STANLEY® Trimming Knife Blade:1992 Tungsten Carbide

Stanley recently announced a new utility knife blade that features a carbide cutting edge for longer blade life, continued and consistent sharpness, and snap resistance. The blades are designed to excel at cutting challenging materials such as roofing, drywall, ceiling tile, and other tough materials. Stanley uses a laser deposition process to apply tungsten carbide powder onto the edge of the blades. The cutting edges are then ground and finished to a sharp angle using diamond wheels. The tungsten carbide is only found on the blade edge, allowing the blade to remain flexible.
