Customer Reviews:

toughest tape out there...but wish it had a more visible case [Posted on 2007-12-08]
I'll give it 5 stars as this is a much better tape than the Fat Max and others. The extra width matters for "stand out". I also have a 16 footer if I want to just save weight. It seemed to me that Fat Max one inchers had a tendency to brake sooner even than the cheaper ones. This one although has seen a couple of monthes seems substantially tougher and the case doesn't seem any bigger than the Fat Max yellow one-incher.

The only downside is that it's easy to misplace with it's dark, black and silver case. I may have to spray paint it a brighter color just to keep track of it. NOT sure what good the knife is? Sharp and small....but maybe if you shoot a squirrel with your nailgun and want to skin it and put it in your soup? A cute little knife for your collection but the price just for the tape measure is worth it. Nice for framing a roof and you don't want to climb so much.
