[QUOTE=sketchyjoe]In England I think they're called Stanley Knives. You can get them from any DIY shop like B&Q or Homebase.[/QUOTE]

Google searched stanley knives, those aren't exactly what X-actos are, but those would work as well.

I wonder if your Homebase is the same one the US used to have.

This is what I mean by X-acto: [url]http://www.islandblue.com/prodimg/515.gif[/url]

What I use is sort of a stanley knife. The retractable kind. But we call it an x-acto. Whatever.

coheneran 12-29-2005 03:18 PM

No, exactoknives are different. I got one from a craft shop. But here it's called Heavy Duty Hobby Knife, because the English have no imagination. That's why we have juice called JustJuice and orange drink actually called Orange Drink. Everything else is imported. We have English locally made caramel bars (from Scotland) called Caramel.

I call the retractable's box cutters, as that's what we use them for. Also call it the terrorist weapon since thats the knife of choice for would-be plane hijackers, or so the news says and thats why you can't bring one on board a plane.

I prefer the small X-acto because it's easier to manuever then box cutters.

asdf 12-29-2005 03:23 PM

Mine isn't exactly a box cutter (because we have one of those) because it's smaller. I find it very easy to use, and it's really handy because when the blade is dull, you just stap it and you have a new one.

Yeah, Xactos are way easier to manuever. I used to use a box cutter that I found laying around the house, but I got fed up with it and went out and bought an Xacto. Best decision of my life... Well, maybe not the best, but still a damn good one!

Brain Toad 12-29-2005 04:25 PM

I never had to buy one, since my dad used to build model cars, we had one lying around. We have tons of box cutters too because of all the damn shipments my dad gets.

Have you ever looked in the boxes? Your dad might be a cocaine trafficker. That would be pretty cool.

A Sexy Russian Nymphomaniacs trafficker would be still cooler.

I tried that for awhile, but I found that they were only putting out if you married them.

Not unless you're the Jewish owner of the Catholic nympho training facility near Sverdolovsk and you're complaining about their absurd Christian beliefs.

No its just pounds and pounds of marijuana.

skankthenspank 12-29-2005 08:42 PM

Small blade x-acto knives work very well for detailed stencils. I just got a new leather jacket, ive started to diy it out, tommorow im getting more pins and studs for it. I'm not sure what else I'll do to it.

So for Christmas I got a screenprinting kit. I'll need to bust that out soon and figure out how it works.
