Review: Great product - Works great, love this product.
Review: Electric box knife. If you can afford it, it’s well worth the purchase. - This tool is the best ~$100 I’ve spent in a while. The box knife has been relegated to opening the boxes, and no longer for breaking them down. I immediately got to work on a pre-spring clean breaking down boxes for my parents and again at my own house. It’s not a chainsaw so yes some of the thicker cardboard will be a little effort, but it had no problems slicing through some double thick cardboard today. It will eat through desertcart boxes in seconds. The blade is constant self sharpening so the edge is always sharp, some of the other options had an integral sharpening stone but you had to engage it. The battery is on the plus side of adequate. After about 2 hours on the 2ah battery it needed topped. I went ahead an bought the 2 pack of the 4ah batteries so I can charge one and run the other one, although given my experience with it a single 4ah battery would be more than sufficient for most cutting sessions. The jaws aren’t very wide so it wont open some plastic packages, but it should at least give you a good start if there is a thin edge. Do you need it? Eh, depends on how much you cut down stuff for recycling and how much time you have. It makes it to where I can break down boxes into much smaller sizes much quicker, saving time and space. You can do the same with a box knife-I’ve done it, but it will take you at least 2x the time if not more.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Will it cut garage floor vinyl flooring material cleanly?**
A: No, unfortunately, it doesn't cut vinyl flooring worth a darn.

**Q: Does this cut synthetic turf?**
A: I really don't think it will. I had tried to cut a heavier version of cardboard and it didn't do well.
It only has one blade and lacks in power. If more blades were available in a variation of serrations to better match materials, would help a lot. This essentially is a rotary scissors. Makita makes a 3-1/8" cordless saw, model SH02Z-R 12 volt MAX CXT that may serve you better. A variety of blades are available for it from Makita, as well as from other manufacturers.

**Q: Does this tool come with the batteries and the charger. It says tool only however on then further down it says Yes on the line item for batteries and**
A: The kit comes with a battery and a charger; however, the blade came attached and there is no blade locking pin so you will have to improvise if you want to change the blade. I used a piece of bent coat hanger. Makita Customer Service was unfamiliar with a replacement part and you will not likely find it on line because the tool is brand new. If you want to search, the blade and pin come together as part number 198604-1.

**Q: Can it cut wall panels?**
A: no, thin panels, carpet, soft goods....

This tool is the best ~$100 I’ve spent in a while. The box knife has been relegated to opening the boxes, and no longer for breaking them down. I immediately got to work on a pre-spring clean breaking down boxes for my parents and again at my own house. It’s not a chainsaw so yes some of the thicker cardboard will be a little effort, but it had no problems slicing through some double thick cardboard today. It will eat through Amazon boxes in seconds. The blade is constant self sharpening so the edge is always sharp, some of the other options had an integral sharpening stone but you had to engage it. The battery is on the plus side of adequate. After about 2 hours on the 2ah battery it needed topped. I went ahead an bought the 2 pack of the 4ah batteries so I can charge one and run the other one, although given my experience with it a single 4ah battery would be more than sufficient for most cutting sessions.

### ⭐ Two uses and that’s all she wrote
*by C***O on January 19, 2026*

I used this thing twice and the motor started to cease up. Stop and go, no longer continuous. Stay away from the frustration.
