If you haven't tried Irwin's bi-metal utility knife blades, I recommend them. I've found they stay sharp longer and resist bending better than regular blades. Good stuff. Even better, Irwin wants to give you a pack of 5 of them for free - go to
I recently converted over to the utility knife that has 10 or so blades on 1 stick that you break off to renew the point. Faster to load, faster to change points, and fewer blade changes.
They've got spaces for "country" and "state/province", but the fine print says that the offer is valid only in the US.

Those short blade knives are junk, even when free
Well, I tried, it works for the USA and Canada only, but not for New Zealand!! However, I bought some a couple of months ago, and I'm impressed with them.

Barry,
How on earth could you try Irwin blades with a last name like yours? I do realize you have too many n's and that the corporate borgs have intertwined.

Not free at all - you paid them with your personal contact information. Just for kicks I've started a list of the non-important companies I submit my info to - but I intentionally botch something to see if and where that info ends up. For example, in completing this Irwin offer I spelled my first name as Owyn. Now anything emailed or USPS'd to Owyn Lowe is easily identified as having the Irwin offer as the source.
Not very productive perhaps but it could be interesting if I keep up with tracking the incoming stuff and the dates.
I tired them and I thought they sucked. well they are not all that sharp that's my only real complaint. but they sucked at cutting cardboard. I sharpened one and it helped but what's the point? if it is duller then I like they are not worth the extra cost. Knight-Toolworks
I know, I have been given a hard time before on this! However, here in NZ, Lennox blades are never seen. The glass/ceramic Lenox is here, as is the Lennox A/C. I might have the Lennox/Lenox thing wrong here, but I understand in early Scotland the locals were non too literate so "anything went"
