Milwaukee Electric Tool 48-22-1502 Fastback Knife/Storage

Tired of looking for scissors or using your kitchen knives to open your Amazon Packages? I've had this knife for about 6 years now and it's my favorite knife to use so far. If you're looking for a high-quality, sturdy knife this is for you. Milwaukee is on the high tier list for construction tools and this knife is part of that pool. Comes with storage for 3 extra blades (not included). I think my favorite part of the blade is that the full metal body - you just engage the metal button slightly flick your wrist and the blade is ready to go and it works everytime. There's no plastic slider that'll wear your thumbs, or any parts you think will wear out. It's solid. The blades are so easy to replace and make it so easy to just remove and use the other side of the blade for. And retracting the blade is as easy as opening the blade, no need to use two hands and try to hit a button to disengage the lock on the blade, which I hated with other EDC knives, although they look better, it's not as functional. ALSO, if you're just cutting up cord or wire / tape, there's a safe exposed portion of the body where you can just run the metal case and cut without having to open the knife which is super handy as well. I carry this on the construction jobsite as well as their magnetic tape measurer all day and it's so handy. The pocket / belt clip never snags and isn't too tight and hasn't worn out or bent - I've had to tighten it with a phillips head every so often but it's also nice that you can bend the metal to increase or decrease the tension if your belt is too thick or whatever you're securing it to. Highly recommended for opening up boxes, cutting wraps, cords, wires, working on construction site, working at the back of retail stores, etc. Just buy this knife.

This Milwaukee tool is solid, and what I like most is that I can clip it to my side, so it is always there when I need it. It's a great tool to have for someone who likes to work around the house.

I am the type of person who is always in a rush to get something done. In doing so I usually have my hands full while trying to do something. Who has time to go to their workbench or set up sawhorses or remove something to work on it? Because of this I usually find myself with only one free hand to cut something lose or strip a wire or cut some type of binding. This knife is perfect for that. The side clip is large and very easy to pull off your belt or side of your pocket and very easy to put back on. The best part is the opening mechanism. With cheap old utility knives, after a while, they are hard to open with one hand. The slides doesn't slide very well. With flip up utility knives they can be a pain to open as well. This is probably a good thing so they don't flop open when you don't want them to or are unaware. This knife has a button on the side that when pressed allowed the knife to open without resistance. When the button is not pressed the knife is locked in place. This button is not too hard to press but not so loose that I would every worry about it. I can easily find the knife on the side of my pocket, pull it off, push the release with my thumb and with a flick of the wrist it is open. I can proceed to make my cut, press the button again and flick it closed. Amazing. Also, the rope cutting slot works like a charm. This knife utilizes the main blade, when folded, as its slot cutter. This way, if it ever dulls you just have to replace your main blade and you are like new. Some other knives have a fixed slot blade that will dull and can be replaced with some odd blade or cannot be replaced at all. This knife is much easier to use and replace. Would recommend this blade to anyone.

I've used alot of different knifes for different jobs. I like this design better than most. It's at my #2 top knifes. #1 is the same brand but the fast flip open n close version. Your finger placement is key when using alot of force when your cutting a certain material. This knife has great finger placement for the tougher cuts. The easy open and close isn't to shabby either. It has a fold out extra blade slot in the handle. I like that feature but It isn't a must to have. The blades lock in place and so far i havent had any issues with blade slippage or falling out. Over all yet again a good.knife that will last a long while. Well worth the money. I have NOT been paid for this review nor any other review so far. (I wish I would though). This is, as always, just and only my opinion thought my own eyes and felt with my own hands. I take reviews serious, as I rely on them to make my decisions before any and all my purchases. So if you have found my review helpful please vote and let the other Amazonian Browsers get a better judgment of what to expect and how the product works. Thank you for your time and happy buying.

Great flip action!!
