What Customers Are Saying

Customers overwhelmingly praise this insulation knife for its exceptional cutting performance through rockwool, fiberglass, and foam with minimal effort, delivering smooth, precise, square cuts that transform a tedious task into a manageable one. Reviewers consistently highlight the durable, razor-sharp blade that maintains its edge through extended use, paired with a comfortable, lightweight, non-slip handle that reduces hand fatigue and prevents blisters. Many appreciate the high value for the low price point, calling it a must-have for insulation work.

Owens Corning R30 Unfaced is the best!

Would Recommend

Absolutely the best insulation you can buy. Had to reinsulate my entire attic 40x40! The blown in insulation had deteriorated and settled and I had to use the R30 to install over it. It was a tough job, bought 55 rolls and took two weekends but the results were instant. You will definitely need to the insulation knife to cut the R30 as it is thick.

Grip-Rite for Cutting Stone Wool Batt Insulation

Would Recommend

This knife was purchased to cut Rockwool ComfortBatt insulation and did its job well. However, a cheaper alternative would do just as well (i.e., large cheap serrated knife). The best characteristic about this knife was the comfortable plastic handle and the fact the handle was red making it easier to locate when you lay it down.

Get more than 1 if you have a lot to cut

Would Recommend

Other than the impression that it became duller over time, this worked great on RockWool. I bought 2 while working with 144 batts and should have probably gone for 3. I am sure they can be sharpened but who wants to stop and sharpen a knife when you are on a roll?

Sharp

Would Recommend

It worked well. For my 1700 sq feet it worked as needed. I used it as well for cutting excess fire foam that would have been in the way of drywall.

Insulation knife

Would Recommend

Works excellent for cutting insulation down to size. Much better than hacking through it with a utility knife.
