Actually it does have a blade storage but you can only fit one blade. Flip open the blade and look closely inside on the right side of the handle. Also check out the packaging, it says it on the back!

[@AjGalloway95]

Can confirm. My absolute favorite edc I’ve had. I do residential remodeling and it’s so insanely handy to have the screwdriver in the end. Full disclosure I abuse it and use it like a prybar and it holds up! I love the latch to keep the driver open.

I work in a Home Depot. I purchased this exact one he’s talking about before hand though. Anyways started carrying it day to day and it blew me away how many times I noticed it coming in handy. The screw driver saved my but a few times loading doors outside in the lot. Always being the first one with my knife out ready cut whatever the customer needs cut. It’s definitely my favorite spur of the moment just needed a knife and happened to get something really amazing in the end.

[@Mark-nova]

I learned more about Milwaukee Fastbacks in this video than I ever knew. I just checked my Milwaukee blade knife and it's a Fastback. It must be an old first generation because it was different than the older model shown. Opens the same quick way though. Now I need to get the new one...

[@BariumCobaltNitrog3n]

I've had one of these for years, I love it. I would never strip wire with it but I like the string cutter that you can use when it's closed. Would trade that screwdriver for a removable magnet level for pipe bending.

[@BluetoothBlades]

Good idea !

[@HalfBlndAssassin]

I’ve had my fastback 2 for years now and it’s still great. I love the extra blade holder, helps in a pinch when I need a sharp blade

[@MrRedtaco11]

Because of this video, I am now a sub. I bought my first Milwaukee product that was a heated coat about 4 years ago now. Minus the wires breaking in the coat a few months ago, the product is amazing. I got my first big boy tools and they were Milwaukee. Just an impact with some extra batteries that can be used in my heated coat and vise versa. I have tons basic hand tools and they’re good, I’m not hard on my tools and you’d think the hand tools were brand new, even though they are over a decade old now. As the years go on I find myself looking at Milwaukee products more and more. They can be used during a blackout for lighting etc. Next year I hope to use them while camping. Thanks for the videos.

[@ToolReviewZone]

That's awesome, welcome to the channel taco!!!!!!!

[@danfletcher1470]

I work with a cardboard boxes all day and I’ve been through probably 20 utility knives over the past 30 years, Milwaukee is the best. I’ve been carrying the fastback before this one for the past 3 years and it works great.

[@leeroyclarkson]

You should look at their safety fastback. The blade automatically retracts when you aren’t squeezing out. It was my favorite when I was a box cutter.

[@philipdove1705]

My first Milwaukee tool was a gen 1 compact fastback utility knife its lasted for 3 years ripping carpets and cutting hundreds of drywall sheets. Still works fine and is my favorite utility knife

[@gamesforyoutwo]

I love the 6-1 fastback. In the painting trade it is great for point up/masking phases. Being able to cut out protruding drywall, screw in "nail pops", unscrew cover plates, and cut plastic with one tool is great. I normally carried a utility knife and a screwdriver, it was very bulky and loud in my side pocket.

[@edgaraquino2324]

Nice!😊

[@wilfredoramosjr.7881]

Just brought one, and I love it, don't leave home without it

[@Ninjump]

As a jack-of-all-trades type carpenter I really love the 5-blade storage of the current gen. 3 regular blades and 2 hook blades for roofing and I'm set for a build! As an edc off-site though this new generation will be fantastic. Slice a box, fix a kid's toy, open my laptop, strip a wire, adjust my bike, crack a beer. Amazing, way to go Big Red.

[@levibeselt2068]

I found one when I was in grade 8 outside on a field, kept it, and now 7 years later I'm now using it every day and I love it.

[@mac4427]

Carry one daily for work and love it. Make sure to check the torx screws that hold it together. Mine came loose and the driver fell off. Luckily I found the screw and bushings(which are copper not cheap plastic!) and got it back together. Actually took all the screws out and hit them with some blue loctite. So worth $20!

[@matthewsquillante1590]

Saw this and now it’s my number one choice for Christmas

[@KasparJames]

You can store 1 Extra blade in the handle section. Look for a little razor blade icon and opposite of that icon is space for 1 blade to lock into the body close to the side.

[@PlumbingDetective]

That's real naaaaaas likeeeee.

[@jordansnyder2258]

I love the fast back, been using them for years. I ran. Over one multiple times with a skids loader while doing grading after leaving it just in the track. Cleaned out the mud after I found it two weeks later and worked like a champ

[@jdfarm1]

I got my first Fastback for my birthday over a year ago from my kids. The oldest of my 4 boys was 12 and the youngest was 8. They went with their mom (my lovely wife) to get me a utility knife because they knew I used mine a lot. I did not even know the Fastback existed, but my boys had a whole list of criteria they were looking for. They looked at a whole bunch of utility knives and settled on the Fastback. I raised them well. I now know what I want for my next birthday.

