Stanley 10-525 6-1/2" Retractable Carpet Knife

Got it to replace a Stanley that I had worn out. Just as good as the original which I had for at least 20 years.

Excellent

I have used many carpet knives. This is by far the easiest to use.

I could kick myself for ordering this. After I put the blade in the mechanism for moving the blade in and out required Herculean strength to move. I assumed it was user error, so watched a couple of videos online to confirm I had loaded the blade correctly. Turns out the problem was not the user. The problem was either a defective product or extremely poor design of the blade movement. Regardless, world never order this again and can not recommend it unless you want to get out a pair of pliers every time you need to move the blade in or out.

Excelente producto matrerial fuerte y duradero

It's inexpensive and does the job well enough when assembled properly but it's difficult to change blades. Since I need to change blades often (I use it to cut acoustic ceiling tiles and a blade only lasts for 3-4 cuts) I waste a lot of time trying to hold everything together so I can tighten it up without things getting out of alignment. You have to almost completely disassemble and then reassemble it to change a blade. If you don't get it right the blade will slip and things could get dangerous.

Worked great for cutting my flor tiles. I only did a little bit so can't really review the actual blade or how long it will last.The only reason i am giving this 4 stars is because it was not that intuitive to assemble the blade.
