Item No: MW-1901

 
 

Product Information

Look, Ma! One hand.

This doozy of a knife is just like its side sliding brother except that it only lets you change blades up to 3x faster. (That is still pretty fast, if you ask us). Also like the side slider, you won’t need any additional tools to change the blade, eliminating down time in the field. One-handed blade opening feature lets you flip open, while an integrated gut hook lets you make cuts without even opening the blade. It also includes a convenient little wire stripper, good for stripping up to a 10-gauge wire – all in a thin (1/2"), sleek design for easy storage in your pocket. With a 5" overall length and 1-1/4" height, you can take it with you anywhere (except on a plane). Uses standard double edged utility blades, 5 are included. Imported.

      Comments about Milwaukee Fastback Flip Utility Knife:

      This is an extremely well made and rugged utility knife. The ease of opening and the positive locking in both open and closed positions makes for safe usage. The long spring wire clip places the tool well into a pocket to prevent loss. One can find less costly utility knives, but there isn't a better one than this on the market.

          So far the best utility knife I've owned.Opens easy. Easy to hold on to. simple blade change. I even like the pocket clip because it is flexable enough to slide it into your pocket, without ripping your pocket. I use it mostly as a marking knife and trimming small pieces to fit.

            Full-sized grip gives you power and control. Toolless blade change is fast and secure. Because of its ergonomic shape I barely notice its presence clipped in my pants pocket. Wish it had on-board blade storage
