New Stanley Carbide Utility Knife Blades

Stanley Carbide Utility Knife BladeStanley recently announced a new utility knife blade that features a carbide cutting edge for longer blade life, continued and consistent sharpness, and snap resistance. The blades are designed to excel at cutting challenging materials such as roofing, drywall, ceiling tile, and other tough materials.

Stanley uses a laser deposition process to apply tungsten carbide powder onto the edge of the blades. The cutting edges are then ground and finished to a sharp angle using diamond wheels. The tungsten carbide is only found on the blade edge, allowing the blade to remain flexible.

At the end of the day, these blades are said to last 5x longer than competitors’ blades. According to the data shown by Stanley in their product demo video, the carbide-tipped blades should offer consistent results. The competitors’ blades appear to be sharper initially, but only for the first dozen or two cuts after which they start to dull noticeably.

Stanley Carbide blades will be available in packs of 5 for $5 (11-800), 10 for $8 (11-800T), and 50 for $25 (11-800L).

    I found these blades a couple years ago, and tried them…one blade lasted thru 2 shingle roof jobs before I had to switch it out. I had trouble finding them in stock at any of my suppliers for about a year. Once I heard they were available again, I picked up a pack, and could not be happier with the performance. they work great, thank you stanley for making them available again.
