Testing every utility knife, DeWalt, Stanley, Klein Tools, Irwin, Milwaukee, ToughBuilt, Fiskars Pro

Utility blades have been one of the most useful tools on the job, and in this video I aim to figure out which is the best as far as portability, features, and feel, in this video I explore subjective attributes, in a future video well put them to the test and explore the objective attributes.

This is how you make a comparison video. Excellent presentation, informative and entertaining.

Stanley 10-499 Been using the same one I purchased in 1996. I use it while doing wood floor work since 1996. Used and abused. I did have to replace the holder for the extra blades from a new model. Slim and effective, extra blades in hand literally. Personally I loath most ergonomic oversized, over engineered hand tools. There is genius in simplicity. I tried one of the oversized type and it hasn't been used in 20 years.

It’s always going to be the Milwaukee Fastback 6 in 1 for me! Wouldn’t have it any other way. 5:50

Great video construction, with lots of good details and a succinct summary at the end! Keep up the good work!

Try the smaller Milwaukee too. I love it. I think also rebranded as Hart.

I've had the same Stanley 10-499 for over 10 years cannot recommend it enough for actually using on the job. Have never carried it as a personal pocket knife due to it's size. Wish they made a version that was exactly the same without the string cutter, i have never needed this feature even when using string and sometimes it gets snagged on materials.

I got the Knipex CutX for over a year now, it is the best knifes i ever had.

My Fiskars Pro Compact doesn’t have the problems mentioned. Fits my large hand perfectly, comes out easily as the clip side is flat and is a quality product. I don’t need a large handle as it (and others of this size) are my EDC, used mostly for opening amazon boxes and cutting smaller items. It’s currently my favorite utility knife.

I have the folding version of the DeWalt and find it pretty good. I have switched to the Milwaukee, however, because it is a little slimmer but can still hold an extra blade in the handle. Another feature I prefer is a bright color so that I am less likely to overlook it when packing up my tools at a worksite. I've left behind a couple of flashlights now and then because of the color.

You lost me at the third "cast iron".

[danrussell]

I prefer single function tool, no add on items, (driver bits) and needs to fit my pocket.Great Video

Great review! Complementary accompanying vids to match the informative narrative packed into a no-nonsense delivery.

[ogedayrokzan]

Which one better to use? Folding one or big body?

[riqtec]

Thnx alot! I really wanted to believe the Thoughbuild is good but had my doubts about the practicality and thickness of the knife. You demonstrated it exactly as I would use it. The Milwaukee it will be! But unfortunately it's not available in The Netherlands at the moment. So I have to wait.

at least you should be aware of the Tirant Razor V3 which is a so-called *EDC* folding utility knife, with the emphasis on "edc". i carry it all the time wherever i go, even at home indoors sitting at my office desk/PC like right now. best blade to have on you, even beyond work.

EXCELLENT VIDEO. How it should be done!

[mrbigberd]

It sounds like you have a defective Fiskars. I've bought a few and none of them have button issues.

Project farm did an experiment and found Stanley blades to be really good for the money. Check his review out about utility blades

Canadian Tire Mastercraft. I liked it enough to have a bunch sent to me in Asia. Button lock, belt clip and lanyard hole. The knife and a few blades 9.99 cnd.

The husky can be bought in a pack of 3 at a very good price.
