Can this knife cut tires? I want to make planters and other crafts out of old car tires, but what I have just won't cut it.

It's a heavy duty knife surely able to cut tires..The knife come with a very sharp edge be careful....on a 4 out of 5 this K - bar rates a 5 with me.

This can DEFINITELY cut through a tire. I don't know what knives you have tried so I'm not to sure. There are videos on youtube of people abusing this knife, cutting down trees and stuff like that.

I'm sure it would for a while. I think you would be better off with something like a razor knife that has replaceable blades though.

You can sharpen them, but it will grind away a bit of the serrations each time, depending on which set of wheels your using that can cause your serrated blade to end up not so serrated after a while.

Sorry I haven't tried this - sounds like you have an interesting recipe. I think the shred blade would come pretty close.

It's very thick and heavy duty. I don't know what you would cut it with. I think even good shears would be inadequate.

I don't see why that wouldn't be possible, but not sure what you would use to cut it. It seems pretty durable.

This is one of those things where simple tire irons sold by Amazon would be useful The short spoons would be my choice. Maybe the short ripple if you don't already have one. You probably will have none of the problems of getting the rim to let go of the tire and the tire is flexible enough you might not need tools anyway. 15 inch Hankook tires are so flexible that with proper lubrication almost need no tools at all. Amazon was where I found the Hankook tires and found them flimsy but also on the other side of the coin get better miles per gallon and survive things that would destroy any other brand I have ever bought. This tire changer is overkill for Hankook tires and probably all motorcycle tires. Tube tires also require few or no tools beyond spreading the tire for patching tire and or tube. The tire changer is made for heavy duty automotive work not usually related to motorcycle tires etc.

Sorry, I am not sure. If it is too long you can always cut it down. I had to do that on mine, with 700 mm tires.

you can cut the tire off this takes time and you could damage the rim, this unit works well removing tires but youhave to stay with in the approved tire sizes, it will not work on lawn tractor tires. it's best to bolt this unit downyou can use cross rails to bolt through if you don't want to secure it to concrete.

I must use tin snips and if the edges are rough file them down a little. Hacksaw might work as well if you take the rubber out and cut the rubber separately with scizzors.

I didn't try it with a car tire, but I am afraid it's not so strong. Thanks.

The blade is just like a fine cheese grater but I can't imagine how you could sharpen a cheese grater. It does not appear to be disposable to me but I am no expert. I am your everyday DIY'er.

I had a different cutter that I used the shoestring cutter for hashbrowns, zucchini & other things. I find I have to use the next cutter up for all my cutting with this new one. The shoestring cutter cuts too fine.

You can cut on it but your knife won't stay sharp very long. I have cut on mine i don't see cuts, but I'm also careful. And there should be no rust, i haven't got any rust spots or anything else it is S.S.& this is not cheap S.S. 410 S.S. will rust if a magnet sticks to it it is cheap.I tried the magnet & no problem. Good luck. never mind you don't need luck, we sure love ours.

A section of old hack saw blade will work well. If necessary one could use a knife if nothing else is available. I prefer not to use my knife in such a way.

The blade is 1.5mm or 3/32" off the wheel's surface.... definitely just under an 1/8" inch. It might cut slightly thicker if the material being cut is pushed hard against the surface?

If a tire has a an inch long cut I would say it is rendered perilous and should not be used. However, in a pinch, you could put multiple plugs in the cut and it will seal and work. I picked up a razor in my tire once, I put, if I remember correctly, three plugs in the slit and it has not leaked for months. I will not be surprised if it starts to leak again, but it is fixed for now, so I don't care. Yes, it will probably work, no it is not advisable. I would do it to my own tire but not to someone else's.

I do not think it will work....surely you can just use a knife.It works so well for harder fruit and veg....celeriac or beetroot are a dream once grated with this 'machine'
