Sabi Pill Splitter

Disclosure: I got this product as part of an advertorial.



This is a product from the Sabi company and is very unique. It is a blade-less pill splitter that can be found on their website at www.sabi.com for only $ 9.99. It is made of complete durable plastic with a rubber insert to hold the pills you are cutting in place. The plastic it is made from, is also BPA free.





 As you can see from the pictures above, the pill cutter is sent packaged nicely in a box and nestled in a clear plastic insert to keep it safe during mailing to your home. You can also see here in the picture to the right that there is no blade and the grey rubber insert on the white side of the cutter to keep your pills in place while the cutting process is taking place. I love this feature for households with small children living there. In case they accidentally get their hands on this cutter, it will not cut their fingers or other items they may try and place inside it. 




The size of this product is about the same size around as the top of a soda can making it a comfortable handy item.

You may also think that due to there being no actual blade it would be hard to cut the pills, but I assure you it is easy. You just need to make sure you have it flat on a firm surface and using the palm of your hand just press down. I found that it only took about the same amount of pressure as the ones with blades do. I have week hands and wrists and found no problem working this cutter. With this cutter being completely plastic, you can easily wash it if needed and not a worry about a blade becoming rusty. There is a slight unclean cut effect (crumbs of pill) but I also get that with my cutter that does have a blade. 



I take a bunch of vitamins and the ones in the picture are pretty big and thick. It just makes it easier to take so many if I do not have to swallow the complete pills whole. This pill cutter had no problems cutting right through them with only a little pressure. With this cutter I also get a more even split in the actual pill due to the rubber insert keeps the pill from sliding around like with other cutters. The back hinge is well built and seems like it would last a long time. 


I did notice one thing that you have to be careful of, if your pill has one of those protective coatings on it, the cut may be a tad off as you can see in the above picture. My suggestion after cutting a few of these is to just press down on the cutter firmly but a bit slower than normal and you will get a cut as shown above.

So If you are looking for a very well built safe cutter, this one is well worth the price in my book. It pays for itself in the long run. As you can see in this picture below (upper right corner of the picture), I keep my Sabi cutter right in the same box as I keep all my vitamins. Yes I am very pleased with this product.
