December 23, 2009 – The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC), in cooperation with Dollar Tree Stores Inc., of Chesapeake, Va., today announced a voluntary recall of Tool Bench Utility Knives.
The utility knife is black or gray and measures about 6 inches long and about 1 ¼ inches wide. The package includes an extra blade. “Tool Bench Utility Knife” is printed on the front of the product’s packaging. “975942,” date code “93” and “UPC 639277759429” are printed on the back of the packaging.
The utility knife’s blade can slide past the blade support during use, posing a laceration hazard to consumers.
Dollar Tree has received one report of a cut/laceration with the utility knife.
Approximately 204,000 knives were sold at Dollar Tree, Dollar Bill$, Greenbacks and Deal$ stores nationwide from April 2009 through October 2009 for about $1.
