The Musical Penknife

stanley-knife-knife-pointDuring a recent episode of The Antiques Roadshow, Mr Hopkins from Berkshire took a musical penknife to be examined by the antiques experts.  This particular episode of The Antiques Roadshow was filmed at Broughton Castle – a beautiful stately setting near to Banbury.  It was antiques expert, Jon Baddeley who had the pleasure of meeting Clive Hopkins who had taken his daughter-in-laws musical penknife for a special day out.  Baddeley was amazed by the utility knife, not only because of its incredibly good condition but because neither him nor his colleagues had ever seen one before.  Due to these factors and the fact that this knife, similar to that of a Stanley Knife, is currently so popular and desirable, Mr Baddeley gave it the fantastic estimate of £80,000.  He stated that if no one has ever seen one before then people want it more and buyers are happy to pay more for a one off item as they want to be unique.

Swiss Stanley Knife

It was discovered that this magical, musical penknife was at least 200 years old having been made in Switzerland between 1810 and 1820.  It has two blades, one of which is silver gilt with inlaid sea pearls.  The musical element comes from a wind up key arm, which unfortunately was not working during its appearance one The Antiques Roadshow.  However, Mr Hopkins has promised that he will get the key fixed and return to the show in order for the antiques experts to see the penknife in its full splendour.  The family owning the penknife must make up their minds as to whether they wish to sell this unique item to a private buyer or to display it in a museum.

The Stanley Knife

The Stanley Knife – a small but heavy duty, extremely effective piece of kit which no one – home DIYer or professional craftsman – should ever be without.  There are many varieties to choose from, though some more popular than others, you will have heard of Stanley.  Stanley, for example, make many different types of snap off blade utility knives, including the Stanley Fat Max and the Stanley Interlock Knife.

What should every DIYer have in their Toolkit?

Toolkit-knife-knives-blade-knife-pointIn February, a survey was undertaken, asking members of the general public what their top 10 favourite (and by that it meant useful) workbench tools were.  Home DIYers were asked to participate in this questionnaire, in order to obtain what the most essential tools were in the British home.  Here, avid reader, are the results…

10th Spanner

9th Screwdriver

8th Hammer

7th Tape Measure

6th Socket Set

5th Pliers

4th Cordless Drill

3rd Saw

2nd Spirit Level

But can you guess what beat all other tools in to the number one top spot?  A rather generic term but it helpfully encompasses many types…the utility knife!  To define a utility knife, this is a short bladed knife which is able to cut through many different surface types – anything from wood to cardboard.  A modern utility knife has a blade which snaps off so that it is easily replaceable when it is getting a little blunt so as not to damage the item being cut through snagging or tearing.

Stanley Knife is Number One

The Stanley Knife – a small but heavy duty, extremely effective piece of kit which no one – home DIYer or professional craftsman – should ever be without.  There are many varieties to choose from, though some more popular than others, you will hard heard of StanleyStanley, for example, make many different types of snap off blade utility knives, including the Stanley Fat Max and the Stanley Interlock Knife.

Stanley Fat Max

The Stanley Fax Max has a blade wiper which helps to elongate the life of the knife and the blades individually, making it more economical as it lasts longer when you remove the excess debris.  Its handle is soft and padded enabling you to have maximum comfort and control, both at the same time.

Stanley Interlock Knife

The Stanley Interlock Knife is an extra heavy duty knife with snap off blades or the option of non segmented blades.  Despite it being a heavy duty and very sturdy knife, it is a very light knife because it is made out of diecast metal.  The interlocking mechanism is easily operated by being twisted and the wedge lock keeps the blades securely in position.

February’s Famous Four

heart-knife-february-famous-four-knives-knife-pointFebruary is the month of love, so we thought why not share with you the four blades we love the most, here at Knife Point, and the reasons why.  So here goes…

Swann Morton Scalpel Blades

These can be sterile or non sterile but either way, they are made out of carbon steel.  The non sterile blades come in blister packs of 5, packs of 100 and the sterile blades also come in packs of 100 but are individually sealed, hence their sterility!  For use with either, you may also wish to consider purchasing a Swann Morton blade remover unit which are available in packs of two, five or ten and hold up to 100 blades each.  Both of these items are commonly used in the medical or dental industry as they are highly reliable scalpels which make very fine incisions, perfect for detailed surgery or oral work.

Stanley Knife Fat Max

An extra heavy duty straight blade which fit all types of Stanley, Stanley Fat Max, Dolphin, Allegro, Shark and other hand tool types.  We love this blade type due to its versatility.  It’s incredibly sharp so can cut easily through a large variety of materials with the blade lasting a much longer time than an average knife.  This means that there is less down time so it earns you more money, especially as it is snap resistant.  The Stanley Fat Max is a good value knife which is highly valued by all tradesmen and is of course made by the world famous company, Stanley, whose reputation precedes them.

Planer Blades

Planer blades have made our top list because they will fit AEG, Black & Decker, Bosch, Festo, Haffner, Holzher, Kress, Mafell, Metabo and Scheer & Skil planers – what we mean is, you can buy one set of planer blades and they will work with any of these makes of planer!  This saves you money, rather than having to buy lots of different blades for lots of different tools!  They are made out of fine grain tungsten carbide and have an incredibly high quality, shiny finish, which is often described as a ‘mirror’ giving these blades the sharpest and keenest edge around!

