I have a nice Milwaukee utility knife with a magnetic 5 blade storage compartment. Love it. Fits my hand well. Blade extends and retracts nice. Push button blade change that really works. I miss-placed it a while ago.

Bought another one. It is not at all the same. At first glance, while in the packaging, I thought it was identical. As soon as I unpacked and got my hand on it, I did not like it. Just a little smaller, more angular lines rather than the comfortable rounded lines of my first one. Blade retract is not smooth, push button blade change is not crisp and solid like the first one. I supposed they saved a few cents re-designing it. VERY disappointed.

Fortunately I found my good one under the seat in my truck.

That's much older than me. My Dad had knives like this when I was a little monkey. And I'm in my 50's.
