- Utility blade knife sharpness test: blade edge integrity and frictional loss using cardboard, drywall, copper pipe and staple. Stanley, Stanley carbide, DeWalt Carbide, Milwaukee, Masterforce, Craftsman, Lenox, Husky, Kobalt, Hyper Tough, and Irwin tested. I highly recommend 2 blades, one for value and the other stands out as the best but it does cost the most.

Great Test.. Could you include maybe some of the Fiskar blades? I have the titanium blades from fiskar but I think they may be discontinued?
was wondering if you have ever used olfa utility blades
Like to see difference between dewalt regular vs their 3x, 5x, and 10x longer lasting blade.

This is great!
Can you please test and see if ceramic blades are better that traditional metal razor blades? They sell the “slice” brand ceramic blades on Amazon
I just picked up a 50 pack of Lenox carbide edge. I assume it would be comparable to the dewalt but only one way to find out. 🤙
Don’t forget guys, this guy is always unsponsored, and spends a lot of money on each of these videos. He’s saving us money by making them so we should remember that this guy has a patreon
Thank you very much!
Yes, it is the main reason I love this channel
chris bro he spend at least 2days for a video of less than 800k meaning 800dollars. And he spend maybe half of it in cost. 200per day is not enough you should support.
Chris, Must be a Democrat. Someone helps us at their expense. They in turn make money from their hard work and dedication. Suddenly you’re upset because someone pointed out that he’s hard-working, dedicated to his goals and puts his own money into these tests. When we get off the couch and work, we have something bigger than success. We have significance..... whew that was the most aggressive comment I’ve ever written.
chris CZcamsrs don’t make as much as you think. And even if he does make enough to cover the stuff he buys, what about the money for his efforts? You wouldn’t make someone work for you for free would you?
This test was not cheap and took time to complete. Hats off to Project Farm.
Thank you!
@@ProjectFarm Your tests without complex and expensive machines are amazing. Some of your solutions to testing while having reasonable control of variables is very impressive! Always entertaining.
@Steve They are!
@Sometimes I do things They can always fast forward to the charts where he shows the comparisons.
Thanks for these videos, they have lead to many purchases that I'm quite happy with!!!
I'll bet the manufacturers of all the products you've tested, never dreamed there products would be scrutinized so thoroughly on CZcams. It's great for the consumer. I hope you're being rewarded for all the hard work you put into everything you test. You deserve it.
Thanks!
But, that keeps them honest. You can't just say you're going to "last 10 times as long" or "our blades are 10 times as sharp" without Todd saying "we're going to test that"
Hello thanks for reviewing. I’m a drywaller and occassionally score metal studs. I’ve always bought husky or kobalt 2 for one packs and they’ll last me a year. A bunch of guys I work with shell out for Lenox and I can see your data proves it. New to your channel, thank you for the great reviews. This one in particular you’re helping a lot of working class hero’s out by your dedicated channel
You are welcome! Thanks for sharing.
Hero?
@@snakeinthegrak8969 The hero we need or the one we deserve?
@@huejanus5505 well building and fixing shit is what I do for a living and hero isn't a title any of us deserve.
Im a plasterer and i use Lennox blades for mostly cutting mesh tape and blown out boxes. They just seem to last longer for me. I have yet to find a utility blade that doesn't chip when it hits a drywall screw.
You keep hanging it and ill cover it up.
Wonder when companies are going to start saying “ Project farm approved “ on packaging.
lol. Thank you!
Then he can sue for using his name without permission. 😂
That’s awesome
"P.F. Says" will replace J.D. Power
They must pay a fee for that!
Project farm : releases a video
Every know manufacturer: *holds breath*.
Thank you for your 100% unbiased videos 🙏
Thank you for the feedback.
A CZcamsr that really makes manufacturers nervous is the Lock Picking Lawyer. I saw an article where Amazon had pulled an Amazon brand small pistol safe after an LPL video showed how easy it was to bypass the locking mechanism.

