that is different from the first axis.

A utility blade includes a first blade retention feature positioned on a proximal edge of a tang of the utility blade. The proximal edge is angularly offset from a longitudinal axis of the utility blade. The first blade retention feature is associated with an engagement axis parallel to the longitudinal axis of the utility blade. The utility blade is configured to translate along the engagement axis to cause the first blade retention feature to engage with a first blade engagement component of a blade holder. The utility blade further includes a second blade retention feature positioned on a second edge of the tang of the utility blade. The second blade retention feature is positioned along the longitudinal axis of the utility blade and between the first blade retention feature and a distal tip of a cutting portion of the utility blade.

A knife comprising a handle and a blade assembly. The blade assembly includes a blade, a tang, and blade assembly connection structure. The handle includes a receiver configured to receive the tang, and includes handle connection structure. The blade assembly connection structure and handle connection structure are arranged to releasably lock the blade assembly in an installed position on the handle with the tang in the tang receiver.

A cutlery device includes a blade with an attached handle. Two longitudinal edges of the rectangular blade include a sharpened edge and a non-sharpened spine on the opposite side. The blade has a rectangular fence extending substantially perpendicularly from one or both (opposite) sides of the spine, and extending to the distal end. In one form the fence curves around onto the distal end of the blade. A hole or aperture may be provided in the blade to allow transfer of prepared foods. The fence may be integral with the blade and spine, may be permanently secured to the blade, or may exist as a separate part that may be attached to and removed from the blade.

A kitchen knife with a detachable knife handle sheath, the kitchen knife including a blade, a knife handle, a one-piece integrally formed knife handle sheath, and only one fastening bolt, wherein the knife handle sheath includes a first clamping portion and a second clamping portion connected to each other, an engaging groove fitted with the knife handle is provided between the first clamping portion and the second clamping portion, and the knife handle is inserted into and fixed to the engaging groove. The only one fastening bolt passes through a through hole of the knife handle sheath and a fixing hole of knife handle to fasten the knife handle sheath outside the knife handle. A method of replacing the knife handle sheath of a kitchen knife is also disclosed. The knife handle sheath is easy to be installed and removed and is convenient for replacement.

A tool, and a method using the tool, for skinning game animals. Specifically, the tool relates to a curved blade knife, sharpened on the curved, top edge, and possessing a spherical or non-spherical structure at the tip. The tool is used by forming a cut through the soft skin of a game animal, inserting the spherical or non-spherical structure through the cut, and pushing or pulling the blade such that the sharpened curved, top edge cuts through the skin and connective tissue. This tool and method takes advantage of the fact that the spherical or non-spherical structure at the tip of the blade is retained inside the skin and connective tissue of the game animal and the blade is automatically properly positioned to cut the skin of the game animal.
