Is this the right tool for your job?

✓CHOOSE THIS WHEN
  • Powder-Coated Metal Body: Durable construction with a bright red or silver color for easy visibility.
  • Top-Slide Push Button: Simple mechanism for adjusting the blade with ease.
  • 9 Cutting Depths: Versatile blade settings to suit different cutting tasks.
✕DO NOT FORCE THE FIT
  • The documented overlap-nose blade support and Made-in-USA / US-made blade — those are the three-position 42070's claims, not this colored knife's; specify the 42070 when a supported blade and US origin are the requirement.
  • Tool-free blade changes with a cushioned grip — the MAXXGRIP 42081.
  • No-play rigidity for the heaviest pulls and cold-weather cutting — the fixed-blade 42090.
  • Self-retracting, content-protected cutting under a safety policy — the Switchblade class.
  • Single-pass depth through thick flooring — the 25mm snap-off 42051.

How the pros run it

01

Choose the position deliberately

Nine steps are there to be matched to the stock — pick the shallowest that clears the material for the stiffest and safest cut, and extend only as far as needed. Reverse before you replace. The trapezoid blade has two ends; flip it for a second fresh edge when the first goes dull, then replace it. Change at the drag. A tired edge invites a harder push and a slipped cut — swap the blade the moment it stops parting cleanly. Retract and contain. Slide the blade home whenever the knife is set down, and put spent double-ended blades in a sharps container — two live edges each.

Asked at the counter

BUYER QUESTIONS ANSWERED BEFORE THE CART, NOT AFTER THE RETURN
Is this the same knife as the red one?
Yes — the 42075 and the red 42074 are the same nine-position powder-coated top-slide trapezoid knife; only the color (and the red's mini-card packaging) differ.
Why does the online description say "red"?
Because Hyde's silver listing carries the red listing's copy verbatim — a copy-paste artifact . The catalog name and variant identity confirm this unit is silver.
How many depth positions?
Nine — fine-step depth control, versus the 42070's three.
Does it have the overlap nose and US-made blade?
Not in its documented facts — those claims are the 42070's. Choose the 42070 if you need them.
What blades does it take?
Standard heavy-duty trapezoid utility blades (42100/42150/42101), or round-tip 42117/42118 for a safety program .
