I will double check in the morning but its not a knife specifically for plasterboard just a fold out knife i have had it an good 6 plus years lost it and found it a few times haha
Just looked it's a forge steel folding knife full metal body. No other info on it, it's well worn. as I say tho just a normal folding "Stanley blade" I cant find it on line so doubt they still make this one sorry.
I think from memory I bought this one cos it was cheep like 7 quid when I lost my old decent one and I needed it that day. I then found the other knife ha and this one turned out to last years and years. I'm a sparky by main trade so I used it every day stripping cable surprised its lasted and still solid now. I personally prefer the smaller simple fold out ones they seem to be sturdier than the fancy big bulky fold out ones with multiple features.
I have a leak in the garage ceiling from the bathroom above. The ceiling has two layers of plasterboard which the building inspector asked me to fix due to the fire hazards from the garage. I am going to cut a hole in the ceiling to give me access to the plastic waste which is causing the leak. I thought I would make an inspection hatch so that I always have access to the shower and basin waste above. I thought I would make the inspection cover out of two layers of plasterboard cut larger than the hole so that it keeps its fire integrity. Then screw it in position. Just wondering if you had any comments and how I should treat the cut edges.
im sorry i don't really have a suggestion, this isnt something i have had to deal with in the past and i wouldn't want to suggest anything that may not be suitable. maybe the building inspector can advise on a product that's fit for purpose with the adequate fire protection needed. sorry i cant help.

Nice pal cheers.
No problem
Was always a struggle getting a good cut with a handsaw can't believe I didn't think of a Stanley before now
Yes it's a much easier method and you get a exact straight line 👍
Have you tried this method for cutting plasterboard yet any help ?
@@RustyDIY will be doing a bit of plasterboarding next week so will comment and let you know 👍🏽, no more handsaw though!
@@nikmoss975 awesome be good to know how you get on 😀
That's not plaster, that's drywall
