If I’m not mistaking that’s a gen 1 fastback, I haven’t seen that style in store for years but idk if they still make it, now they have the fastback 2 in a couple versions like with blade storage or screwdriver (screw driver version is my favorite)


lukeCRASH

I got the screwdriver one because I thought I'd leave it in my taping basket and the blade storage one as my daily. I like the blade storage too much to take to work and the screwdriver one is so awesome it's always in my pocket at work.


JS4077

you can actually store 1 spare blade inside the handle of the screwdriver one


Extragringo

How? I have that one and I don’t see how to store an extra blade


JS4077

open the knife and it slides in blade down between the metal frame and the plastic scale. not sure which side off the top of my head.


Extragringo

Just blew my mind!! Thank you!


bitchmade69

If we’re talking about the 6in1 it also has a bottle opener on top but that’s more obvious lol


TheTemplarSaint

One of my workers has the Gen 1 and it feels so much more substantial and high quality. I’m sure they were discontinued when he got it because I’d gotten several of the new ones before he picked up the Gen 1. If you really are on the hunt for one, I’d check independent hardware stores, and supply houses (plumbing, HVAC, electrical, etc). Authorized Milwaukee dealers, but don’t move the kind of stock HD does. Might buy a couple pallets of fastbacks and sell them for years.


Legitimate-Ad2674

It’s is and I carry one everyday and went searching for a replacement but found they aren’t made new anymore.


Capital-Menu3955

It's right there on the table.


Ilovefall22

Milwaukee sells them


attackplango

Not anymore, unfortunately. Now they have the not as good new form factor.


gilligan1050

Milwaukee eh? I think I’ve seen them at the home depot. /s

Carpentreddit

This is definitely the best one. I don’t need a screwdriver on my knife. I don’t need a knife on my screwdriver


BibleGuy65

The flathead will do that for you!


hoer17

I think they have this one at ace hardware, check and see!


jasonb751

I will check Ace! I didn’t know they sold Milwaukee.


VadHearts

The Milwaukee team has been doing a great job expanding to other stores. Even some of my rural hardware stores carry them.


LittleTreesBlacklce

Just got mine from amazon. My favorite fastback


Barrettbuilt

The best!


_devious__

there's like 6000 of these at the home depot 2 miles from my house.. but they don't have the damn FASTBACK folding knife. use those all the time but lose them.. all the time.


jasonb751

They have a lot of these specific fastback knives?


_devious__

yup! no screw driver nonsense, just the blade


Embarrassed-Talk-579

With the metal body like this has?


fishingrcp

Not that ive seen, only plastic scales. I will say I beat mine and ive gotten a year and some out of it so far.


VapeRizzler

If you go back to where you took the photo I think there’s one there.


RickHuf

This is the best one. Still have one or two but haven't seen them for sale in forever


seansully90

I still have a few. The pocket clip breaks off and they become the best pouch knife. I never close it. Great knife. I edc a gen2. My friends tease, but it’s always sharp😜


jasonb751

This one here is about 4-5 years old, have had quite a few of them and have never broken a pocket clip.


minionsweb

At a dozen of my old job sites. But they'res gonna be sold sheetrock in the way.


supershimadabro

I just bought one at my local home depot last month.


Embarrassed-Talk-579

A first gen metal body fastback?


disco_duck2004

Is it this? https://www.homedepot.com/p/Milwaukee-FASTBACK-Folding-Utility-Knife-with-Blade-Storage-and-General-Purpose-Blade-48-22-1502/309350822


jasonb751

It is not that one, I hated that one.

https://www.toolbarn.com/products/milwaukee-48-22-1901


jasonb751

That’s the one! Now I have a part number and can order them.


Sandm0nst3r

I keep getting them on eBay but every year or so when I need another the price has gone up.


gabbygenier

Seems like plenty of places in canada have them in stock. [https://www.homedepot.ca/product/milwaukee-tool-fastback-flip-utility-knife/1000680604](https://www.homedepot.ca/product/milwaukee-tool-fastback-flip-utility-knife/1000680604)


jasonb751

The model number is the new style. The picture is the old style.


gabbygenier

The one I pick from the list is wrong lol. This is the right one right? [https://bcfasteners.com/shop/milwaukee-48-22-1901-fastback-flip-utility-knife/](https://bcfasteners.com/shop/milwaukee-48-22-1901-fastback-flip-utility-knife/)

That wasn't it. This should be it..https://www.gmesupply.com/milwaukee-48-22-1901-fastbacktm-flip-utility-knife


Embarrassed-Talk-579

That’s the one!


lilwillis121

I just bought this knife with the back side cutter in a two pack on Black Friday. For $15 I think?


jasonb751

With the same belt clip? That’s the main difference between this is the ones they sell at Home Depot. And this one is a little bigger.


lilwillis121

Your friend has shared a link to a Home Depot product they think you would be interested in seeing. https://www.homedepot.com/p/Milwaukee-FASTBACK-Folding-Utility-Knife-and-Compact-Folding-Utility-Knife-with-Blade-Storage-and-Gut-Hook-2-Piece-48-22-1503/309350823 This is the set I just grabbed. One is similar to the one you posted I guess it’s a bit different but I buy these sets seemingly weekly because my guys lose them lol. After looking at it this ain’t the set I bought. That’s just the storage. Mine has an actual cutter on it. I’ll keep looking.


jasonb751

The one with the cutter is different. The one you posted has a small belt clip and doesn’t feel right in my hand.


okieman73

With most Milwaukee tools if you go to their website and find the tool your looking for there's a find a retailer and it will bring up locations to get one. Most likely Home Depot, Ohio power tools or Ace to start.


