Stanley Trim Knife Fixed Blade 199E Silver 2 10 199

Straightforward no nonsense knife.

Really good product

Old school Stanley knife, used these for many years and find these to be the best on the market. Ideal for plasterboard cutting and joint/scrim taping which is what I mainly use it for. Comes with three spare blades inside.

This remains a robust and useful knife if handled with appropriate caution. I bought a new handle to replace my misplaced (temporarily, I hope) handle that has lasted 30+years and the quality of the handle itself has not altered. However, I was disappointed with the blade guard now supplied, which is plastic rather than the metal one of yesteryear. Difficult to slip on and only partially covers the exposed blade - not that the old version didn't have similar issues, but this is marginally worse in both of these respects. It's also in black, so even more easily lost if dropped. If you must use plastic, why not something colourful and visible? (To reiterate Amazon's policy ordering as a bladed item - you will need photo ID and a date of birth will also be required and logged. I suppose I should have been flattered by the driver's scepticism that I was over 18!) Overall highly recommended - and I regard this as an irreplaceable item in my toolbox. But to be treated with respect.

Well worth the money ideal for the tool box

The Stanley knife is very good. I was unsure if I could order a Stanley knife from Amazon but I complied with the instructions and it was done. The delivery person put the package through my letterbox and did not ring the doorbell. I was, therefore, not asked for any identification to prove that I am old enough to buy a knife of any kind. This is very worrying indeed.

Blade can't be retracted as I would have expected, instead there is a small black cover for the blade which is not easy to fit onto the blade.

Currently laying flooring and I so need a new one. Instructions are easy to follow. Blade change is simple. Over all the size is perfect
