Overview

Cutting along a straight line with a serrated edge is what this Stanley tool is set up to do. The blade is forged chrome molybdenum alloy, and the handles mix metal, aluminum, leather and plastic in black and yellow.

A forged alloy blade and a serrated edge suggest a tool made for repeated cutting. The materials field is a long mix of finishes and handle parts, and the hand orientation entry is not useful.

Who it's for

Workshop cutting along a straight line is the natural job for a long straight blade. Buyers who need a specific material rating should find a listing that states it.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Forged chrome molybdenum blade
  • Straight cut pattern
  • Long blade for reach
  • Mixed material handles
Cons
  • Cut materials not stated
  • Thickness limit not stated
  • Hand orientation entry unclear
  • Finish list is confusing

Performance notes

The serrated edge grips the material as the blades close, which helps prevent slipping on smooth stock. A forged blade holds its shape better than a stamped one. The listing gives no cutting capacity.
