Folding razor knife

[John Dirks Jr]

For you tradesmen, what in your experience is a durable reliable folding razor knife. I'm buying a gift for my son who uses razor knifes in flooring work.

Thanks

In my experience, none of the folding knives are good for everyday professional use.

Is there one that doesn't suck as much as the others?

They make one for carpet too. Here's the rub, neither of them fold. Get him a knife and a holster and save him the angst of a heavy folding knife that's hard to open and when finally opened, the blade will pull out during use.

Ill have to see if he wears a belt that would hold the holster. He does have Duluth fire hose cargo pants so I think he's been carrying the knife in a pocket. Not sure though.

What Chad said. With a bunch of hook blades.
