I count 7 in mine.
Probably like 40-50 my rommate has a weird fascination with them. At some point they brought home a box if like 40 of the cheap ones. I assume it was part if some art thing they planed then never bothered with. Now they are all over the apartment.
Oh. Oh my. So, when a blade gets dull, you don’t replace the blade… you replace the whole knife? That’s some next-level utility knifing!
Lol no, but they are segragated blades you can use the slot on the back of one knife to break the blade of another. I can at least be less stingey about keeping them sharp this way. As they are cheap ones the blades do not last very long and rust out with even a tiny amount of moisture.
Still sounds like a sweet situation that could last for years.
About a thousand but I usually can’t find any.
This is the way of the utility knife.
0
Not nearly enough box cutter for a properly seasoned house.
Zero
Zero is such a lonely number.
I mean, 1, but we also have scissors.
If you can always find it, one is plenty!
Around four from my various retail jobs in the past. They’re all incredibly dull by now though
That’s why the blades are replaceable!
Hah true enough! I rarely use them but I really should get a pack of blades
None. I just use a pocket knife.
I often do too, but my wife doesn’t carry one, and if I’m breaking down a lot of boxes, I find that a utility knife does a better job.
At this point, there are probably at least 12 in various states of lost/found. I can currently locate 3.
This is a sign of dedication. Yours is the superior count.
One very old and very blunt box cutter, hidden in a junk drawer somewhere. It’s enjoying its retirement :)
I’ve resorted to using a cheap fruit knife if I need to cut any boxes.Sad utility knife :-(
Why don’t you want to replace the blade?
I don’t even know where this first one came from :) I think my dad left it lying around when he helped me move, many, many, maaaaany years ago.
I’m not a box-cutter kind of person I guess. It’s ok though, he’s not alone. The set of cheap screw driver bits and those hexagon thingies (allen wrench?) are keeping him company.The only good screw driver bits are the cheap ones, FWIW. They all strip out eventually, and I’ve never noticed much of a difference twixt the cheap and the pricey ones. May as well get cheap ones and recycle them!
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.
One in the toolbox in the garage. But it rarely gets used since I always have my Leatherman on me.
Ooof, that’s a concave blade profile to sharpen, too. But whatever works for you!

I think I have four; two in the basement in my toolbox (one medium-sized, one large), one in the kitchen and also a teeny-tiny one in my pocket that I carry all the time.
Ooo, tell me about your tiny utility knife! Is it one of those snap-off blade style, or one of those newer hi-tech designer replaceable blade with the smaller blades?
It’s one with a small ceramic replaceable blade like this
So it’s a hi-tech designer one… fancy! How’s the blade?
Works well enough for me, and unlike the small box cutter I used to carry, the blade doesn’t rust lol
I have four… somewhere around here. There’s usually one nearby when I need it.
That’s the most important thing: the correct amount is when one is always handy.
Like 3 or so, I ship stuff
A respectable number.
