Blades are enclosed to protect your fingers.

Maintain a hygienic worksite by throwing disposable knives out when you’re done using them or if they become dull or worn. By throwing them out after use, you limit instances of sharing a tool with another worker and spreading germs. The blade is exposed on both sides of the head, so you can use both sides for double the life. Since the blade is built into the head, you can’t remove or replace it.

Metal-detectable knives have a metal additive that sets off metal detectors if they fall into your line. Use these knives in food processing environments, as well as other processing and production environments where contamination is a concern.
