CLASSIC 199 UTILITY KNIFE STANLEY       


MSRP: $9.78  
As most people know, roofing is not the easiest work, and when working on the roof the last thing you need is failing or inadequate tools. Like a utility knife that has dull or broken blades or just does not function correctly.
We use all different types of knives in roofing, and when a "straight blade" type knife is needed the Stanley 199 is hard to beat. It is sturdy, rugged, has a textured surface and tapered body for better grip and no moving parts to get clogged with roofing material.
Year after year this knife has out performed all others in the standard straight blade category. When used in conjunction with Stanley heavy duty knife blades it always delivers top performance. For trimming Built Up roofing edges or roof drains along with many other uses this knife remains our top choice in straight blade utility knives.
As a 40 year roofer and 25 year roofing contractor, knowing what tools to have my people use provides better quality to my customers as well as saving me money long term. I started with this knife over 40 years ago and have tried many others as well, but in all that time nothing compares to the Stanley Classic 199. It always has been and will continue to be our top choice.
Overall Rating: 5 out of  5