I didn't think there was any significant difference in these, but after watching your vid, I see that there is. I went out and bought a huge pack of DeWalt blades. WOW - those things are durable!! Been using them for a drywall job, and I'm amazed how long they are lasting. Thanks so much for this one.
You are welcome! Thanks for sharing.
I usually buy these in 100 packs and it seems I go through a lot of them, because they just become frustrating (and dangerous!) after a short while of use. But I am down to the last 5 and thought "I'll check Project Farm" before buying my next 100 pack. You never fail! Thanks.
You are welcome!
so which one did you get?
I'm not sure why I watched this video, but I guess its because it's project farm. I still have about 30 blades left from the cheap blades that came with my blade handles. 30 blades last me 2 years...lol. Yep, I am addicted to this channel.
@@JKinLVN I use a lot of blades because in the work I do with utility knives I cut a lot of corrugated cardboard. I was interested in the economics of whether a more expensive blade may actually save me money.
It's certainly not a life changing expense...so I guess I am just addicted to this channel also. 😁

As an engineer I can't appreciate enough your attention to details, custom test rigs and data compilation. Not to mention the time spent...
Great job as usual.
Thank you very much!
You're welcome, it is a well deserved praise. Will be waiting for the next video.
@@ProjectFarm do you test a number of blades though from each group? its hard to call it statistically significant data without a large sample size
I definitely appreciate the effort of his testing different thing, and his dedication to funding everything himself and being open with his results, now if the rest of the consumers of products followed his lead, the marketers of higher priced inferior products would have to make a choice... either put up, or shut up then shut their doors for good!
@@jacobwinters2593 You'd think that these companies would have quality control standards to make each batch of blades similar in quality and hardness. I'd call his data about as statistically significant as you can get without wasting hundreds of dollars to get a lower significance level. I'd probably avoid buying a certain brand if I knew they had poor enough quality control to warrant larger sample sizes in a test like this anyways.
Forgot to mention how I love and value your concise presentations. Max relevant info in the least amount of time. Priceless!!!
Thanks so much!
Easily one of the best channels on the platform. I'm so impressed with how thoroughly he tests everything. Such dedication is rarely seen.
Thanks!
So true! You can see his dedication to the craft.
Man, I know you're reading this, so I just wanted to say. This is simply, the best channel on CZcams. I know you won't believe it, but trust me you are. Most of the time I don't even have a use for the subject of the video but I'm just mesmerized by your experiments. Keep up the great work & thank you for the awesome vids!
Thank you very much for the positive comments. It means a lot and keeps me motivated to keep testing more products!
Erich amen to that man, I have learned so much from this guy it’s unreal, I’m able to help suggest products to friends and family with great confidence now and I have PF to thank for that
Yes it is! Give Hydraulic press channel a try
The jigs you come up with just straight up inspiring. That dulling jig is the best designed absurdly specific thing I have seen all year easily
I think you’ve found your calling, you’re fantastic at making these kind of videos! Keep up the good work brother!
Thank you very much!
Project Farm, agree with Jason, you keep putting out great content! Have a video idea to consider: which chain saw sharpening technique is best? round file vs square file and hand file vs machine file
I’m stuck in a loop of watching your videos. Just bought my first house about a year ago and your videos have helped me make decisions. Thanks for your videos and especially your attention to detail.
That is awesome! Thanks!
Todd, I am continuously amazed at the range and quality of your tests. Every time I click on one of your videos I learn something.
Great to hear!
Love this channel
This test is absolutely accurate. I am constantly using blades at work from cutting jackets and sheathing off of copper or fiber optic cables, to sharpening carpenter pencils. I have probably used every blade out there, I can honestly say that I have stuck with the new DeWalt Carbide due to me not having to change it out as often. I was impressed with the Milwaukee at first but I noticed the chipped edges came up a lot. Watching this video I was able to make accurate calls on which blades were going to outperform others and this test was spot on lol.
Thank you very much!
Think a blade can get to sharp and have no longevity to it i find the same if i sharpen my chisels to much they go dull quicker
I have a 100 pack of Milwaukee blades in my desk at work and I can't wait until I use them all up...the edges roll over and chip easier than any blades I've used before. I'll have to try some of the DeWalt carbide blades at some point.
