Klein Tools Added a Pry Bar to their Utility Knife

Klein Tools has launched a new utility knife, model 44309, featuring a pry bar at the front.

This must be the trend these days – I’ve seen a few pry bar utility knives recently, with Klein only being the latest.

The new Klein utility knife looks a lot like their other FlickBlade models, featuring a button lock, lanyard loop, and 2 locking positions for the blade angle.

The front of the utility knife also has a padded nub, which allows the prying end to apply more leverage.

Klein says that the new utility knife:

effectively handles cutting drywall, opening packages, removing nails, and prying open paint cans.

You can’t use the knife and pry bar at the same time, which makes sense from a safety perspective.

Price: $20

Big question – do you prefer Klein’s approach, or Milwaukee’s? See Milwaukee is Launching a New EDC Utility Knife.
