Very nice knife. Compact and easy to open and close with one hand. Would have given 5 stars but the advertisement is a little deceptice. It gives the appearance that the blade holder is stainless steel, or silver on both sides. Its not. It’s black on one side.

I love utility knives.I have been collecting utility knives with interchangeable razor blades for many years.The Milwaukee Fastback Compact Flip Utility Knife is no ordinary fixed blade folding utility knife.This is a game changer.This design uses a simple push button that unlocks the knife in both the open and closed positions.This is not a switchblade whatsoever.There is no spring-assist, lock-back or liner-lock mechanism.In fact, pushing the button does not do anything on its own.The action is a two-step process where you push the button while simultaneously flip it open or closed.The force of the flip is what makes this “Fastback” fast.The flipping action can be very addictive, like a fidget spinner.I just call it a fidget knife.It takes plenty of practice to get good at flipping this knife and I cut myself pretty bad on the close. It’s fun, but dangerous.There are several competitors from both major big box hardware retail stores that have copied the original design with their own store-brand copycat.What makes this different is that it’s compact, the outer body is plastic attached to an inner metal frame, making it lighter in weight and giving you a unique texture grip.Because it’s compact, it has no built-in blade storage.The engineering behind this remarkable design is just brilliant.The blade change happens from a push button on the left side of the knife.Although this design is clearly intended for right-handed use, I have opened/closed it with my left hand once and it works just as easy.What I found remarkable is that the blade retention is above average for this type of system with very minimal blade movement.The blade is right aligned.In other words, if you examine the blade from above, you will see that the blade is horizontally flush to the right.Several other utility knives in my collection have the blade perfectly center.I believe that this is the result of Milwaukee trying to make this knife as thin as possible. Good design, but certainly not perfect and that is partially why it is too easy to cut yourself when flipping this knife closed.The belt clip is supposed to be superior to the previous models, but it is not quite there. This knife has fallen off my pocket when it was attached as I had to bend down (back straight, bent with knees) to examine a project I was working on.I would like to recommend a longer belt clip that stretches from the very top to the very bottom at the full length of the handle for a more secure fit.There is no blade storage on this knife.I have several other utility knives that are much thinner with built-in blade storage.However, those knives are technically too thin to get a good secure grip.I praise Milwaukee for making this knife thin, but not too thin to hold.Another issue I found with this utility knife is that it’s “Made In China”.Milwaukee needs to support my country by manufacturing all of their tools in the USA.Most of the tools in my toolbag are made in USA and Milwaukee needs to join them.This is a very serious issue because I almost avoided buying this tool for THAT very important reason.Overall: Good price, amazing size, well built utility knife that does not copy any other design on the market.Despite all of the flaws, this is a very good utility knife. The fit and finish is pretty solid. This product has earned my recommendation.

This knife is near perfect. If you don’t need extra blade storage I could not recommend it higher. I was involved with the Team that introduced lock back utility knives in the 90’s and know the category well, this one is well designed and manufactured.

Great knife , use it everyday been using it everyday for 2 yrs now, bought a second one
Chelsea Rice (verified owner) –
Great combo for an electrician. The saw makes easy work on a re-work box into Sheetrock. The pocket knife is very handy and the ability to change the blade will pay off time after time. Highly recommend this Milwaukee product!

I thought that maybe this was a mistake, but it is the old version of the compact fastback just like it says. Cool.
Katrine Dicki (verified owner) –
I like this very much as it fits in my hand very nicely. I would buy it again.

The new guard over the button quick release is very good now I don’t accidentally eject the blade stripping big wires.

Got this on clearance and am really happy with my purchase. Basically two good tools for the price of one. Although this is not the Fastback which stores extra blades in the frame, it is the smaller version and carries better in the pocket. The jab saw is super sharp and as long as it stays that way, will be a great tool. No sheetrock near me is safe now.

I like the Milwaukee snap back utility knife the only thing I dont like is if your in a hurry when u shut it you could easily catch your fingers in between knife and blade