Carpet install folks use Orcon trimmer blades.. 👍
They can be resharpened but No one ever would because they are so cheap.
I have to say if you buy in bulk you SEVERELY drop the cost per blade though. I love the Irwin blades, and buy them in packs of 100...which ends up costing about 6-7 cents per blade.
Thanks for sharing.
Duwalt is better than Irwin. Irwin sucks. I wouldn’t care if I got them for 6 or 7 cents. I’d chuck them in the trash. Duwalt you can buy in bulk too, it’s a little more expensive but from my experience (I’m a contractor) you also won’t be changing them as often.
The real cost of the blades is walking around trying to find where the hell you have all your spare blades.
The blade is unbreakable and the cutting edge holds up. The value pack is the way to go
@@kevind1865 How true, how true!!
You the man, My Dude. Really appreciate all the video's helping us not get bamboozled.
Thanks and you are welcome!
This guy make are with those reviews, i never seen such high end in depth professional reviews. Well done sir, you deserve my likes and sub. 👏👏👏
Thanks for watching and subscribing!
In terms of overall quality, this is quite possibly the best channel on CZcams. This guy _devises_ an effective and unbiased method for comparing all types of things, takes no sponsors, instead spending his own money. The man could start his own standards organization but instead he spends hours and hours making these videos for us.
Thank you Project Farm
i think im asensual
This is one of the few channels you actually see actively seeking and implementing feedback, it's great to see. I saw a comment last video about adding more labels to the graphs and it's already done today. Love the videos, keep up the great work
Thank you very much! Yes, I read as many comments as possible and implement suggestions. It helps me improve!
Project Farm is by far the most professional youtuber.
@@davehimlin2374 You must be hanging with a bad crowd.
I agree, PF is a top notch channel, and honestly, I can't understand how he doesn't have ~5 million subscribers like a lot of these other channels. MinutePhysics - 4.84 million, ChrisFix - 5.4 million, SmarterEveryDay - 7.47 million, EngineeringExplained - 2.47 million. These are some of my favorites and Project Farm is easily on their level as far as providing good information and even more involved with his subscribers. We need to all help boost his subs!
> I saw a comment last video about adding more labels to the graphs and it's already done today
That was me :)
Already made another comment to thank him for it, but thank you again here.
Awesome video! Thank you for taking the time to put this together. The equipment you invested in and designed was very cleaver and made for a fair and accurate test. Very well done and professional.
Thanks and you are welcome!
I really have a lot of respect for this guy and the channel as a whole! Thanks for the help selecting the best product in every category!
I appreciate that!
Can we appreciate his efforts? Like holy cow he did all of that, just to enlighten us
Thank you!
I hope people understand the effort that went into this video. Between designing the test jigs, graphs, etc., and editing everything to flow smoothly, three cheers to Project Farm!
Thanks for that!
Laughable Moments for some reason, a lot of people hate on him. It’s obvious that he’s putting lots of effort into these.
here, here
@@ProjectFarm you do a great job of unbiased testing, which has a real benefit to we the viewers..Thank you
i think he is awesome. lots of cool test from tools to oils ect. can learn alot here. i try to watch all his videos
I realize how much work is involved in your tests. Thanks for the upload.
You are welcome!
OMG I can't believe the amount of work, expense, and attention to detail you put into this. Amazing!
Thank you so much!
2:02 The Milwaukee says it has "carbides dispersed in a steel matrix" which is literally a description of high carbon steel, it's interesting how brands will use technical jargon to convince you that their product is somehow superior or better engineered
You'd hope that they mean carbides other than iron (cementite). But even that hope isn't much, as that again describes most alloys (e.g. Cr-V).
"Our cars come with adjustable windows!"...
