Letter Opener Envelope Slitter Types

By Ryan Davis


Receiving personal mail from a friend is a thrill for most people. While most are used to getting lots of junk mail and bills, getting something personal lifts one's spirits. The amount of correspondence, coupons, bills, and other items sent and received daily is astounding. Opening each one can be a pain. Fortunately, using a letter opener envelope slitter can keep you from paper cuts and make processing items a breeze.

Businesses with high volumes need to use the electronic openers. They typically have a manual and automatic option. For the automatic usage, take a large stack of envelopes that are the same size and put them in the hopper. Hit the start button and they slide through individually and are quickly opened. The top is sliced off, leaving the contents intact.

Novelty shapes include swords. These are pretty popular since they are miniature versions of popular swords from movies and real life. Japanese and European types are very common and popular. Having one of these on your desk will impress most visitors. Some are shaped after swords that are found in popular games.

Wood and antique types are very elegant. The wood used for these is typically a very fine hard wood. The detail that is paid when creating these is amazing. The handles often include intricate designs. This type can be passed on from one generation to the next and makes an excellent gift for a business person in your life.

Magnetic envelope slitters are often used as promotional items. These are made from plastic with a small blade. The tip slides into the envelope making it easy to open. A company logo or business card can be printed on the item. They're also small enough to fit in a purse or pocket. They are often found stuck to cubical walls and refrigerators.

Some are shaped like miniature box cutters. These have a break away type of razor blade similar to the regular box cutters. The blade is retractable and their design is nearly identical to their larger cousins. Be sure to retract the blade when done using, otherwise it will be exposed. Because they are like larger cutters, they would not be allowed on airplanes for security reasons.

Most the styles are available as promotional items. The logo can be imprinted on the smaller plastic openers. The wooden and metal versions may have a laser cut logo into the handle. They're inexpensive and used daily which puts the company logo and name in front of customers constantly. While most people are familiar with these items, they are something that is always appreciated when received.

Avoiding paper cuts is a great excuse to own one of these. But, there are other reasons to have letter openers, including style and providing a fast, clean way to open envelopes. For businesses, the high end, electronic devices can move mail quickly and efficiently through the mail room and to its destination.
