Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I have had this knife for about three years now and use it constantly... A boss I had a couple years ago saw me changing a blade one day and wanted t osee it... I showed it to him and he liked it so much, he went and bought 3 or 4 for the shop. ALL of them worked PRECISELY the same as mine. It's so perfectly simple to change blades, it's downright silly, BUT... there is a catch...
This tool has one GLARING flaw... It's simply not immediately obvious how to PROPERLY operate it to change blades. However, I have it down pat, so follow along and learn...
To remove a blade, it takes three steps...
1) Push the slider button down and forward ALL the way to the front until it stops (three position stops)...
2) Now, PRESS the slider button down and press forward... it will click and stay down.
3) FIRMLY press on the yellow release button with your thumb and grasp the blade and withdraw it...
To insert a new blade...
1) PRESS AND HOLD the yellow button and grasping blade with thumb and forefinger of opposite hand, insert blade into tool and push all the way back until it stop moving (there should be little or no resistance.
2) RETRACT the blade normally.
Notes:
1) If you try to insert a blade WITHOUT PRESSING AND HOLDING THE YELLOW BUTTON, the blade will pop the lock into place and the blade will not fit into the tool.
2) If when the blade is inserted and the slider is all the way back, if the blade sticks out any at all, then the blade is NOT installed correctly. Follow the steps to remove the blade and try inserting it again, and BE SUER to push it all the way back before releasing the yellow button. If you do this properly, you will have NO problems.
Having used a number of these knives, I assure EVERYONE, if you do these steps PRECISELY as described, this knife works perfectly every time!!! It really is JUST THAT SIMPLE!