@@T3sl4 In some cases certain types of carbides can do more harm than good if they are too large too. I've found a lot of cheap stainless steel won't hold an edge or even take a decent edge because the chromium/carbides are so coarse they chip out and leave a rough edge, or at least that is my understanding of what's happening at a microscopic level
You also have to think of heat treat. A steel can have perfectly adequate chemistry, but have a suboptimal heat treatment. This can cause many problems, including the issues you described. Chromium carbides are only one possible carbide, you also have vanadium, tungsten...none of them worth anything if the steel has a junk heat treatment!
As for utility blades...I have a 100 pack of the husky. They do the job. You can always sharpen them if you really want to get your money's worth!
@@T3sl4 I've heard of those, do they come with a door glass regulator or is it a separate purchase ?
@@TheBrewjo it's a separate purchase and good luck getting the door panel off without breaking all the fastener clips. We make sure to engineer them as single use, which can only be sources from the dealer at a cost of $15 each
The Milwaukee “iron carbide” blades... also known as steel
Thank you
Lmao
Hahaha the marketing is on fire
What?!? Steel is iron with a few percent carbon added?!???? LOL
I tried these the other day. Tbh, as far as "sharpness" goes, they were not as good as much cheaper brands, however they are definitely more durable.
A friend of mine got me a dewalt utility knife he found on clearance. I was amazed how durable the blades that came with it held up and stayed sharp. I would buy them again.
The 50 pack of carbides is worth every penny.
Thank you for all of the tremendous effort in comparing the wide assortment of tools and products! This information eliminates countless hours (and frustration with sub-par goods) for your followers!
You are welcome!
Never thought I'd be taking 11 minutes of my life to compare utility knife blades, but here I am glued to my screen...

You're welcome 😊
Again I’m impressed at how well you go about testing different products. “How can he effectively test razor blades?”
“Oh...a sharpness tester and weighted sled, of course!”
Keep up the good work!
Thank you!
A cheap razor blade that stays sharp a long time is a great test idea.
I imagine his shop is filled with lots of strange handmade testing devices
He probably had some pretty fancy torture devices in his bomb shelter too.
It Won't Hurt for Long
WTF? You’re a weirdo.
I imagine his shop is filled with destroyed lawnmower engines.
Quality info with transparent testing.
I appreciate the density - no waiting of my time.
My employer has no coherent policy and we end up with assorted low quality stuff, so I've been looking for a few critical, low cost items to just buy myself to avoid the annoying unpredictability.
Thanks much!
You are welcome!
It was great to cover different applications and best blades for each. For breaking down cardboard boxes, i use a 4in micro serrated knife. Kind of like a file or rasp on each side of the blade.
Honestly, this is the best tool review channel on youtube. Not only are these tests really fun, but extremely detailed and informational. Hats off to you!
Thank you very much!
No doubt about it! Every time I watch an episode, I find myself so bummed, just anxious for the next episode! Great reviews! Just love them and they’re very detailed, too!
This is the most amazing thorough razor blade video I've ever witnessed, thank you for this!!
Thank you very much!
Same here. Greatest razor blade vid ever. I mean, I assume, since it's the only razor blade video I've ever seen.
@@mattrondeau7466 true it is the only one I've ever seen, but I'll never need to watch any other one ever. 😂
Thanks so much for your great videos. You have become my go to before I purchase items. I love the way you come up with the creative testing methods.
I f finally found the video that you bought the sharpness test for! Fascinating piece of equipment.
I make a lot of my purchases based on your test, thanks for doing these videos!
Thank you very much! I'm glad the videos are helping viewers find the best products!
It was literally yesterday that I was replacing the blades in my utility knife after chopping up a bunch of cardboard, when I thought to myself "that Project Farm channel should do a video on the best utility blades." Funny how that works.
PulseCrisisMusic same happened to me with the car batteries!
I've been noticing this kind of thing a lot. I think the internet makes people psychic.
If you really want a good cut through cardboard try an electric knife with serrated blades. Runs through it like hot knife through butter. I have been doing this for 2 years.
I enjoy seeing the test rigs you come up with just as much as I enjoy the reviews themselves. Kudos!
Thank you very much!
