Customer Reviews for Milwaukee FASTBACK 6-in-1 Folding Knife with 3 in. Blade and General Purpose Utility Blades (50-Pack)

Overall, I am very happy with this utility knife. If you are reading this review and you are shopping for a good quality, well built, sturdy folding utility knife, this one is my suggestion. Without hesitation I say it fits all my needs and expectations. WELL done Milwaukee!!!! So as in the description this knife has 6 functions rather than rehash what you can read in the description, let me just say this knife is well made and feels like it can handle a good workout on a consistent basis. I had a favorite utility knife before and I feel this is a great replacement to be my primary carry. 2 small added items that I am indifferent to; 1 - I’m not a big fan of pocket clips, I tend to lose things when I depend on the clips but this holds tightly and feels secure so I might get it a try and that’s a statement in itself. 2 - I have had my “issues” with the flipping action, I can’t get it to lock open by flipping. I think you perhaps need to press the button and release while flipping? I probably wouldn’t do flipping anyway. Lastly more of a note to Milwaukee the location of the bottle opener is mislabeled in the 2nd picture (that shows all the functions). You can see the actual bottle opener in picture #9 in the listing.

Milwaukee has all around good tools.

Like everything else that Milwaukee makes these blades are of the highest quality. Very sharp, durable, and long lasting. I used these while helping to open a bunch of moving boxes one blade and all day. I then used them to cut a bunch of cardboard boxes up so they could be thrown away in the trash receptacles we had I think I changed blades twice pretty good for a hundred or so boxes. So if you will notice just four stars for quality where they fell short (and I was not surprised after all they are general purpose) was when I went to use them on 1/2" drywall they just did not hold up after just a few cuts I was forced to change blades. I however do not see this as a fault after all like I said they are general purpose and not heavy duty drywall blades. Of all general purpose blades I have used these are by far the best not so thin they feel as if they will break and absolutely long lasting during general use.

These blades are not only very sharp as shipped but they seem to maintain their sharpness quite well. I used these on a drywall project and most of you know how effectively gypsum board dulls a knife blade. While I can't tell you the exact number of cuts I made before they grew too dull to work effectively, they just seemed to last longer than other blades. The blades come in a handy dispenser but mine had a tendency to separate on one end which I believe was just a mold defect. Overall, very pleased with the blades.

I use my utility knife all the time, we are always getting packages that these open quickly, or when you need to cut something with good precision, or if you need to do something as simple as scraping something off and want to use a nice fine edge. So needless to say, my blades dull and need to be replaced on a regular basis, so this is a good quality pack of blades by Milwaukee, and it is very good value at 50 blades for the affordable price.

Have so many of them

This utility knife has comfortable gripping and has never slipped like other, while cutting. The price has risen but I'd still choose Milwaukee brand over other utility knives

Great knife with great features. Durable and has just enough to get you by small tasks. The Philips and flat head screw driver is very handy along with the bottle opener too. Buy it and enjoy!

this knife surpassed my expectations. the blades dull out pretty quickly from just cutting boxes into pieces. ten bucks for 50 blades is kind of steep but the knife with blade pack combo for 20 bucks on sale feels like a fair deal because the knife is really easy to use and is above average quality.

Sharpest blade out there, don't last as long as some. I'll take sharpness over longevity anytime.

I went during a very busy time and was waiting for a little bit in line. A gentleman named Tyler was helping another person, and when he came up with a solution for that customer he turned to the ones waiting in line and took care of them. You could tell by the way he spoke to the customer and willingness to help them that he really is very knowledgeable about his job and cared about customer service. Honestly, I wish a lot more employees could be like Tyler and he honestly deserves the top pay that he could get for his position because employees like him are invaluable. I didn’t get a last name of him but he did complete my in-store pick up transaction if that helps identify who he is, he really deserves recognition for his work.

Dispenser does not work as advertised. Very hard to get blades out. Blades do not last as long as the others I have bought.

Great utility knife. comfortable in the hand and nice with the folding action. good price on it too.
