Utility Knife Stanley FATMAX FMHT10594-0 Black Stainless Steel Yellow 18mm Width 165mm Length

The Stanley FATMAX FMHT10594-0 utility knife features a fixed stainless steel blade 18 mm wide and 165 mm long, mounted in a durable housing with a yellow and black finish. The knife is designed for repeated use in workshop and on-site environments where a reliable cutting tool is needed. Its fixed blade construction provides stable cutting performance and reduced blade movement compared with retractable designs, while the stainless steel material resists corrosion and maintains edge quality for routine tasks.

Advantages

The stainless steel fixed blade offers consistent cutting precision and good edge retention for common materials such as cardboard, plastic sheeting and tape. The ergonomic handle profile supports a comfortable grip for extended use and helps maintain control during straight and angled cuts. A robust housing in contrasting yellow and black improves visibility on busy work surfaces, and the simple, fixed-blade design reduces the number of moving parts that can fail under heavy use.

How to use

Hold the knife with a firm grip and position the stainless steel blade against the material to be cut. Apply steady pressure and guide the blade along the required cutting line. For thicker materials, perform several controlled passes rather than forcing the blade in a single stroke to maintain accuracy and reduce risk of slipping. Keep fingers and hands clear of the blade path and use a cutting mat or sacrificial surface where appropriate.

Recommendations

Regularly inspect the blade for nicking or dulling and replace the blade when cutting performance decreases. Store the knife in a safe place when not in use, and follow standard workshop safety practices including wearing appropriate hand protection and eye protection when cutting tough materials.
