The
unique cutting mechanism of the EEZYCUT TRILOBITE provides the
cleanest, sharpest, most effortless cutting action available. Everyone
experiences the “wow factor” the first time they use this ergonomically
designed cutting tool, as it slices and dices its way through line and
webbing. The EEZYCUT TRILOBITE is rated to cut line with ease,
repeatedly, up to 8mm thick, and can easily cut through larger line.
TheTRILOBITE also makes light work of all types of webbing. With
replacement blades, this cutting tool provides you with the best cut,
every time.
A Safer Cutting Tool
Open faced diving knives are notoriously dangerous, making them generally unsuitable in response to an emergency situation. TheTRILOBITE‘s
custom ergonomic design provides a level of protection, while still
delivering an easy, clean and efficient cut, making it the perfect
emergency cutting tool.
The Sharpest Cut – Every Time
The
ergonomically patented design uses a longer section of the cutting
edge, prolonging the integrity of the blade by dispersing the erosion.
As the line is pushed onto the blade by the frame of the tool, the cut
is much more stable, which not only provides a much cleaner splice, but
helps the blade retain it’s edge. Other “closed” cutting tools have one
pivotal stress point on the cutting surface which can quickly corrode
and weaken.
Specialty Blades
Normal “marine grade”
stainless steel, in terms of diving knives, is generally the name given
to 420 grade stainless steel, also known as “cutlery grade”. While it
has a good corrosion capacity in water, it does not have such a good
capacity to hold a sharp edge. Titanium can not create as sharp an edge
as stainless steel. The grade of stainless steel used in the
EEZYCUT TRILOBITE (440a) is known for its capacity to hold an extremely
sharp edge, while having very good corrosive qualities. When the blade
loses its edge or starts to corrode, you can easily put a new blade in,
and yet again have the sharpest, cleanest cut in the water. Washing in
fresh water after diving is recommended for all stainless steel knives
and blades. All stainless steel which is used in salt water needs to be
treated with care. Carefully coating any stainless steel blade in normal
divers silicone grease prior to salt water usage significantly prolongs
the life of the blade.
EEZYCUT only recommend EEZYCUT blades. Most carpet blades are thicker, and do not fit the TRILOBITE.
Effortless Cut
The
“WOW” factor that users experience when they first use the TRILOBITEis a
reflection of it’s unique and incredibly efficient cutting mechanism.
Replacement Blades
The
replaceable blades allow the user to always have the sharpest machined
edge, just when they need it most. Nothing is as sharp as a machined
edge, which means the sharpness of most open faced knives deteriorate in
their effectiveness from the moment of purchase. Replacement blades
with a machined edge make sense.
Double-Sided Design
The
double-sided design means that it can be deployed more efficiently in a
variety of situations, with less fiddling around. It also provides a
level of redundancy.
Redundancy
The
EEZYCUT TRILOBITE has two sides, and so it has REDUNDANCY built into
it’s design, but nothing can replace the true redundant safety feature
of two completely independent E.C.T.’s. The TRILOBITE‘s size and
effectiveness fits in easily to any inventory of cutting tools, or for
carrying multiple TRILOBITES.
Fits Anywhere
In the pocket, on the harness, or even on the wrist for effortless access.
The TRILOBITE‘s compact form factor makes it easy to use in tight or complex spaces.
