If I've spent a day doing a lot of hand work or, even worse, ripping things
apart with a razor blade (I think it's holding onto the teeny blade that

Using a naked razor blade for anything is not only painful, it invites nasty accidents! Can you not use a scalpel to do this work? Several different handles and blades are available - I get mine from a hobby shop, and use them in scale modelling (aka building Airfix kits).
