5.0 out of 5 stars Best knife ever used, February 3, 2011

I have owned this knife for 10 years, This retracting unit is the best design due to either retacting for carrying or changeing blades by loosening the screw and pulling out forward (no need to pivot handle). Recently I thought I lost it and bought 2 knifes by roberts first a cheap one with a screw to remove blades then a openable pivot one both are anoying to replace blade vs this one. A carpet layer replaces a blade or filps it about every 3rd cut so having a blade that changes so easy is very handy. I keep this retracted in tool box or walking around and is much safer.

This review is from: Stanley 10-525 6-1/2-Inch Retractable Carpet Knife (Tools & Home Improvement)

This is a cheaply made tool with all kinds of irregularities--looks like a "second" at best. Very awkward to change the blades or rotate them. Most of these are dangerous and this no exception. You have to loosen the whole assembly, which makes it very dicey. Not for kids, klutzes or the distracted. Does small jobs okay but wouldn't want to use it all day.