[@ToolReviewZone]

Hahaha, that's awesome and I love comments like this. You raised good kids jd👊👊

[@thatoneperson7204]

I had one my dad loved it so much he stole it and carries it every day so I stand by it😂

[@turks-n-tines8154]

I do love the fastbacks. I own 3 and use them everyday. My only issue I have with the older ones is where the release is so I’m glad they moved it. For me I’d rather have blade storage than the screwdriver but the bottle opener is cool !

[@Corathor]

Read the comments, it has blade storage for 1 blade.

[@afatherofmany]

When I ran the shop these are the only utility knives I would buy. The quality is very good and they are absolutely amazing to get out and get the job done quickly.

[@shanemetcalf6560]

I watched this video during a random KZbin rabbit hole day. After watching it, all I asked my wife and kids for Christmas was this knife. Everyone that sees it, wants one. Can't believe how much the screw driver comes in handy. Thanks for making this video, it sold me.

[@towboatjeff]

Damn, now i need another knife.

[@PaddyGun]

My dad got me this to cut bale tape and I didn’t think much of it but this guy made me appreciate such a simple tool

[@zooyorkk]

I like the mini fastback. Its more pocket friendly at work where I cut straps, cardboard, tape, and plastic wrap. For me the large fastbacks strap cutter notch catches on surfaces sometimes when I'm cutting. I would also love to see different color options for the fastback. It really is the best utility knife I've come across.

[@dr.valkyre43]

Yes, it is the only good one. And, if you have minimal skills, you can make your own handle replacements from wood or plastic turning blocks.

[@CaseyA.]

First Milwaukee tool I bought was an original fastback slim version. I absolutely love the thing, plus it still looks and works great with my new Milwaukee drills and saw:)

[@phantran3646]

Whoa. I'm glad I read this comment. I've been using this for months thinking it didn't have extra blade storage! Ugh, I love this thing

[@joekeil954]

The BIGGEST thing I am sad to see they got rid of from the older version is the option to lock the blade at a 45 degree angle. It gave you so much leverage and comfort by not having to torque your wrist downward so far on hard cuts. The day mine finally wears out will be a sad day. Excellent review though!

[@Jesus.X]

That was good in the warehouse industry too saved me some hand pain.

[@summershine_7702]

100% my favorite Knife, it's been in my EDC for over a year. I Absolutely love it.

[@johnnewell5025]

I agree that this is possibly the most useful knife I've ever owned for daily real-world use. I don't think you can really compare it to a traditional multi-tool, but I don't need all the bells and whistles on a traditional multi-tool on a daily basis, either. This one checks all the important boxes. Sharp. Easy to "re-sharpen." Onboard storage for a spare blade (with two edges, to boot). Very safe. Phillips #2 driver. Slotted driver. Ability to use other driver bits. Strong. Secure lock. Good and very durable clip. Comfortable/good ergos. And great pricing. Everyone should own a few of these. 👍

[@iitzDiRTY]

Me at the beginning of this video. I already have a craftsman spring loaded switchblade utility knife that’s been going strong for 3yrs now. Me after seeing the screwdriver, bottle opener & wire strippers on this. “Honey, where’s my keys, running to Home Depot real quick”

I own A Do It Best hardware store for 27 years and I have been using the Millwaukee fast back for 14 months. It is the best utility knife that I have ever used. I never leave home without it. Great informative video. Thank you.

[@tylerdirden3416]

I LOVE my old fastback(no extra storage), so much that i ALWAYS carried a pocket large knife and once i held the fastback i knew it would be my new daily carry and i haven't bought a pocket knife since which is prolly around ten years. But i was kinda on the fence on this new one truthflly until u showed me the bottle opener. Now i want to buy one for sure, but dont truthfully know if it will replace my daily carry but all these new features do interest me enough to purchase and find out.

[@asianmikedesigns]

Yep, cant live without my fastback as well and also have been known to rapidly flip the blade in and out to dissipate some ocd energy. i think one of the biggest likes for me is the blade staying locked when its closed. because i keep it clippd on my belt and on my hip it wont randomly open up and snag on car seats.

[@Ilikebourbonalot]

It is the best knife ever. However I lost mine at work. I’m sure whoever found it loves it. So lucky me I need a new one. I foresee a trip to the Depot.

[@ppoblete2280]

Just got one as a gift from my step dad. I have $300+ knives which run from beater work tool steel knives to high grade steel limited run knives and to be honest this has came in more handy than any multi-tool I have owned. It's great! Plus anytime my edge dulls out I just swap the blade and we're back in action. Ergonomics are fantastic. I don't usually like utility knives. But this has everything I need. Lock up on the screw driver liner lock as well as the utility knife lockup is nice and tight. And it DOES have storage for a blade near the liner of the utility lock up..

