      Answer This Question

      You can use it. Left-handed but you retract the blade on the left side of the unit.

            To remove blades side them out the back of the knife, see my review of the knife with a pic of changing the blade under MikeTheReviewer on the HD product page.

            Pull out the belt clip and slide blade holder with blade out that end. Replace the blade and put back together from that end then replace the belt clip

                If you can't find replacement blades in the tool department, go to paint and look with the scrapers. They should have them.

                  Hi Tom, this particular item, the 25 mm Metal Body Snap-Off Knife is an online exclusive item and comes directly from the Homedepot.com inventory where it can be shipped to you directly or if it is eligible, shipped to a Home Depot store.

                  I had no problem finding them in 3 different HD stores. Guess they are popular in your area? They can be ordered on line.

                  By|Oct 9, 2020

                  Tom, of course at the time when you were looking for replacement blades in 2015 they may not have been a regular stock item. However, now they are on an in-store display right next to the DeWALT knife itself. Supply doesn't appear to be an issue today, and I've found the knife is a good value.

                    Great product for rope access insulation but I wish they came with extra screws to hold the body together.

                    Nice metal construction, but the included blade is junk
                    Nice metal construction, but the blade rusted after 2 days of used I cut a few pieces of cardboard and insolation. Not buying Dewalt blades.

                      broken before it got home.
                      The “knob” that actuates the blade broke off and rendered the snap off blade knife useless. Upon looking as to why it broke, noticed 10mm x 1.5 mm plastic attachment had a clean break off “knob”. There is more thought to attaching the DeWALT name to the actuator “knob” than the 2nd most important feature for functionality and most important feature for safety. I expect more from the name DeWALT.

                        I like these knives over the dollar store or other cheap plastic snap off blade knives. They have a nice metal holder for the blade and it keeps the blade straight & doesn't wobble & feels safe in hand. I will no longer buy the cheap ones knowing this is available. I used the knife for cutting thick insulation extending the blades all the way and it worked well. The positive clicks as you extend the blade also gives confidence while cutting in that the blade won't slip in or out on you, as many times the cheap knives have done for me in the past. A few things...The pocket clip kept falling off so I took it off and just carried it my pouch. I've read that many reviewers have said that the plastic part that holds the blade inside can break when dropped. I have not had that issue, but DeWalt should just replace it with a different type of plastic that doesn't break so easy. I like the feel of the thickness and metal grip while using it over the thin plastic type.
