Stanley 10-788 Contractor Grade Instant Change Utility Knife
I have had this knife for about three years now and use it constantly… A boss I had a couple years ago saw me changing a blade one day and wanted t osee it… I showed it to him and he liked it so much, he went and bought 3 or 4 for the shop. ALL of them worked PRECISELY the same as mine. It’s so perfectly simple to change blades, it’s downright silly, BUT… there is a catch…
This tool has one GLARING flaw… It’s simply not immediately obvious how to PROPERLY operate it to change blades. However, I have it down pat, so follow along and learn…
To remove a blade, it takes three steps…
1) Push the slider button down and forward ALL the way to the front until it stops (three position stops)…
2) Now, PRESS the slider button down and press forward… it will click and stay down.
3) FIRMLY press on the yellow release button with your thumb and grasp the blade and withdraw it…
To insert a new blade…
1) PRESS AND HOLD the yellow button and grasping blade with thumb and forefinger of opposite hand, insert blade into tool and push all the way back until it stop moving (there should be little or no resistance.
2) RETRACT the blade normally.
Notes:
1) If you try to insert a blade WITHOUT PRESSING AND HOLDING THE YELLOW BUTTON, the blade will pop the lock into place and the blade will not fit into the tool.
2) If when the blade is inserted and the slider is all the way back, if the blade sticks out any at all, then the blade is NOT installed correctly. Follow the steps to remove the blade and try inserting it again, and BE SUER to push it all the way back before releasing the yellow button. If you do this properly, you will have NO problems.
Having used a number of these knives, I assure EVERYONE, if you do these steps PRECISELY as described, this knife works perfectly every time!!! It really is JUST THAT SIMPLE!

I work in a warehouse and I need a good Box-Cutter, and of all the Box-Cutters I have owned and used, this one is by far the best. First off; you don’t need any tools to change the blade, and the knife holds about 6 blades in its handle which conveniently drops down. It takes me all of 20 seconds to change the blade, even less time if I am only changing which half of the blade sticks out. Another nice thing is that it is meaty and it has a rubber like material on the top side which gives you a grip that is un-real, so it feels secure and comfortable in your hand whether you’re wearing gloves or no gloves. Trust me when I say that this knife will not slip out of your hands, gloves or no gloves. It has a string cutting feature, but I have not used it so I will not comment on it. I have used the Knife for over two months now, and it has fallen off shelves, boxes, etc….. onto the cement floor (sometimes from as high as 7 or 8 feet) all I ever do is just pick it up cause nothing comes loose on it, and the knife still looks new. The Stanley 10-788 is truely a great utility knife, it is not a knife you will be replacing anytime soon, as long as you don’t let anyone borrow it.

Been using it for about 6 months. When I first got it I tore off the cardboard holder without reading the directions for changing the blades and had the same problems as many have posted. Once I found out how to use it, it works great every time. Blade changes are easy and reversing the blade is extrememly quick and simple. The blade always retracts completely. If you buy it, read the instructions!

This knife is awesome. It Swing out blade storage makes it real easy to change blades. The push button allows you to change blades without taking it apart, but it does take a little bit to get the push button down pat. All in All it is a nice razor knife.

I am a packer/shipper and use a box cutter/utility knife all day long. I have used the Stanley 10-499, the aluminum Craftsman version of the 10-499, and the recently the Stanley 10-788. The Craftsman is by far the best. I have been to Sears 4 times now looking for a replacement for my warn out one but without luck. The workers at Sears have no clue if the item has been discontinued or what. During an online search for new one I found the 10-788. The 10-788 does the job but at the same time is uncomfortable and very heavy. (I really liked the weight of the aluminum Craftsman since I have to carry the knife all day long.) This would be a good knife if I didn’t have to use it as much and didn’t have to carry it around. LOOK FOR THE CRAFTSMAN.
