The History of OLFA Utility Knives: It began in 1956 when Mr. Yoshio Okada, the founder of OLFA, sought a solution for the need for a blade that would not lose its strength and sharpness. The superior quality of OLFA blades is the perfect result of a multi-stage production process. All OLFA blades are manufactured at perfect angles for high-grade clarity, long-lasting durability, and balanced cutting. The blades do not lose their hardness during tapered sizing and sharpening processes. Today, OLFA blades have become the international standard in the industry defined as "snap-off" blades due to their angle, length, and width. The name OLFA consists of two Japanese words, which translate to "blade break." The parallel, right-leaning rectangles in the OLFA logo represent these "snap-off" blades.
