Meh, I'll hold out for the festool version made of solid plastic, with a proprietary ceramic blade, and which I can easily hook up to dust collection.

Ive got one like it without the screwdriver and bottle opener, its just a flip knife with the replacement blade holder. I love it.

I have no brand loyalties, majority of my power tools are dewalt, but I’ll say the milwaukee gravity style utility knives are my favorite. Easy one hand opening, and they haven’t gone completely loosey goosey in several years now.

The bit holder is good for me. Any other brands have a bit holder?

Love these. One of the only Milwaukee tools head and shoulders above the rest. Klein has a similar one but it falls short.
Downside for this guy is there are two versions of the bit holder. Integral spring detent is most excellent. Captured ball and spring under the external sleeve is garbage- the sleeves come off so easy; avoid at all cost. |

I hate the button type utility knifes.
I bought a few thinking they would be great, in reality what happens is you try flip it open, forget to let go of the button, and it just flops back closed. Kobalt still makes the best compact utility knife. |

I may give one a shot, but the beauty of these folding, pocket utility knives is that they should be small enough to put anywhere and even carried with your regular EDC knife or multitool where you can abuse the cheap replaceable razor blades.
Duratech and Workpro are good designs:   I much prefer the button lock to liner locks for this type of utility knife. Simpler to execute safely and they also lock the knife when folded. The deep pocket clip is a great feature to slip the thin utility folder in the back pocket. ROCK6 |

Ive used the husky ones. Lifetime warranty.
Swap at home depot. Older models had a shitty blade lock and blade would slip out. Later types have been rock solid. When you drywall, you swap blades a lot. I use them all the time. |

#3 in two years. They tend to disappear sometimes.
 Attached FileI don't like folders. I also like having the ability to adjust blade depth depending on what I'm cutting. It's one of my most used tools. I like Milwaukee, just not that style utility knife. |
