2001年8月5日 · The Stanley 199 is the knife of choice for most of the guys I work with. I normally will have at least 2 or 3 Stanley's in my hand box as well as a fresh pack of blades, some of which ive had for 6 or 7 years. But I also keep an 18mm OLFA knife on me as well for more flexible work .

2015年8月17日 · The 199 was the first. Stanley's website says 1936. I think the 99 came out in the '50s. I prefer the 10-799 fixed model, especially when doing drywall work. I can't stand it when the blade shifts, or the stupid lock mechanism craps out and the blade gets left in …

2009年2月22日 · The Stanley 199 is a great tool to have in a toolbox. I wouldn't, however, want to EDC one- unless I was in a trade where it was necessary too. I have carried a folding Sheffield utility knife on some occasions, when such a tool was percieved necessary. There is some chores, where using a disposable blade is preferable to a regular knife.

2024年1月26日 · Stanley 199 or one of its variants. Click to expand... They're nice, and plenty durable, but when you're working at height, on a top rope (like on a 12-pitch roof), a retractable blade is a must IMHO.

2022年1月31日 · So I have this old Victorinox Rambler that I've been carrying over the past couple of days. Normally I am not a fan of the 58mm SAK but I must admit that it really does the "98%" of all daily cutting tasks. This is what I always see being mentioned on BF but also on other forums. In particular...

2019年4月16日 · If you look up Stanley England it should give a time line on their company acquisitions . I think they took over Harwood, who made American style braces. This is from my memory, which is like an old rusty can, kinda leaky. Yes ! Braces are very handy, they are surprisingly fast and easy for...

2006年5月4日 · I'll be moving to this area in the near future, so I've been checking up on the laws. South Carolina as a state seems to have very little in the way of knife laws (outside of committing crimes with them or carrying them on school property), but …

2020年2月14日 · I just read the posts on the Stanley no.66. If you have one and need blades, Lie-Nielsen makes a no.66 bronze beading tool. They sell the blades seperate and they fit the old Stanley no. 66.

1999年6月29日 · Stanley 199 meets the definition of a fixed blade knife - the blade doesn't fold or retract. I use the ...

2020年3月8日 · I never open cans or do woodworking when I am out on the streets in the place where I live. With some care and thought, even large boxes can be cut with a Classic as I have found. And if not, then there is always that very old but perfectly fine 'Made in England' Stanley 199 my dad gave me when I moved into my new home back in March.
