What Customers Are Saying
The product is a well-designed and durable chalk line reel with a sturdy aluminum housing, smooth geared reel mechanism, secure locking mechanism, convenient one-way fill port, and retractable hook. Reviewers praised the overall quality and functionality, noting the line produces clean, crisp lines and is durable. A few minor drawbacks were mentioned, such as the lock being stiff to operate with one hand and the lack of a belt clip, but the product appears to meet the needs of most users.

Would RecommendGreat chalk line, fits the bill well! Doesn’t come with chalk though
Stick with 3>1
I thought I'd like the 6 to 1 gear ratio. It proved a little too much ratio. Very difficult to wind in.

I like this one.
Would RecommendIt Winds up nice, and tucks away the catch. Thin string to snap a precise line.
Easy to Use
Would RecommendI found this box very easy to fill and use. Did a great job, with little or no waste.

Quick, storage, secure door
Would RecommendDoesn't come with chalk...pick up your desired chalk type before you leave the store. Quick rewind, built in storage for the hook and crank, chalk door snaps in place...no more mess in my tool bag (I hope). Plastic seems hard and may not survive high drops. Tested a 6 foot drop onto concrete...no issues (small scuff marks) 101' line, rewinds in 35 seconds (quick walking pace)
Great tool!
Would RecommendThis chalk reel was easy and convenient to use. The fill hole was extra wide which was great so that no spills occur. Which means no wasted product. It holds more than 3oz of powder. The reel itself was smooth and quick to retract. The claw is aluminum and is bigger than most for easier use. It attached easily to wood and cement for me without needing an additional person to hold it down. Was able to make a straight line quick on the cement I had just laid down to cut it. Overall great and impro...
Leaks chalk
Would Not RecommendThis leaks chalk everywhere. So messy, I won't put it in my toolbelt. Very plastic and junky. Unusable.
Great product
Would RecommendVery durable design and comfortable for long duration use. The end hook design provides superior grip and the lock feature is easy to use and works well. I should have read the directions at first, because pulling the reel while locked proved to be quite difficult.
Love the push button feature
Would RecommendThe Cresent Lufkin chaulk line is a great addition to my tool line up. It's well built and simple design should provide years of use out of it. Currently hanging alot of paneling up and I been using this tool with out the chaulk and it's been working great, I extend the line out where I want and can nail off of it or just make little pencil marking across the line. And not have to deal with cleaning up all the caulk when finished!!
Nice Chalk Line
Would RecommendNice chalk line that is easy to fill and use. The price for this chalk line was very reasonable. Have used it several times and it made a crisp line for me to follow with a circular saw!
Very nice Lufkin Chalk line
Would RecommendThis is a very nice 100 foot chalk line. The cord pulls out, with a good amount of chalk on the line to create a permanent line. Upon retrieval the crank is smooth and works well, to wind the cord back up. It is nice that it is 100 foot long.
Good quality chalk line tool
Would RecommendVery nicely done product. The case is good and solid, I dropped it getting it out of the hermetically sealed plastic container, man that stuff is hard to open! Amyway no damage to the tool from a workbenches height drop. The line is very nice and the tool can be used to mark a good line or as a plumb bob line to mark a wall. Handle locks into place to keep line from playing out that you dont want to. Overall a good tool that is almost a must for any carpenter or woodworkers tool box
