—Description & details
The Allex Letter Opener opens envelopes and tape in one clean pass rather than tearing or snagging the paper. The blade and handle are cut from a single sheet of stainless steel, with a rubber ring lining the finger hole for grip. Hayashi Cutlery, founded in Seki, Gifu Prefecture, in 1946, introduced the design in 1975 and has kept it in continuous production largely unchanged since, earning Japan's Good Design Award.
