still one slamming cut
and you can groove to this cut.  her voice  was right on time
and back in the day a voice comes out of nowhere
and has a monster cut
and it stays with you.  timeless cut.

I've been using carpet knives for 25 years. It's built like the standard knives. Not so sure I like the idea of swinging a bloody mary around more than necessary but we'll see... gimme a couple more weeks and ask again

I have a bunch of Henckel knives and have been happy with them over the 10 years or so that I have had them. I sharpen them twice a year and have been pretty my satisfied. But I have to say, this Wusthof is one sharp blade. Overall build quality is similar to my Henckel's too.
I can't get over how sharp this knife is though. I can only hope that it keeps its edge over time. Kind of pricey, but would buy again.

The video is a bit misleading. The tool doesn't make longer gable end angle cuts (like the one shown in the video) in one pass. Video would be more useful if it showed how you're supposed to hold the same angle and position for the second cut AFTER the first cut has been made while sliding a 12-foot plank through the tool to position it for the second pass.

Chops well, little issue around the frame already has bent and clips the blades. Otherwise its good. I got one that either was a demo or a return, so who knows how the bent frame really happened. Its heavy duty.

I installed this blade in my band saw to replace an old blade of the same style, and checked and recheck the proper tension and tracking. I'd swapped out 3 other blades over the weekend, and they all worked without issue. Fired up the saw, triple checked the tracking and tension again, and got to work.

After less than 60 seconds of cutting through 1/8" plastic (Sintra - which I routinely cut by hand with a box cutter), the blade snapped without warning. I never even finished the first cut - a simple straight cut.

I've heard of this brand, and the blade had good reviews, so I bought it assuming it would last. I might have gotten a bum blade, but still. Back in the old blade went, and it's been working hard for the past 2 weeks without issue.

it starts to smell and you have to clean it.
i was wearing this one day and had just made a knife and sharpened it. I was trying it out and was thinking 'wow this is the sharpest kinfe i've ever used'. and then i thought 'well let's see what it can do with a big cut'. and i put my arm weight behind it and !bam! the wood gave way and i basically threw a punch with the knife in my hand. near the end of path the knife went in my extension was my leg. Luckily only a few inches of it but my inner thigh, near my knee all of a sudden had a 4 inch mouth there. a clean dissection through skin, a half inch of fat and a little muscle. i had to literally hold the two sides together until i got , i don't know how many, stitches. The doctor didn't believe i had done it whittling. after that, when i went to carve, my hands shook. i trigger shy and it still happens sometimes. It was that cut though that made my mind start to actually be aware of any kind of bad cutting teqniques. i cut myself ALOT when i first started but after that one almost never. i get a 'spidey sense' when i'm about to make a bad cut and i change my cutting angle or grip or whatever..
anyway. the point of the story is. a glove is a good idea. feeling safe with a glove is not. being cautious as all hell is better.
don't think you won't get life altering injuries and brain damage  just because you're wearing a safety belt.

I really hate to give this little saw a three rating.  It cuts up a storm and handles with one hand very easily.  The only problem is that it will not make a square cut.  I am quite experienced with machinery and tools.  This little jewel just will not adjust to a square cut.  Every cut is toed in at the bottom of the cut a little over 1/16" .  Hard to make a good glue joint with it unless you can flip one piece.  I will keep the saw and fix it, but the point is I should not need to do so.  Happy cutting.

I bought the grandfather of this saw thirty years ago, and hope this one will last me just as long.  The old saw gave good weekend service year in and year out.  It still works, but the safety switch is finicky and I can hear a bearing failing.  So, I've bought the newer version with high hopes.  It has nice new features.  Another 30 years should about do me - think it will make it?

Punched a bunch of holes in .120 cold rolled steel and the hole saw portion is still cutting sharp.  The bits could be better.  I have snapped a few of them.

No such thing as Impact ready as far as I'm concerned. Better than Milwaukee's bits though. Stay away from those.

The cuts on the blade are clean .  1. But  the blade is out of round.  2.  Cuts are only good for a few inches, then are blade wants to suck the tile in to the blade.  3.  any cut longer than 4 inches and the tile snaps.  Cant use it for  tile cutting at all

disappointed, cut proof is insufficient. jab proof is more important. probability of jabbing myself with the oyster knife is substantially greater than accidently cutting myself. will use them for gardening. thank anyway

There are finer toothed blades that cut a bit smoother but this is not a finish cut blade. It seems to be holding an edge better than many. I'll but another to have it in stock rather than get a cheaper blade locally that hasn't proved to be durable if it ever breaks.

This is one wicked blade, very sharp! The drawback is the case, there is an opening at the top where the blade arcs above the case and if one is holding it wrong it can become a real issue very fast. Though the Dr at the er said it was a strait clean cut, one might even say "surgical precision"

I've had a ton of other CRKT knives, including various iterations of the M16 design, and this is the only one that comes to a close with the blade slamming up against the inner handle material - the edge of the blade comes into direct contact with the zytel. I can't keep the blade sharp because the edge keeps folding and being worn down by the closing action.

All of my other folding knives, including the CRKTs, use some other mechanism to stop the blade (I believe it's the thumb studs contacting the handle grooves in my other M16 designs), but this one relies on the blade's edge coming into contact with glass reinforced nylon. That, combined with mild play in the blade (normal) is wreaking havoc on my edge by folding and abrading it.
