Is this the right tool for your job?

✕CHOOSE A DIFFERENT TOOL WHEN
  • Reinforced belting and dense gasket — the .065" flexes under that load, guard or not; use the .083" 60510 (guarded) or 60450 (bare).
  • Deep or dense foam — the hollow-ground 60180/60480, or the 6" hollow blades for thick bun.
  • Tight-curve freehand work where you'd want the handle to spin freely — the guard limits it; use the bare 60570.
  • The most delicate close trims where you'd choke onto the blade — again the bare 60570.
  • And it is not a pry bar, scraper, or striking tool.

THE JOB, THE REASON, AND THE BETTER TOOL

How the pros run it

01

Pull the whole edge, low and sliced

The 5" blade's value is the continuous stroke — engage the full length and draw through, blade laid down to slice cloth cleanly. The guard doesn't change that; it just backstops the hand behind it.
02

Mind the curve trade

The finger guard costs a little of the free handle-rotation you'd use to swing a tight curve. Plan long straight and gentle draws for this knife; for freely following a tight contour, the bare 60570 is more fluid.
03

Tension, always

Canvas, cover cloth, and webbing cut clean only stretched flat and held; slack material folds around even a keen edge.
04

Maintain the full length of edge

A long high-carbon blade holds a lot of edge — hone all of it, strop, and wipe dry after damp work. A dull section mid-draw shows as a drag mark across a long cut.

Asked before buying

BUYER QUESTIONS, ANSWERED BEFORE YOU ORDER
What's different from the 60570?
Only the safety handle's finger guard. Same 5" × 1" × .065" blade and cut.
4" or 5" guarded knife?
The 5" 60600 for long cuts and wide material; the 4" 60120 for shaped, close work.
Does the guard hurt curved cuts?
It limits free handle rotation a little — fine for straight and gentle draws, less fluid on tight curves than the bare 60570.
Can it cut belting?
No — the .065" is too light; use the .083" 60510 (guarded) or 60450 (bare).
Wood or soft-grip handle?
Listings say "Safety Wood Handle"; the catalog says "soft-grip handle with built-in finger guard" — the guard is certain; the handle-material wording is being reconciled.
