5 out of 5 stars IT'S.....GREAT!   November 20, 2007
Mike Miner (Tennessee)
I've abused this thing every way that I can, and like a Timex, it takes a licking and keeps on ticking! Works great and is easy and safe to use.


4 out of 5 stars Fast knife and easy to operate with one hand, and Lifetime Warranty!!!   July 3, 2007
Paul Weber (Plainville, MA United States)
I bought one of these about 2 to 3 years ago and I use it every day to cut open boxes. It has been used hard and abused. I dropped it one day and it fell right on the open blade on a concrete floor. The blade no longer locked open, so I took it apart and tried to fix it. Unfortunately there is a small tab that broke off that I could not fix. So I order 3 more to replace it (we like them that much). When they came in I noticed that they had a LIFETIME WARRANTY. So I figured what the heck I would send it in and see if they would cover it ( I was not expecting it to be covered considering to take it apart you must cut the rubber backing and it was really BEAT UP )
Well today I just got a package in the mail. They sent me a brand new one. I could not believe that they covered the abuse that we put it through. I will definitely buy from Alltrade again.
The only thing that keeps this from getting 5 Stars is that some times when you are cutting something hard and you push the release button the blade will retract. So you just have to get used to holding it with out hitting it.

I use this for cutting up boxes while working at the local library. I like the large handle. Some of the 'ordinary' cutters I have used tend to stick when sliding the blade in and out. As a result, I often leave the blade exposed when not using the knife. This one works easily, so I am more likely to retract the blade before setting it down.

Changing blades is quick and easy. I haven't found an easy way to simply switch ends on a blade, so I may end up not using one end of a blade.



2 out of 5 stars Not sure if it's me or the knife   April 2, 2007

I just can't get the hang of this thing. At first, when I tried to change the blade it just spit them out on the ground. Now it won't change blades at all. It's also dirty from use, and I think that's jammed up the mechanism. So, for around the house use, it may be great. But on a worksite, I'm not so sure. Maybe I'll clean it well and WD-40 the heck out of it and see.

Also, because it's so fat at the cutting end, it's difficult to use a level as a cutting guide; you need to use a thin ruler or similar.

I prefer my little foldable utility knife; blade changes also don't require a screwdriver and are fast. And it's much smaller. If it only had blade storage, it would be perfect.



4 out of 5 stars Nice utility knife, but...   February 23, 2007

This utility knife has a nice concept. I purchased several (4) for use in a commercial printing environment. Everyone liked the "screwdriver free" blade changing and storage. It feels wide and heavy, compared to most other utility knives. We found from extended use it does perform well. BUT.. do not drop this knife. Drops from a standard height table (3ft) will jam the mechanism and render it useless.


We'll be adding even more exciting features to assist you in the coming year.
