Stanley knives are a type of utility knife used for cutting paper, cardboard, plastic, fabric, and a variety of other materials. They are versatile knives that can be used for a wide range of cutting tasks and provide precision in cutting allowing users to create detailed shapes or patterns. Stanley knives also provide convenience and safety as they are lightweight and easy to use. They derive their name from the brand Stanley which first made this type of knife popular.
The main feature of Stanley knives is the retractable blade that can be adjusted to different lengths and can be replaced with replacement blades too. The length of the blade is controlled by the blade shifter which allows multiple blade positions. The other feature of Stanley knives is that they can be fitted with different types of blades, including straight blades, hooked blades, and serrated blades. Some utility knives may also feature a storage compartment allowing storage of different blades for easy replacement and some may have an interlock mechanism to firmly secure the blade into the knife.
In addition to the knives themselves, Engweld stocks a range of different types of replacement blades. The blades are typically made from high-carbon steel, giving the knife durability and a sharp edge. The hand of the knife is made of plastic or rubber and ergonomically shaped to make them comfortable to hold and provide a better grip. Stanley knife blades are coated with materials to make them resistant to corrosion.