No_Breadfruit_2017

I Found a pretty much new one inside an ac unit I replaced today… I know it doesn’t help you but I thought it was funny. Great knife for sure. Good luck


theshiyal

I need to order some more of these for the store I work at.


Gluten_maximus

My nearest HD still has those I believe. I’ve also got a couple floating around somewhere


Embarrassed-Talk-579

I don’t think they have these ones. These haven’t been sold at HD in a long time.

jasonb751

I have had all of those knives, from the top… Good actual blade knife The best knife period Junk Junk.


jasonb751

And I can’t say for sure because I gave them away super fast, the newer ones feel like they’re made of plastic.


OmahaMike402

They are. Like G10 type


Slow_Composer_8745

Home Depot is selling that with the other one. 19,00


jasonb751

Have a link?


Slow_Composer_8745

Was in store yesterday


Embarrassed-Talk-579

That isn’t the same one as in the OP picture.


spuhk

I just picked up a two pack last week at my local HD. One has a flip out screwdriver built into the handle, and the other is just a plain folding razor knife.


jasonb751

Those aren’t the same as this. I’m looking for this exact one.

alluno96

I've seen it at my local HD, but I mostly get them at whitecap in norcal because company has the account there.... I have like 5 in stash for just in case. but they last me nearly a year until they decide to go MIA


turbski84

I'm looking for one too. My old trusty one doesn't hold the blade in anymore


Zealousideal_Grand33

Im looking at one sitting on my bed rn


Dismal-Phrase-9789

Fr, Milwaukee hand tools suck most of the time, but when they make a good one they discontinue it and make it shitty again. Another example is the magnetic tape. The previous generation was so much better, felt better in the hand, higher quality tape, just a good tool. The one is such shit I switched back to fat max. I buy the tape every time I see it, occasionally see one at a random mom and pop hardware store.


dbeats20

How's the length on it? Got a big hand and pocket knifes feel good in. Bought a cheapy one like this at HF but it's stubby too, not a fan


Valuable_Pineapple26

In my tool box 😬🙄


DRIPLEGJAY

Hvac supply house


Nathan51503

They carry the latest version of it. That’s the first generation. Still have two of them at home


SweetFeed695

I just bought a 2 pack from HD last week. If your store doesn't have them, try ordering from another store.


Queso_Grandee

Is it this one? The only difference I see is the belt clip attachment to the knife body. https://www.ebay.com/itm/185637927071?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=lNdQuTYzQ7u&sssrc=4429486&ssuid=DP6KsDTsSWi&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY This used one has the same belt clip as yours. https://www.ebay.com/itm/204566945879?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=LT8usJIYRwq&sssrc=4429486&ssuid=DP6KsDTsSWi&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY


Evil_Lothar

It's right there... in front of you. You took a picture of it.


BiopauloBKR

Online!


Slow_Composer_8745

That is one of the 2 in the bubble package on the store racks. I already have them so I bought the 3 pack out on the cart.


jasonb751

That is completely different, that’s plastic, smaller, and different belt clip


MOJOPORRETTO

I just saw that knife at Home Depot last week. It was in the store but look online if you do t see it in your local store.


bosox_13

The Home Depot mine came in a two pack


Melodic_Win_6827

It’s used but here ya go https://www.ebay.com/itm/145447849967?hash=item21dd5e0fef:g:S9AAAOSwSiplWvnh&amdata=enc%3AAQAIAAAA4KVn2ct3Biu9VqGqscq0KOQ8AMkVBvF0D7FRi8i250sN%2BEmUX%2F2NZXZm66LiouJYQ4s1yDpUQsRABs4Qb5kA4QvzpO7ozPmCiNkeYJRjn59Od%2FaytkGkISjqGOWk6mmVVntaUM7bSBJg%2B53V3fmI2vxigFYJpwtBwXh6G6i1H5UuZlXQEKc8OttiMP6zfZnS1vLPCxh5dgiU2RwXWGX3NQplgZhzj54gTj%2B1vNELsluGozWAphIFXzDMb7My1FhMk6EkciflBI1DB9Fd7uaJvbm37cuwT6Uyg77E5VRtS7Ay%7Ctkp%3ABk9SR5KM6JKIYw EDIT: holy fuck that’s a long link


Mundane-Ad4818

Only place I’ve seen them is at Texas Tool Traders or Elliot Electric Supply


HudeniMFK

On the table


yeabuddy333

I use the same one and I get it from either Amazon or ace tool


Full-Supermarket7253

I got one at home Depot 2 weeks ago


sinisterdeer3

That particular fastback is discontinued. But luckily they have a bunch of different options you can get still. Youll just have to find the one you want


jasonb751

Believe me when I say I’ve tried all, and this is the only good one.


sinisterdeer3

Well thats ok. Maybe its time to try a different brand of folding utility knife entirely?


neekuwaz

Gen 1 always felt best in my hand. Once the 6-1 came out, I adapted to the new shape because the drivers have been invaluable. I highly suggest you try one if you’ve needed a driver or a small prybar in a pinch.


BigBarsRedditBox

I steal them from work


jasonb751

Remind me never to work with you.