[@garyedwards5934]

I have had my original for about 8 years. Best knife ever

[@tech99070]

Are you doing something for maintenance? After about 2 years of heavy use (warehouse work) my fastback has worn a "catch" on the bar thing that lets it open and close so it doesn't like to close unless you really mash on the button, and then to add insult to injury it sometimes opens slightly unintentionally on my pocket meaning I reach for a partially open knife. My coworkers all prefer slide out utility knives and most of them are 5+ years old, but I like the fastback for being outside my pocket rather than inside. On the shelf we switched to these new models a few months ago and by all means they just look like the same knife made out of plastic instead of metal, I don't really believe their longevity can possibly be better and I assume this guy has a sponsorship from milwaukee.

[@garyedwards5934]

@@tech99070 i will admit, I since I'm mostly just in management now I don't use it as much as I used to. But I used to use it everyday for everything from drywall to opening boxes

[@Avdeyev318]

To me the reason I love the release on the right side is I would always accidentally pull the blade out while using it to cut Sheetrock in tight corners

[@Ma-ik4hy]

Yup I just got this new one and my old knife went right back in the tool box. It's is a fantastic upgrade.

[@nrich5127]

The fact they include the multi tip screw driver socket is the game changer - I need one now.

[@jhammer929]

This is hands down the best utility knife I've ever owned. With all of the upgrades (which are very cool), that extra blade storage, for me, is key. There's nothing worse than having to hunt around, or go back to the box, and get another blade. I hope that Milwaukee finds a way to add it back to this new, and very cool, utility knife! Great video, man!👊😎

[@wormhole331]

I was looking at this on the home depot site and it says it has storage for 1 extra blade. This guy just missed it.

[@king_of_clutter]

I noticed that as well...blade storage is on back end of handle

[@bwselectronic]

I bought the 2 pack on sale now at Home Depot. I'd been wanting one because they're easy to open and close one handed. I prefer Bosch and Kobalt power tools over Milwaukee. But I definitely like this knife over Kobalt's version.

[@BigEd8]

I've owned several fastbacks and I absolutely love it. Your right I will never own anything else. Milwaukee is no doubt in there own league. I love the upgrade. Just needs to hold a couple extra blades. Just 2 would be great.

[@chrisfrank8413]

This is True Love. I can see the tear in the corner of your eye, as you open that knife up. You sir, have met your match!

[@MrPoncirus]

I'm a contractor and I've had the older Fastback for years and it's been my EDC (Every Day Carry) for as long as I've had it. Until I saw this video. I immediately started looking for it and had to buy it from Home Depot online because it sold out at all my local stores. Initially, I didn't like it because the spring clip was too tight for my jeans pocket. Then I widened the gap up a bit with a small pry bar and it's perfect. The knife opens far more easily than the older models, even though I never had problems with those. I do like the extra single blade storage. I've even used the screwdriver once; it's handy, but would be handier if regular 1"wire detent bits would lock in place; as it is now, you can still use them, but they bottom out and the 1/4" nut driver may get in the way if you're in a tight spot. However, the slotted and Phillips tips are what most people need most of the time, so it's not a major issue and those DO lock in place well with a wire detent on either side of the 1-1/4" bit. I've not used the bottle opener since I usually drink my snobby craft beer in cans; since it's always in my pocket I also don't use the lanyard attachment. I didn't think the older model needed any improvement, but this is my new EDC. Thanks for bringing it to my attention!

Dude, I was at a job site un packing furniture from boxes, a few years ago...I didn't have a utility cutter. One of the foremen lent me his. Yeah, it was the Milwaukee Fastback! I was so impressed by that cutter. I kept myself busy, was always running around(keeping things in order, and being on top of anything that came up...). At the end of the day, I was sure to return that tool to the foreman... I went to him directly and handed it to him. He noticed how much I really liked it that he handed it back to me and said that I could have it! Man! Yeah! I was super jazzed! I have had that cutter on my side for a few years. I showed it off to everyone that I met... Then, last year, I was on a jobsite and im saw a young kid starting off in the trades... He was a good worker. On the last day, I walked up to him and gave him the Milwaukee Fastback. For the next few weeks, I sorely missed that knife. I'd curse and grimace everytime I had to unfold my other "lockblade utility cutter". No big deal, I purchased a new one.

Just picked one up today it’s so cool.

If this had an LED built in then it would be in my pocket replacing my EDC flashlight and kershaw.

A knife with a built in LED would be pretty bulky

Milwaukee's website lists this: Milwaukee FASTBACK 6in1 Folding Utility Knife 48-22-1505 as having blade storage. A mess up on their part, or maybe I'm not reading the picture on their site correctly. Hmmm...

I just looked on the listing at Home Depot, they definitely show one blade stored in the handle.

I just bought 2 of these today. You can store 1 extra blade in the handle. They even have a tiny picture of a blade on the handle to show where you put it in.

LOVE them . . . I'm on my third Fastback. Only because I have lost more tools in my life than I have owned. (yeah, I know) I am in love with the button and wrist flick. I have the blade storage on my current one. Hate that's going away. My FAVORITE thing about it actually is the clip. Only one that I have found that slides easily onto the edge of my pocket.
