Ratings & Reviews for CRAFTSMAN Green HI-VIS Quick Change 3/4-in 3 -Blade Retractable Utility Knife with On Tool Blade Storage

How to assemble

After some choice words you will look instructions up. I pressed the release and finally got the blade storage out. Then came choice words. Toward the blade end it locks. You'll be afraid of breaking it. It pulls apart like scissors, not straight apart but, as if you are pushing towards each other. It is easy not forced. Craftsman needs to add instructions, most of us know the simple version and this variation is a bit more complicated. Love the handle much easier to work.

How do you change a blade?

There is supposedly a quick blade change feature on this knife. I have no idea how to use it and I’ve taken the knife apart to change the blade as normal. Put everything back to together, now the blade won’t retract.

I like the ergonomics of it but the finish is but chipping and rubbing off after two lite uses, and the blade retracting isn’t as smooth as other knives.

Ergonomic and well built

The hi-vis color of this knife makes it easy to locate

Easy to use

It's a solid knife and easy to load, and the bright green means you won't lose it

Great utility knife

I really liked the shape of the knife and feel in my hand while using it. I like the color it makes it easier to find in my tools box.

Easy and comfortable blade

The form of the blade fits perfectly in hand. Easy to use.

Great Knife

I've had this knife for a couple of weeks still breaking it in. The only thing i can say is to make sure you fully retract the razor before you put it in your pocket.

Great construction and color

Easy to use quick change blade system. Love the color, makes it easy to spot

Re-assesment

Full disclosure, I bought this, hated it and pitched it out, then decided I wasn't going to let it beat me. After fishing it out of the trash, I was able to put it back together and make it useable. The problem came when I was getting it out of the package. The whole thing fell apart and it took me several tries to put it back together. I had to look up the information on a Youtube video to figure it out. I dropped a star as there are no instructions on how it works. The feature is nice in that ...

Get it

Hi-viz color and shape makes this a great tool for your toolbag.

Not the best

Product isn't the easiest to get back together after changing the blade.

Fair utility knife for the price.

Knife seems heavy duty and does have a decent blade swap mechanic once you do it once or twice.

Not worth it

Not easy to change blades at all. Just falls apart

15 minutes to get the blade in

The pro's....It's Made in America and it's green(which seems to be the biggest selling point). The Con's .. It's a pain in the butt to put together! I'm a machinist and mechanic, it took me 15 minutes to get the initial blade in. Is this the best American designers can come up with???
