Compared to using a sharp utility knife that would dull on a single cut, this literally makes the job 100 times easier. The carbide tips haven’t lost any bite after a hundred or so cuts so far. The longer handle allows for a lot more force than I got with the Utility Knife. About five swipes along a clamped Straight Edge and Ive been getting a pretty clean-cut.

The first time i did a floor i didnt know this existed. I burned out several blade making minimal cuts to my cement board. The second and third floors I’ve are a different story. To make straight simple cuts, scoring with this will allow you to just break off your cut. For more complex cuts, the scoring gives a great groove for my sawzall to glide along. I rated it a 4 because after some heavy use. The plastic handle loosens a little.

It works as good as can be expected cutting thru cement board. It sure beats a utility knife. You do have to score it 8 or 10 times then maybe clean up the edges a little with the side of the knife. Overall I would have hated to cut the backer board without it.

This little knife does the job. We cut enough backer board with it to do a job in a basement bathroom, and it still cuts. It does take some effort to use, but it does work. You will have to make several passes. A utility knife simply will not do the job. Blades on a utility knife will dull immediately and will not cut backer board. The only thing a utility knife will do is cut the remaining mesh, but again, it will dull the blade.

This knife works better on backerboard than any other tool I’ve used!

VERY easy to use. I found that after multiple boards the handle became loose. Easy fix. Just tighten the screws. After cutting about 15 times tip is still as sharp as when I bought it.

I bought this to score lines on Hardie board and it’s worked great on the first three long cuts. You’ll want to score the line 3-4 times but after that the board will snap easily. If the carbide tip holds up for the next 50-60 cuts I will change rating to 5 stars. Very happy so far.

Hard to cut cement boards. Tried this tool again, works, but not well. Needs better cutting surface.
