Klein Tools Utility Knife with Hawkbill Blade and Conduit Lockout Wrench Set with 1/2, 3/4 and 1-Inch Offset Bends, 3-Piece

Love this knife. Little on the heavy side, but easy to know which pocket it is in. Love the curved blade!!

Great knife, the round shape makes job easier in so many ways

UPDATE: Well, this knife was great for cutting sod. However, it dulled almost immediately. I was hoping to get at least 3 or 4 uses out of it, but one use of several cuts was all the blade could take. I know that cutting sod is not what the knife is designed for, so you can take that comment or leave it. I will have to find another tool for cutting sod.Original review: I wonder if South Florida is the only place where you use sod instead of grass seed? When installing a square of sod (grass growing out of a chunk of dirt), you may have to fit it around a curved area, or fit it into a spot of bare ground. I bought this curved "hawk bill" knife to cut either the grass that is already growing, so I can put in a full square of sod; or to cut the piece of sod to fit my space. I'm not doing a complete lawn; I'm just patching the brown or bare spots. I am using the knife to cut straight down through the grass and the roots, and then use a spade or shovel to remove what is not wanted. So far, this knife has done the job. It is strong enough and sharp enough. It opened and closed a little stiffly the first couple of times, but then it seemed to get better. I always wear thick leather gloves when doing yard work, so I close this knife with gloves on. You have to endanger yourself to close it--you have to squeeze the bottom of the knife handle to release the lock on the blade. But the blade doesn't snap back, and you can hold the blade with your other hand to guide it when closing the knife. Using a handheld knife instead of a power tool gives me more control of what I'm doing. I just have to remember to keep my feet out of the direction of my cuts. I looked at a LOT of knives and read all the reviews. This seemed to be the best answer to my needs.

The design is the same as if it were a folding linoleum / carpet knife for floorcoverings installers.Very sharp and yet the blade is knife-strong, not like a razor bade box cutter type thin blade. The overall build is strong also, no blade wobble, and plastic hand grips have a good feel.I'm not a knife nerd, so I have not mastered the "one-hand open and close", but my friend can do it, although he says the newness means it is very dangerous, still being so tight to move.I used to work in electrical wholesale, and I definitely would stock these in my store.Not sure what country this is from, but don't let that stop you. Whichever factory is turning these out is doing a reputable job of it.

I work as a HVAC Service Tech. I run into many situations where I'm cutting at a very awkward angle, and utility knives are horrible as they're very short and flimsy. Cutting through a bead of silicon holding an indoor coil box closed? Yeah no thanks. I've been using a pocket knife with a longer blade for its sturdiness. But the angle is still... awkward. I came across this knife while looking for a sheepsfoot knife(the angle is just right), and decided to give it a shot.Its great! I've been using it quite heavily and its still sharp as a fresh utility knife blade. The over all construction is solid. Its a bit on the heavy side, but I like my work blades to have a bit of heft to them. Oh, and the fact that the blade is replaceable? Makes it so I'm not afraid to get in there with the tip and really lever on it without fear of having to spend $40 on a whole new knife if it breaks.I have ONE complaint: There isn't a Lanyard loop. Theres no where to attach a length of line so that if I'm up on a ladder, or hanging from a harness, and accidently drop the sucker theres no worry of it falling on someone. Also, makes it nice to be able to just let go and its still close to hand. I have to completely put the thing away to free up my hand, even if I'm doing a lot of cutting work.That's why a 4 out of 5, instead of a solid 5.Overall, this is a great buy. I'd recommend this to any electrician or HVAC Tech.

This has been my favorite knife since before I became a certified electrician. It is well made, strong and very versatile. This is my every day carry pocket knife. This is my third one, but only because I lost the first two, I haven't been able to wear one out. You can get hawk bill or straight blades for it which adds to it's versatility. I have always been a fan of Klein tools, but this little gem is amazing. I won't be caught without one in my pocket.

This tool did a great job in cutting thick cable insulation - be careful though, its EXTREMELY sharp! Also comes in handy cutting anything a razor knife could cut. Very study and comfortable in your hand. Great tool!

Bought as a gift for my nephew, it is perfect
