My new marking knifeDec 05, 2010
By Dennis E. Matthews
I purchased this knife to use as a woodworking marking knife. It works great for just that.
The ONLY think that i am not so happy with is the protective cap for the blade. It's a bit loose and i can not trust it to stay on if i were to put it in an apron pocket. Other than that it has a nice feel when using it and it works as i had hoped.

Nice idea, execution needs some workDec 10, 2011
By David Brennan
I've used Xacto knives (and their off brand cousins) for years now, mostly #1 and #2 knife handles. Solid, dependable, but also kinda hard on your hands after a few hours of use. So when I saw a rubber sleeved version, even for a few dollars more, I figured it was worth a try. And its not too bad, but it suffers from a few design flaws that had me reaching for the old faithfuls after a while.

1. The cap - yeah it isn't very secure on the knife. If you're used to the clear plastic caps of old that slide down over the knurled grip about an inch, this will seem very poorly secured by comparison. It looks like it will stay, but a bit of sideways force applied to the top of the cap and off it comes. The cap does fit onto the back end (I guess so you don't lose it), but it's even less secure there and will fall off with the slightest touch. No good.

2. Collet design - the biggest downfall of the design for me is the new version of the usual collet-and-sleeve blade clamp. In theory its the same as the old handles, but the increased sleeve length and the radial space between the collet and sleeve means that if you apply much force to the blade to cut something, the whole clamp assembly moves sideways. With the old handles, once the blade is clamped in place, the clamping end and main shaft are like one solid piece of metal. With the new design, the gap between collet and sleeve means too much force ends up being applied to the thread of the collet and it can't resist it. The sleeve pushes the collet until the threaded end of the collect moves in the main shaft. Its hard to describe well, but once you've had it happen to you a few times, you'll understand.

Increasing the tension on the clamp (ie. tighten the clamp as much as possible) during blade installation helps to overcome this somewhat, but the rubber sleeve is not well bonded to the metal sleeve inside it and will soon be spinning around it, rather than moving as one unit. Squeeze that rubber hard (or maybe re-glue it to it's metal sleeve), it's the only way you get the clamp tight enough.

The rubber sleeve on main shaft is nice, and comfortable and stops the handle from rolling away on the table.

This knife is fine for light duty cutting where the usual Xacto precision is needed, but not too much force is applied (stencil cutting, paper and construction paper work). The rubber gives pretty good grip and added comfort. But since the rubber comes loose from the metal support fairly quickly after some use, it sometimes wants to rotate slightly in my hand, which I don't care for.

Overall, not made to the usual bullet-proof standards I expect from Xacto, so I was a bit disappointed. I'll probably either hack the handle so its more durable/rigid under my kind of use or add some kind of rubber grip to my trusty #1 (maybe Plasti-Dip?)

Comfortable Xacto KnifeOct 20, 2011
By Wren
I've used many Xacto knives over the years, and this one is by far my favorite. I've had mine for nearly ten years now and it's still working wonderfully. I originally bought it in college to make models, but have found it also works well for various crafts. I've cut materials such as chipboard, cardboard, museum board, foam core, poster board, construction paper, cardstock, thin sheets of plastic, etc. The rubber coating makes it so much more comfortable over others when cutting for long periods of time. The blade is easy to change by simply twisting the top rubber part of the knife, and I haven't had any trouble with the blades slipping.

I do agree with other reviewers that the safety cap doesn't stay on very well. I don't even know where mine is at this point. However, I keep mine in an art box, so this really isn't too much of an issue for me.

If you make models or craft a lot, I would highly recommend this knife.

cap doesn't stay onJan 05, 2011
By J. Terry "jterry"
I use xacto knives almost every day. I thought I'd buy this more expensive model to treat myself and I was disappointed. the blade is more cumbersome to change and the safety cap doesn't stay on. Other than hold the blade these are the only two things the knife does. BTW it holds the blade just fine. I'm giving this one away and sticking with the inexpensive one.

Cap falls of, rubber twistsNov 08, 2011
By Vlado B.
I bought 5 of these knifes for our workshop, I use X acto knifes all my life, but looking at the many products I have from them, more and more are turning out to be only competitors to the cheap Chinese products. I think they lost their professionalism somewhere along the way, this knife definitely proves that. Looks great, but that's it. The plastic cap is cheap, too hard and cracks all the time, not to mention that it doesn't hold in place on the knife. And the worst part about this knife is that once you use it a few times the silicone part of it gets loose and you have to use pliers to hold the new blade while turning the rear section when replacing the blade because the front silicone part just spins around.
