Does the lever lock into place at each notch? If not, does it at least hold its position, even with firm pressure on the blade?

Does not click to each notch, but they hold position great and the value of this clipper with blade speaks for them self!

Yes, the lever does lock into place but I will tell you something about these clippers, I bought 2 pair hoping that they would work and they never did. I sent both pair of andis clippers back in a 2 weeks spand.

It does not lock into each notch but it holds it's position. It only moves when you move it. It is great, I promise you will love it.

The lever does not lock, and mine used to slide all over the place. I used to tape it with duct tape. The good news is that with a simple tightening of the screws under the head, you can avoid having to duct tape at all. You can tighten this thing so it barely moves under a lot of pressure from your finger.

it locks by holding the rod in place and turning it in the direction of the arrows on the rod. There is a little sticker on there that shows the direction to turn so it locks in place. Once you start tightening it - it will turn til it tightens. Then it stays in place and that's that unless you decide to replace it higher lower etc. But it stays put from the pressure of tightening it. hope that answers your question!

Yes. When the knife blade or any of the tools are pulled from their storage place in the handle they lock. A small black 'ring' is at the base of the tool handle and when pulled back the blade releases so the knife can close safely.

I don't know on the Dremel blades. Only used B&D/Porter Cable/Dewalt, since they are basically the same multitool. It does take quite a bit of pressure (strength) to operate and hold the lever. Obviously, this necessary to hold the blade in place during operation. Once the blade is mounted it stays mounted. If hand strength is a problem you might want to consider another brand such as the Rockwell. More expensive, however.

The handle should snap and lock into place. Pressing the blue tab on the wand after inserting handle should lock. If not, it's defective.

yes. the knife has the regular piece of metal that set behind the blade once it is opened. on mine it locks half way if you open it slowly but if you open it halfway and then swing it it will lock all the way by it self.

It does indeed! Inserting and removing blades is as simple as rotating the lock 90 degrees to seat or unseat the blade. Very easy and fast. Have had this saw for a few years now, and it's a great tool.

It locks with the zigzag kind of locking cuts that most adjustable stems have. Set it once and forget it. It works great. My wife has put 700 miles on hers without adjusting or retightening anything.

Yes. The lock is the dark slider at the right end of the knife in the illustration. It is spring loaded, and unlocks only when the slider is pushed forward or backward. As long as no pressure is applied in either direction, the blade is immobilized, and cannot move.

Mine almost got stuck. The release lever is a bit flimsy but with care, it works. Rather stiff though...

No, the blade fold open and closed. They do not lock in position once opened.

Yes, the handle rotates and LOCKS in 3 positions: left/center/right (9/12/3 o'clock positions) which makes it convenient for BOTH left or right hand use. It also has double-action cutting blade action (both upper/lower blades move to cut).

it locks in place by pressure... there's like a little wedge space that when you place it correctly it will clip...

I've never had the blade retract on me when using it regardless of how hard I push. It's nice and solid. I love it.

I have had no issues with the blade falling out as long as it is seated correctly. Check by hand when tool is unplugged if blade is tight.

Yes the blade locks..... unfortunately the blade lock goes to far and now it won't close anymore.

Never happent to me... Is the red lever properly cliked down? Is the sandpaper right size? Sorry I can't think of anything else.
