Fiskars Crafts Heavy-Duty Easy Change Detail Knife, No. 2 Blade, w/#2, Multicolor

I've had Fiskars products of all types for many years - decades.Most are still in use because they work.This little craft knife is no exception.I really like the easy grip handle, versus the traditional longer and slimmer versions.I think it's easier to get a good grip when I need a deeper cut.I also like that I can use other blade types interchangeably.

I needed a craft knife that was easier to use and safer for the kids cutting out some papercraft stuff and I liked it well enough that I stole it back. I like the blade release with adjustable tension and it doesn't hurt your hands after using it for a while. I carved an 8x10 basswood panel with it

I do lots of crafting and this is a great tool to have.

This works well, is easy to hold and manipulate. I did learn that you have to ull out and twist the lever on the end of the handle to tighten the grip on the razer blade. Some reviewers complained that the blade was loose. That might be why. I wish the blade cover was better. Its flimsy and just has thin straps of plastic so it's not one solid piece. I ended up making my own blade cover. I do like that I can use different sized blades. Overall, this has worked well.

This knife is a must for hobbyists when it comes to having to make precision cuts in materials that are not so easy to cut through. The #2 blade gives you the toughness and the easy grip handle makes it easy to maneuver while cutting around curves and bends. The quick blade release makes for fast easy blade changes.

The grip on the handle is very comfortable and allows great control over the cut. It cuts foam board like butter.

I really like this knife handle more than any other hobby knifeand I've tried them all After a few days the rubber grip started to rub off which is extremely disappointing. Is this an awesome knife? Yes, is it heavy duty? Maybe, not the rubber though. I would still buy it again worn rubber is mostly an aesthetic problem more of a nuisance.

This heavy-duty craft knife is good and I really liked the large handle. However, I received it six days ago and the grey grip is wearing off. When the description states multi-color I presume it is referencing the white body, grey grip and orange logo. Cannot estimate how much usage I can achieve until the grey grip is no longer present but my needs are long-term and at this rate of “decay”, the description will need to be altered from multi-color to two-tone: white and orange. The image is of the handle after I brushed it off but still gives an idea of the issue.I agree with a previous reviewer in that the plastic blade sheath was poor planning from Fiskars. I nearly have to cross my eyes to get the blade in to the weird slotted cap just so I don’t injure myself. No one wants a product where reviews state, “…constantly stabbed and sliced my fingers trying to preserve the sharp edge…” What I wound up doing was taking a sharpie and blackening some of the slats. Slow down Fiskars.How about formulating a longer lasting grip?How about a redesign on the blade sheath, you know, for the welfare of your patronage?I wll be back with an update on the "life" of this grey grip.EDIT:A few days after posting the above review with two pictures I am now back with an update for any interested parties. These additional uploaded pictures really quash the comfort and control portion of the advertisement. Thank goodness for the Full Lifetime Warranty!Fiskars, keep plenty of these craft knives on hand for as soon as the “Comfort and Control” wears off I will be requesting a replacement: again and again. Dropping to two-stars from previous three stars.
