Olight Oknife Otacle U1 Pro OTACLEU1PROPEEK (also known as the OKNIFE U1 Pro PEEK Utility Knife).
This is a compact, premium folding utility knife / multitool from Olight's OKNIFE (Otacle) sub-brand. The "PEEK" designation refers to the high-performance PEEK polymer (or PEEK-reinforced) handle material, which offers exceptional strength, heat resistance, chemical resistance, and lightweight properties. It combines a quick-change utility blade with a hidden folding screwdriver/bit driver, making it a versatile everyday carry (EDC) tool for box cutting, precise trimming, and light assembly tasks.
Key Features & Specs
- Blade: Standard replaceable utility blade (SK5 high-carbon steel or similar; quick-change mechanism). The exposed blade edge allows for deep, controlled cuts through cardboard, tape, plastic, leather, and more. Rail-lock or button-lock style for secure deployment and lockup.
- Handle: High-performance PEEK (polyether ether ketone) polymer scales — extremely tough, lightweight, and resistant to heat, chemicals, and impacts. Available in colors like Desert Brown or other variants.
- Multitool Feature: Integrated folding bit driver (typically includes a double-headed screwdriver bit or 4mm driver). The driver flips out for quick use and locks securely.
- Lock: Rail lock or crossbar-style lock for the blade; secure button or lever lock for the screwdriver.
- Carry: Deep-carry pocket clip for discreet EDC. Compact closed length (~3.5–3.7 inches) makes it highly pocketable.
- Dimensions & Weight: Closed length approximately 3.7 inches; lightweight design (~3.5 oz range depending on exact configuration).
- Additional: Tool-less or quick blade change system. Compatible with most standard utility blades. Designed for daily needs in office, warehouse, home, or field use.
The Otacle U1 Pro stands out from basic utility knives by offering a knife-like feel with a razor-sharp replaceable blade and the added convenience of a built-in screwdriver. The PEEK handle provides superior durability compared to standard G10 or Micarta options in the lineup. Reviews highlight its smooth action, secure lockup, and practical multitool functionality without excessive bulk.
