[QUOTE=jnp;3059153]I don’t know about the one from Gerber, but I won’t use the ones from hardware stores. The blades come out when I bear down hard to cut drywall or wood.[/QUOTE]
I hung drywall in a garage conversion that I did. Redid the ceilings and walls and added a new wall that Garber knife was what I used for the whole thing mainly because I always had it on me. But if I were doing more than that, I wouldn’t recommend it because it’s too small to get a good hold on. But it did hold up well.
And yes, Perma, it’s a bit of a hassle to change the blades out but I’ve got a bottle opener on my key chain that fits right in that screw. I like how it holds the blades so I don’t worry about one coming out.
It’s not perfect but it’s been a pretty good EDC for me.
