Integrated Scoring Knife

The Integrated Scoring Knife (ISK) is the next evolution of the Disposable Knife System (DKS).

Combining the function of the cutting knives, counterknives, and scoring knives into a single, lightweight knife helps to reduce maintenance and improve strand quality while retaining the safety benefits that DKS offers.
