hooked cutting blade
 

A while back, I got a dispenser of 100 Stanley cutter blades that have a C
hook on both ends of the blade. I would guess they would be for cutting
cordage by hooking the cordage and pulling. Is that it, or are there other
uses?

Hi,
Carpet layers use something like that.

I really wish I'd had one the other day while trying to cut the tape
securing a duct to an air handler (especially in the back)...

Maybe for opening taped boxes...

Some roofers use them. I never mastered the art with roofing.

I have never ever in my life had the urge to be a roofer. Or a mortician.
With each person, there's just some things that one will not do.

The only hooked blades made for a standard utility knife that I have ever
seen are made for roofing. Mostly to cut the shingle overhang.

I have never mastered the art of using them.

I bought the "large pack" when I needed to remove some linoleum....
they worked well for cutting the linoleum.

They also work on carpet but I use them so seldom I still have way
more than half of them left.
