Superior quality and product support have made Burris the preferred worldwide supplier to a multitude of industries. The Burris Knife Holder is made with pride in the United States of America. Outstanding performance and value are guaranteed. As always, Burris products are competitively priced!

Standard Features

Precision ground and hardened side plates, knife blade manufactured from high-alloy steel, 19 or 22mm ball bearing, tempered steel fork assembly, spring loaded dovetail clamp, braid-reinforced air hose, and quick-disconnect air coupling (American or European style).

Special Holder Features

Quick Clamp

The patented Quick Clamp is one of the most popular options on the Burris Knife Holder. The Quick Clamp contains a patented mechanism which locks it to the dovetail bar thus permiting insertion or removal of a Knife Holder from the dovetail bar without requiring hand tools for service access. This mechanism also allows changing the cut-width of the customer's product by easily shifting the position of the Knife Holder on the dovetail bar without using tools.

Back-Pullout Knife Holder

The Back-Pullout Knife Holder is designed to allow the user to remove the blade, bearing and axle without removing the Knife Holder from the dovetail bar. The Burris Back-Pullout Knife Holder is built with a specially designed and angled fork assembly and slot and specially machined side plates which permit removal and insertion of the blade/etc. from the holder for maintenance without disturbing the critical machine set-up & spacing of that or other Knife Holders.

Manual-Adjust Knife Holder

Burris's new Manual-Adjust Knife Holder is available for manual control of precise cut depth. It is available on Knife Holders designed for circular blades or razor blades. This feature is especially useful for Knife Holders when air (air hoses or pneumatic hoses) cannot be used to control pressure of knife holder/circular blade to the mandrel or added precision is needed. The Manual-Adjust Holder with Razor Blade works well when a customer wishes to utilize a razor cut capability on a machine designed for circular blade use (typically a single mandrel web roller).
