Stanley 10479-0 Retractable Utility Knife

640.00

  • 5-Position Blade Slider: Offers the most granular depth control in the Stanley lineup. This allows you to set the blade extremely shallow for thin veneers or fully extended for deep insulation cuts.

  • Tool-Free Instant Blade Change: Features a prominent push-button on the nose. You can eject a dull blade and slide in a new one in seconds without opening the housing or using a screwdriver.

  • Massive Internal Storage: The handle opens to reveal a high-capacity storage compartment that can hold up to 10 spare blades, significantly more than the standard 3-5 blades held by most other models.

  • Exposed Blade Step: The nose is designed with a small “step” that exposes the back of the blade. This allows you to verify the blade is properly seated visually and physically before you start a heavy cut.

  • Interlocking Overlap Nose: Like all top-tier Stanley knives, the nose halves overlap to lock the blade in place, preventing “nose spread” when prying or cutting through dense materials.

  • Tether Loop: Includes an integrated loop at the base of the handle, allowing you to secure the tool to a lanyard for safety when working at heights (roofing, scaffolding).

  • Bi-Material Comfort: The yellow-and-black design combines a rugged metal frame with soft rubber over-molding for a secure, non-slip grip.

Description

This is a robust, zinc-cast metal utility knife with an ergonomic bi-material grip. While it looks similar to the 10779-8, it features a more refined 5-position slide for precise depth control and a “Push Button” quick-change mechanism. It is specifically balanced for heavy tasks like scoring plywood, cutting rubber, and installing shingles.
