The retractable blade mechanism locks securely into position during use and retracts for safe storage when not in use. The high-visibility body makes the tool easy to locate in a crowded tool pouch or on a busy work surface. Weighing 0.39 pounds, it is lightweight enough for extended use without hand fatigue. Tradespeople across HVAC, plumbing, electrical, and general construction trades keep this knife on hand for scoring, trimming, and cutting a wide range of materials.

The 10-179 is suited for residential and light commercial job sites where a reliable, compact cutting tool is needed. It handles common cutting tasks such as scoring insulation, trimming vapor barrier, cutting cable sheathing, opening packaging, and general material prep work.
