Milwaukee 11-Piece Utility Kit
We were at Home Depot the other day and saw this item sitting on the shelves. It's sort of a slicing, dicing, cutting extravaganza. The system consists of a handle and a number of different blades that can click into it, like a recip saw chuck.
The blades are...
- Quik-Lok Job Saw
- Hunting Knife Blade
- Linoleum Knife Blade
- Grout Raker Blade
- Carbide Grout Blade
- Putty Knife
- Utility Blade
- Wavy Knife Blade
- Straight Knife Blade
- Paint Scraper Blade
- Roofer's Blade
Useful stuff, at least the ones we understand (wavy knife blade?) and it looks like a nice way to save some space in the tool bag. The kit comes with a case to keep things nice and organized. It costs about $45 which seems a little pricey for blades that are going to wear out. It's not uncommon that we go through five or six utility blades in a day. Then again, if you bought all of these blades on separate tools, it would cost plenty more than $45, so it depends on how you look at things....

interesting,seems like a throwback tool of sorts. I had this old electrical book from the 50's that showed a stanley knife that took all sorts of blades, drywall holesaw,linoleum utility, hook,etc, nowadays I only see hook and the common utility blade in stores, with the quick change feature now common, I'm surprise stanley doesnt offer more blades.
