There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
That somewhat fixed the issue. Now instead of the blade being jammed 90% of the time it jams 30% of the time. I think the noob designer(s) of this product needs a through dress down. Perhaps Stanley has lost sight of who they are and the principles they were founded on. It seems to me they have designers working for them that are more into having a product look "cool" then one that functions reliably. I suggest Stanley start making it mandatory that their designers actually be experienced in utilizing the tools they are tasked with designing. Because I feel it's evident the team that worked on this knife have been wrongfully collecting a check from Stanley under the false pretenses that they had any talent, common sense, or understanding of tool and die making.
I love these because the blades are sooo easy to change. I can't stand a dull blade and having to stop and unscrew them to change this is simply annoying. Here, a quick press and you can reverse the bald or swap in a new one.
I also like the grip and the built in blade holder.
I purchased three of these and did run into a quality control issue on one of them. Removing the blade was very difficult and I couldn't insert a new one. I took it apart to see if I could fix it - the frame that holds the blade was just a bit too tight to let it slide past and lock in. I tried prying it wider but finally just game up and toss the bad one.
I'm hoping this is just a glitch and not something that has happened in redesign. I've given these gifts in the past - gone through probably six of them with out a bad one (the older style).
Between the ergonomics of the bend, the grip of the rubber panels, the ease of blade changing/storage, the whole package, this one is it.
The ONLY circumstance where it isn't the best is one where the rubber panels might be damaged, say working around a bunch of "rough surfaces" or something.