Snap-Off Knives

Another innovative design from Stanley, where practicality meets safety!  These knives have blades which are created out of die-cast metal making them incredibly strong yet still light. Stanley have created this knife with a retractable handle so that the blades snap-off if there is an issue so as not to damage the knife or indeed the user!  These knives are easy to use, making DIY open to anyone, with their finger screwing operative locking mechanism and strong wedge type lock which holds the blade securely in its wanted position.  With Snap-Off Knives, it’s definitely safety first!

Razor Sharp Masterpieces

Olfa-EXTRA-heavy-duty-snap-off-knife

Artists think outside the box on multiple levels every time they complete a piece of work but Mark Langan has given a completely new meaning to the phrase, as hecreates artwork quite literally out of the box.  The 50 year old spends hours on end cutting, folding and gluing pieces of corrugated cardboard together in order to produce some of the worlds most environmentally friendly artwork pieces, recreating well known pieces such as Munch’s Scream, which he made out of somewhere in the realms of 2,000 individually cut pieces of cardboard box.  Each piece of work takes an average time of 120 hours and so far he has created 200 pieces to date.  Altough Langan is aware that his artwork is very low tech and it is in effect classed as “garbage art”, he is extremely particular about the brand of knife he uses in order to produce his masterpieces.  He likes to use non-toxic glue, a cutting mat, a steel rail, a ruler and an Olfa snap razor knife, which along with skill, planning, maths and patience are the keys to what is most definitely a spectacularly impressive portfolio.

More about Olfa Snap Off Knife

The Olfa Snap off knife is a heavy duty knife which is perfect for opening cartons, packages, cardboard, corrugated cardboard, boxes and much more.  Its blades are easy to remove and safe, easy and fast to replace.  This knife can be used by amateurs or professional DIY-ers either at home or in the work place, as they are just as good for cutting wallpaper as they are for doing arts and crafts projects at home.  These Olfa knives are light, easy to use and easily accessible for the use of people with any amount of experience.  Many Olfa knives, such as the Olfa extra heavy duty snap off knife, have a wheel look and a non slip rubber grip, too, because your safety is paramount to use.

How to Change Your Handheld Planer Blades

Changing your handheld planer blades is not a difficult process, as long as you follow a few basic steps. As experts in the supply of a variety of knives to the Sheffield area and further afield, we’re well placed to guide you on such matters. With that in mind, we’ve put together a few key steps to follow that will stand you in good stead when it comes to installing new planer blades.

Make Sure There is No Power Coming to the Tool

The first tip is an obvious one. To ensure your safety when you’re carrying out a change of blades, always make sure that the power supply is disconnected to the device. Changing the blades whilst the device is live is an absolute no.

Loosen the Bolts and Remove the Existing Planer Blades

The next step is to gently loosen the bolts or fasteners on your handheld device. You don’t need to completely remove the fastenings and easy blade removal will be possible through the initial loosening. Make sure that you take care when removing the blade as it’s likely to still be very sharp. You can then spin the cutter head round and repeat the process on the other side.

Replace with the New Blades

Once you’ve removed the existing blades you can then replace them with your new planer blades. To do this, gently fit the new blade with the shape of the planer blade groove and slide it into place. Hold it in the position where you would like it to remain, then take your wrench and loosely tighten up the outer two bolts on your handheld planer – simple.

Take Care When Tightening

During the tightening process you need to take care when tightening. The new blade will be extremely sharp so don’t rush through the replacement process. Before sliding the blade into place you may also need to remove any resin that has been left behind. You can do this using paraffin and oil or by gently scraping the debris away.

Make Sure the Alignment is Correct

The final thing to take care of is to verify that the knife is central with relation to its position on you handheld planer. This is essential, as it will prevent the knife from rubbing on the edges of the machine. Once this has been guaranteed you can finish tightening the bolts. Again, simply repeat this on the other side.

Stanley Knife Care & Maintenance

Stanley Knife Blades

Stanley Knife Blades

If you want to keep your Stanley Knife blades in tip-top condition, then proper care and maintenance is a must.

It’s important to remember to clean your knife after use, no matter how laborious this might seem. Even high-quality knives like the Stanley Fat Max, or the 1992 won’t last forever, so being sure to take the time and effort required to maintain your blades is crucial if you want to make the most out of your investment.

Luckily, it’s pretty easy to keep your Stanley Knife blades in great working condition. You can simply use a little soap and warm water to remove any debris, or build-up of oils and grime that your blades may have accumulated after use.

Before cleaning your knife, however, it may be best to detach the blade and clean them separately as different handles may require a different type of care and maintenance. This is also important when drying your knives, as it is easier to ensure no water or moisture has collected where the blade is inserted.

A word of caution, however – when using water to clean your knife blades, be sure to thoroughly dry your blades after cleaning them. This is because water can cause corrosion if left in contact with the blade for too long. You must also ensure that the blade is rinsed properly after using soap to clean your knife, as soap suds can cause the metal to tarnish.

Pro tip: If possible, use a lint-free cloth when drying your blades. Lint-free cloth is specially designed not to give off fluff when used, and therefore means there won’t be any build-up of fabric particles when drying off your knives. This means your blades will stay fluff-free and completely clean as you dry them.

A Lack of Accuracy with Existing Tools

Many people commonly work with tools that need either replacing or upgrading. The problem with a poorly maintained or incorrectly implemented knife blade is that it deeply affects the accuracy of the work occupying your time. Trimming knife blades can solve this problem and assure you the highest levels of accuracy every time.
