Adam Savage's Favorite Tools: Multi-Blade Utility Knife!

Показать описание

Adam can't get enough of this new utility knife that he's been using in the cave! On its surface, it looks like any standard box cutter with snap-off 9mm blades, but this knife also holds extra blade cartridges in its handle for automatic reloading when you finish an entire blade. It holds up to five blades and is super satisfying to use--perfect for quick projects like foamcore or cardboard crafting!

That sinking feeling when you're sneaking around Adams shop at night... and you hear the tell-tale sound of a snap-knife re-racking behind you

Adam - "It's not too expensive."
Amazon dynamic pricing - "Just you wait."

I instantly recognized that knife as a NT Cutter knife. They make amazing stuff, and most of it is real cheap. My favourite of their knives is the L-500. The grip is great and I love that you lock it with a knob and not in specific increments like so many others.
I actually have a li'l story about one of these things. My dad had a L-500 when he was studying to become an architect some 30 odd years ago. For all those years, he kept and used it thoroughly (which has to be a testament to the build quality of these things) until one fateful night, a couple of years ago. He accidentally burned one side of it bad when he forgot it on top of our stove. It hadn't become unusable, but had a black, ugly side, and a faint, but constant smell of burned plastic. He was of course very sad about that.
Flash forward to when I started studying art and tech. In the art supply shop at my uni, I found the exact same knife, as in unchanged for who knows how many years. I had to have it, so I immediately bought two: one for me, 'cause of the knife I had borrowed from my dad all my life, and one for him to replace the old burned one. He got immensely happy to get a brand new version of his favourite knife.
Quick side note, the sound the locking knob makes is amazing and if you get one, you'll have a hard time not fiddling with it a whole bunch.

Tl;dr: L-500 is a real good knife from NT Cutter. Dad had that knife, but accidentally burned it, so I bought him a a new one and one for myself.

I get nervous now every time I see Adam handling something sharp.

As a graphic designer I've been using the Olfa snap blade knife for over a decade now working with vinyl graphics. NT cutter is just as good as Olfa and the edges are very sharp.

This is the best advice from a Tested video I’ve ever received: “Stay safe. Don’t touch yourself.” So wise

I was a carpenter's apprentice a few years back. My teacher bought me one of those nice Milwaukee multi-blades with the internal, flip out, compartment to hold ~5 extra blades. I love it, it saves my life, I find I'll end up needing it or wishing I had it on me at least once a day.

This video is 3 years old.... I just went ahead and bought this exact snap knife as well as the Heavy duty one. Adam... your videos are so informative yet fun to watch. Love the content, and Happy Holidays. :)

My father has been using these kinds of knives since I was a kid (cutting foam core and making signage), so by herritage I'm using them quite often. Didn't know this design existed, but managed to pick one up when browsing for unrelated things at the hardware store. Thank you for helping me expand my tool collection (I'm running out of space)!

The reload feature is handy, but I never felt that my OLFA knife ( they invented the snap knife) was lacking because it didn't do that. Probably this is because I mostly use it for small jobs. For bigger jobs I'm more likely to use the MakerKnife.

Love to see a video of Adam going to Akihabara in Tokyo and looking through all of the tools in their electronics markets. Lots of gold like this in there.

I have a larger version of that for years where the magazine actually holds about 10 blades.

At work we all use a knife by OLFA and it's one of our "always carry" tools. It's super convenient and hardly takes up any space.
