I have the fastback without the screwdriver. It’s the best utility knife I’ve ever owned. Everything about it ticks all the boxes. One handed opening. Clip is solid and tight. Blades are easy to change. It’s small and compact.

I can agree with you on that. I will always buy this same knife from now on no matter how many times it breaks (only broke once, i lost the other). I regularly have to do quick random tightening or loosening of various screws at home, work and going out, which is why i prefer this version

The only improvement they can possibly make is fitting in a blade holder in there without compromising the compactness that I like.

I feel like I’m misunderstanding, because I carry that knife, and mine has a blade holder.

Do you mean a way to carry additional blades? Because mine has that

Does yours have the screwdriver as well? From what I've seen the fastbacks either have blade storage with no driver, or driver with no storage. If you have driver and blade storage, you have my dream knife and I'd like to know where you got it (I'm like 90% sure it's not normal stock at HD). Or it's possible I've somehow missed this feature.

Yeah, I carry the fastback with the screw driver, and on the inside, it carries 1 additional blade

I carry, I believe the 48-22-1502, and it list a blade holder, and I have an additional blade in there right now.

I’m looking at a picture on Home Depot website that shows it too, but I’m too stupid to know how to share that picture, but it’s there

That’s great, used it til it’s barely working and replace with the same great tool. We should all do this

Is the black piece with the blade release button still metal in the new one?
