This knife was OOS when I bought it and I coudln't wait to receive it because it looked so nice and durable. This is way better then the POS sheffield I was using prior to this. This thing is heavy duty and storage of extra blades is a BONUS! If you put your blades through abuse then this knife should be good for you as it is VERY VERY solid and durable.

I bought this as a gift for my dad and husband and they love it. The storage compartment is extremely handy. I have no doubt that the knife itself is high quality. The "rubberized" feel of the knife make it where it doesn't slip as much when you are doing those tough jobs. The quick change feature also seems pretty handy.

This knife is a little bulky since it has the storage compartment. It probably isn't something that the average guy would carry around in his pocket on a daily basis. If you are looking for that, check out the Bessey DBWH Quick-Change Folding Utility Knife - Wood Grain Handle. It is more compact (which means it doesn't have the extra blade storage compartment) and is a little nicer looking. It is a little heavier (1 1/8 oz heavier), but I actually prefer it for my needs. I keep it in my purse and surprisingly use it quite frequently.

If you are considering getting a new knife or a new utility knife, I would definitely consider this one. Good quality, love the storage compartment, and perfect just to have around.

Great knife to have in a print shop. A little dangerous on its snap when closing the blade (I have since scrapped off the edging around the blade entrance's finger zone in a warning pattern). Also blades of different sizes can wobble inside the blade-lock area and a piece of tape on the blade will stop thate nicely enough.

What I like most about this blade though is its grip. it doesn't have that hard feel of pressed plastic or metal. It also has enough curves for a variety of grip positions.

Way better than standard issue, break off blades. This changes faster.

Watch your fingers! NOT for beginners

I purchased this knife to use at my job. I loved the storage and design part of the knife but upon moderate use the knife it cracked on the handle splitting it in two. I purchased a metal utility knife and it has yet to fail. Do yourself a favor and purchase a metal utility knife it will be safer for the user.

This is a REALLY great utility knife. This is definetly the best design. Secure lockback locking blade, really nice thumb rest for comfort and extra pressure with precision, the blade storage is perfect, no more hunting for blades, and very easy replacement. A very comfortable handle with excellent grip, this is not a hard plastic feel, and there is a great high quality metal clip on the back for a belt, bag or whatever.

Around the house for cardboard I'll probably stick to a slimmer folding model, but this is the real deal for heavy duty work and convience with the blade storage.

This is a great knife. It is very sturdy and the blade storage in the handle is great. Although it is a bit heftier than other utility knives I had, so I'm a bit resistant to wear it around campus. Otherwise, great little tool.

I have several of this style of blade lying around the house and in my car and truck. It seems like I reach for one at least once a day. This Bessey is a very high quality knife, well constructed, and I like the ease of a flip-open compartment that conveniently allows you to quickly swap out blades.

I don't have the wood-grain version which I think is more esthetically pleasing. But, the functionality of having an on-board compartment for spare blades is pretty nice. The ultimate knife for me would be to make this version in a wood-grain model which could be a challenge for the manufacturer.

Nevertheless, a 5-star product that will last a long time.

I had a Husky branded version of this knife for 7-8 years. I searched for weeks for a Husky replacement but couldn't locate one with the blade storage and the "thumb saver" on the top. Was delighted to find a suitable replacement in this product.

This utility knife really works as stated in the description.

Also as many other reviewers has mentioned, the grip on this knife is really comfortable and makes a really

Good addition to any toolbox out there.

The convenient 5 blade storage compartment on the side is a great feature not found in many other utility knives

I'm very happy and satisfied with my purchase and I hope others will make a decision like myself based on the

Review of honest typical home users such as myself.

Would recommend this item, and even though the price seems a bit high, trust me it's worth not having to go

And look for a penny or a flat screwdriver to change the blades.

Seriously I'm very happy with it and will get more if needed.

Thank you for reading.

First off, let me say that Amazon Prime shipping has only got better and faster over the years. Thanks Amazon! This is a great utility knife. It replaced an old Stanley that I had used for for over 30 years and the difference is night and day. First of all is the ease of changing blades, no more screw driver and trying to line up the blade. I like the way it folds up and is easy to carry. It has a space to carry extra blades and it feels good in the hand. I just like it! Yes, I will recommend it.
