How to use

Hold the STANLEY FATMAX All Purpose Knife with a firm grip and align the blade with the material to be cut. Apply steady pressure and move the knife along the cutting line; for thicker materials use several shallow passes rather than a single deep cut. Retract or sheath the blade when not in use and store the tool in a dry place to maintain the stainless steel finish. Replace the blade according to visible wear or reduced cutting performance, following standard safety precautions such as cutting away from the body and wearing protective gloves when needed.

Usage recommendations

Use the knife for its intended tasks: cutting packaging materials, plastics and ropes. Avoid using the blade on hardened or metallic objects to prevent rapid wear. Regularly inspect the blade and mechanism for debris and corrosion; clean and dry after exposure to moisture. For prolonged cutting tasks, consider using multiple shallow passes and replace blades promptly to maintain safe, efficient cutting.