Thank you so much for creating a test and making a video with this format! I wish other youtubers would test things this way. Thank you also for adding the links to the blades so I don't have to go back through the video! Merry Christmas!
You are so welcome! Merry Christmas!
I love how you take out the subjectivity out of your tests. I had no idea they made that blade sharpness indicator. That was impressive to see. Great job as always!
Thank you
It sound like I’m listening to a sport commentator when he tests the sharpness
You should watch his videos on engine oil testing.
I guess the addictive to watch his channel come from the way he presented things.
You are doing the world a great service with these comparison videos.
Thanks!
This is a level of rigour brought to testing that just makes me happy. Thorough. My compliments, sir!
Wow, thank you!
So not even a minute in and I can already tell this is going to be a good comparison, the fact Project Farm has decided to use an actual sharpness tester instead of just newspaper really says how much effort he's put into the video straight away. All newspaper is good for testing is whether or not the edge is the right angle for cutting newspaper, once a blade gets used, that "perfect" edge starts getting lost and cutting paper doesn't give the information you actually want.
Thank you!
Good point, its a bit of a silly fad and doesn't prove anything.
You are right, this is a professional tester he used!
Some University should give this guy an honorary degree. He uses more engineering, science, math, and instructional design than most college courses.
Wow, thanks!
No ....schools are now teaching that Democrats are telling the truth
I disagree. He uses common sense. Which is not taught in schools.

Glad you enjoyed!
You should open up a store with all of your "PF APPROVED" items you tested. I would definitely buy. Biggest thumbs up for not being sponsored so the comparisons are fair. Great job
Thank you for the feedback
A lot of us work outdoors and this time of the year it gets cold! I have a suggestion. Compare thermal mugs' ability to keep stuff HOT when it's cold outside! ;)
Great video suggestion! Thank you
great idea but the opposite is also applicable for example on this week is going above 45 degrees celcius (113f) so i would like a test for keeping ice water cold
Thats a great suggestion! Would love to see that! Then he can use them as xmas gifts when hes done 👌🏻
@@dominicbeltz9057 It seems that the Tervis (plastic) is great at keeping things cold in the summer but fails miserably in the winter. A cheap stainless one from Walmart keeps my tea quite warm even after sitting in a cold truck for hours.
That's actually a cool suggestion. Especially considering the big spread in how much those mugs/cups cost. Some require a loan shark and a kidney function check for collateral.
Thank you for the awesome testing and documentation of all the products that you test! Best of all, thank you so for being the "Real Life and Live on Camera and Audio Consumer Reporting Expert Tester!" You are the spectacular and thank you for all that you do without "Payola!"

“Next we will be testing these blades on this old lawnmower...”
genuinely laughed at this
lol. I actually did think about it!
That lawnmower has been through a lot. Haha
Will a lawnmower run on razor blades.
Yes. How about a few blades in the cylinder with the clear head on it.
Speaking of which, I have a bad story. When I was young I would ne mowing the yard. It would be toad season and there would be thousands of baby toads hoping around. I would pick one up and send it for a ride though the engine. I would remove the filler and stick them in the intake. Then I would see a few sparks shoot out the exhaust and with little toad legs v etc. It was awesome and a bit cruel. But done in the name of science. Would love to see that with the clear cylinder head.
The dry wall test was the most needed for me as i hang it for a living
Thank you for the feedback
thank you for your very honest reviews, accurate information presented in a clear, concise, easily understandable form, with real life scenarios.
Thanks so much!
Some amazing, mind boggling patience you have for doing the tests you do on this channel.
Thanks!
Now to figure out which ones dont disappear as soon as you set them down.
Yes, the 5 finger discount problem.
That's why I use a folding box blade with a clip, and put right back in my front pocket soon as I'm finished with it.
@@CommodoreFan64 I tell myself I do that too, but it always still manages to disappear on me when I really need it.
Just like a 10 mm socket. Hey @projectfarm, that's a video idea, what 10mm socket remains longest lol
Right, they'll steal'em for sure. I always gotta remember to put it in my back pocket.

