Everhard X-Long Cut Insulation Knife 5" blade MK46300

I was making a large Halloween prop out of big styrofoam blocks and needed to carve out shapes and angles where a hot knife wouldn't work. A utility knife, razors, saw blades, etc. weren't working very well at all, so I gave this a try after hearing a recommendation. Wow -- this sucker works great! It easily goes into the foam and cuts/slices either by plunging the squared-off tip or cutting like a traditional knife. The blade is nice and strong, but does have some flexibility so you don't feel like you'll ever snap it off.This will be my go-to tool for cutting and carving foam, whenever it's outside the realm of a hotwire cutter's ability.

This made my job so much easier today it’s unreal. I had a 3” knife before this one and I had a hard time cutting the thicker iso insulation, but this X-Long knife cut threw even the thick sheets like nothing and smooth straight cuts even on old iso that had been in the roof for years. Will definitely buy again, planning on buying a couple backups.

I like the distinct double sided edge on the knife but I just wish the blade was a little longer, other than that no complaints with this little batt knife.

They wanted $5,000 to insulate our attic. I bought just about all the insulation I needed off Craigslist for around $300. The bulk of it was 10" thick R-30 Fiberglass. I found if you use it like a saw for the first 2/3 of the way through, then slice the final 3 inches it cuts much faster. I couldn't imagine doing this job with a regular utility knife. While you are at it, pick up a full face respirator. You will be happy you did.

With this knife, n95 masks, and work gloves, i installed about $850 worth of fiberglass pipe insulation in my home after asbestos was removed.I decided to handle this myself when the lowest of 3 estimates to do the job was more than $10,000.I can use the savings for a nice vacation and have money left over.

This does work well. It came sharp right out of the box. For the price it’s good. Now that being said if it was anymore expensive then not. An old serrated bread knife would work just as well. I’m not sorry I bought this, but if you have that old bread knife give that a try first. Cheers!

Bought for my fiancé for work and he said "works good" lol.. He has no complaints!

I like very good

Came sharp, works good. We'll see how long tge plastic handle lasts
