Always used to use Stanley due to sharp blades, trouble was even the sliding retractable ones, would sometimes fail and let the tip of the blade out, resulting in damage to pocket, if you were unlucky a nasty cut as well!. This solves the problem nicely and feels well made and secure. Easy in the hand, not as fat feeling as the old ones. The thing that loses a star for me, the blade!!. It’s a Stanley blade that isn’t frighteningly sharp! it’s virtually blunt after only 15-20 foot of corrugated box cutting. The knife, brill, the blades it came with…pants.
I recently purchased the STANLEY 0-10-825 FATMAX Retractable Folding Knife, and it’s a game-changer! The folding lockback design is incredibly convenient, slipping easily into my pocket when not in use. The knife’s ergonomic and rugged design makes it a perfect companion for heavy-duty tasks, ensuring a comfortable grip even during extended use. Safety is a top priority, and the retractable blade adds an extra layer of protection when the knife is not in action. What really impressed me is the instant blade change feature — no need for any tools! It saves time and hassle. Plus, the internal blade storage keeps spare blades handy, making it ultra-convenient. This knife has become my go-to tool for various tasks, and I can’t recommend it enough!
But come on Stanley sort out the packaging or provide some detail as how to get it off the knife as the info is very poor.
The feeding and locking mechanism securing the blades works well and stands up to heavy use. However, the weakest link is the securing bolt which runs through the blade carrier and body into which it folds. The bolt will gradually unwind and then dislodge completely rendering the tool useless.
While this may be a perfectly acceptable tool for light or occasional craft use, the folding knife appears unable to withstand heavy daily use. For that, a more rigid one-piece knife is probably more preferable.
The item itself seems very robust, time will tell.. changing a blade is easy if you think about it. Push the blade control button out to the maximum and insert a blade while depressing the small red button. After releasing the button you need to wiggle the blade to make sure that it is correctly fitted. Do the reverse to change the blade.
Only 4 stars because there is nearly always room for improvement! I am not yet convinced by the plastic (?) parts. Hopefully they are more durable than they appear. It opens and closes easily contrary to some reviews.
Best utility knife I ever bought, if only it was easier to get out of the STANLEY packaging!
Which was so difficult it was almost scissor-proof and bomb-proof.
–
Even the videos on Youtube didn’t help me get into the packaging, which seems basic but STANLEY has a method of locking the plastic packaging inside the knife, and even pulling it from every angle does not get the knife free.
–
If bought as a Christmas present it would be good fun to watch the person receiving it trying to get the knife free lol…
–
Now I have it free and have used it, this knife has firmly become my favourite utility knife to use.
I have used it to cut leather, foam, and carpets with no problem!
Good but if kit. Stan has come a long way.
ITS A BEAUTIFUL PRODUCT, IT FOLDS BEAUTIFULLY, IT SITS IN YOUR HAND BEAUTIFULY, IT CUTS REANSONABLY WELL, right up until you need to put a blinking BLADE in the thing. the lovely RED BUTTON on the end of it? is USELESS, FRUSTRATING IN THE EXTREME, AND some blades DONT EVEN GO in to the blinking thing . . (curved scimitar blades) the button has you there for TWENTY MINUTES pessing around like an idiot, its only a BUTTON for goodnessakes, YET YOU TRY PRESSIN THE DAMN THING, ITS A JOY TO USE FOR ABOUT ten minutes, WHY WHY HAS SUCH A BRILLIANT PROFESSIONAL COMPANY? released SUCH A POORLY ENGINEERED PRODUCT. STANLEY USED TO HAVE A REP FOR BRILLIANT ENGINEERING WITH ME . . not WITH this PRODUCT, I JUSS CUT THREE FINGERS TO THE BLINKIN BONE TRYIN TO PUSH THE STOOPID BLADE IN . . THANKS A BUNCH
Nice secure solid knife
Easy to use and folds to a very compact size
I really did read reviews and thought how hard can it be to remove from the packaging but low and behold it was a faff…hence the 4 stars…apart from the packaging its a good produc
Stunning knife with spare blades contained inside the knife. Blades easily adjusted to required length for scoring card and hardboard. Also has a facility to allow for striping of wire cable.
This product wad ok. I’m not sure if I have attached the blades in properly as they don’t fully retract. The instructions aren’t overly clear but still a good knife that comes with spare blades.
Very hand stanley knife fits easily into your pocket and has a storage part for spare blades
Good value for money easy to use and very safe
Always bought Stanley knives, you know what your getting. Decent quality.
The best knife possible.
I would buy it just in case I lose it,otherwise I will never change it on another one.
Item is chipped and scratched all over (example in photo. The knife itself is great though can’t fault the use of it just disappointed that it came in secondhand condition when I paid for a brand new knife.
Top knife, compact, good to fold when your busy and want to carry around.
Possibly in my top 10 Amazon purchases still using it daily in my job, extra blade storage in the handle is blessed, the only issue with this knife is keeping it out of my workmates pockets, great find.
product seems ok once you have it assembled difficult to operate but once used to it and remembered how it should be o. k Ordinary stanley knife a lot more simple and easier to use.
Great little knife. I love the extra blades it holds as easy to get a sharpe one where ever you are.
Would like an easier closing button but once you got the hang of it it’s pretty easy.