I'd like to see your take on a sharpening tool comparison.
Great suggestion! I'll do it
Yes!!
@@ProjectFarm As a knife guy, I'm looking forward to seeing an outsider's perspective :)
Spyderco Sharpmaker... (V-angle style, ceramic rods ) Easy, relatively safe... portable.. Comes with medium and fine grit, but has an ultra fine grit available, about $60...
Scott Crawford if he wants to test one of those I’ll send him mine. I’ve not got the patience for it. I went with a 1x30 and will never do it by hand again.
"Made in the US with global materials" is marketing speak for "Chinese blades packaged by a machine contracted out by a half dozen companies".
You're wrong.
it probably means cutting & grinding from sheet metal was done on US soil.
That is not how I'd interpret it. As far as the source of steels, India would have close to the same probability as China as being the source. Where we have to worry is when implanted medical hardware is not tracked well from the source.
@@davidk7544 Well China has the biggest usable iron ore productions and it is pretty well know that Japan and the US are big customers.
I work at General Motors, almost every part and product is imported from China/Mexico/Canada. It's just "assembled in the USA" which means they can claim it's made in the USA.
This is what these product review channels strive to be like. This guy is too good.
Thanks!
Project Farm is my favorite show by far. Thank you Mr. Farm. You rock, sir. You rock.

New label: "PF Approved", the true of the things.
Thank you!!
What is PF APPROVED ????
@@ShelliLoop Project Farm Approved
Definitely make it easier to by the right thing first every time!!!
I've changed a few items or looked for ones I've seen tested. Makes a difference
been using the stanley carbide for years. was happy to see it up there with the big boys
Thanks for the feedback.
This is a reviewer I can really get behind. Great consistent testing, I love it. Keep it up!
Thanks, will do!
Didn't need to watch this to know Stanley would be the winner. 10+ years of tile work proved it to me. Excellent video!
Thanks so much!
There's a reason that here in the UK they're just generically called Stanley Knifes.
.... But Stanley wasn't the winner
@@dalyclose7815 Was going to say the same thing. Dewalt was. Stanley was a good value blade though. And for cardboard specifically, Lennox seems to be the best.
Yeah Stanley didn't win but the standard are the best bang-for-the-buck, I use Stanley standard because they sell them everywhere and they're cheap. I haven't tried the FatMax carbide blades.
Subscribed for all those test cut pieces lost to this awesome work
Thanks for watching and subscribing!
Wow! So much work went into this! I just found a ton of Dewalt blades at work today! Looks like I scored, thanks for the great video
You are welcome!
You should test gunk and gum removers like Goof off and the citrus based removers. thanks for the great content
Thank you for the video idea!
Goof off blue monster etc.
I use 3M General Purpose Adhesive Cleaner.
Citrol. Game over
I'd love to see this. Because I've never had goof off work like expected
You should do a 2019 round-up that sums up the best of each test with the graphs that accompany the tests. It may be a little late for Christmas ideas but would be a cool idea. Love the videos, keep it up!
Great suggestion! Thank you
Great idea
Second this
I love the effort you put in this and I’m glad i know that Stanley blades are in 4th cause even though they’re cheap the they will always be my go-to
Thanks for sharing.
Great work man! Keep up the helpful reviews! 🙌🏼🙌🏼
I’m starting a running list of the top rated products for myself so I stop wasting money on crap
Thank you!
Post up the list on a Google doc!
Include the date of the review, because manufacturers often change products.

Your videos beat any kind of reviews you can read online. Keep up the great work
Thanks, will do!
You're the best. Plain and simple.
Thanks!
Can you do gun oils ? A freeze test and so on I love the way you do comparison videos. By far the best and most fair comparisons on CZcams
Thank you for the video idea!
@@ProjectFarm Could you include Corrosion X in that testing. This is what I have been using for gun oil for many years and it works great for me. I'd like to see how it stacks up against the formal gun oils. I also use it on my knives.
@@ProjectFarm and WD-40. Not recommended obviously, but many people use WD-40 as gun oil.
