If you scroll down to the detailed item description, sometimes it shows country of origin...........

Sorry for the poor quality, I couldn't post a .pdf, so I had to make it a .jpg

Got the Amazon link to that seller? Here's what that section says in the link I gave in post 75. No mention of country of origin. Notice the part number is different: 52-77750 vs 77750. The knock-offs on eBay call it a p/n "77750". The one you listed is probably a knock-off ... who's the seller on Amazon? Need to see the link.

The seller is "Longacre Store"

Edit: Some of the 1 thru 4 star comments are funny. People think its like a can opener that punctures the lid, lol.

The top critical review by HosteenHoskieBegay nailed it, I think. The poor quality shows, the $20 versions are most likely the same product.

I just put in an order for an Ebay special for 19 bucks minus the PP MC 3% cashback

I have always used a hacksaw which is a pain in the rear quarters.

So, shortly I will be cutting that Napa 1516


@53' Stude

I found this in the mailbox

$18.37 after MC cashback

Awesome! Where’s filter autopsy post?

I’ve got this one - only cut one filter (a Baldwin) but it works well. This design is available from several brands, I reckon they’re all about the same. It came with a spare cutter blade.

I got my filter cutter on Amazon for $24 a year ago its the "Qagea 77750 Oil Filter Cutter" and here it is in action:



I know I know, you're not supposed to use it upside down, it was just easier to consistently film it this way.

I just now cut open the Napa 1516

How many filters cut between cutting wheel r&r ?

And good source for a pack of replacements

I have not had to replace any of my Longacre cutting wheels to date. Bought mine in 2015

 

[MrQuackers]

Mine is Chinesium

Seller probably purchased a few gross from AliExpress

For good measure, I liberally coat the works with PBlaster
prior to use

Back in the day, when I was a young pup, I got my bike parts from Earl, a great guy who ran his bicycle shop out of his detached garage. He was about 90 years old and loved to talk. He said, regarding products that it was a skin game. He was great with the colorful stories such as his adventures in the Pacific during ww2

Also he was an inventor, claiming to invent the Jake brake, and construction tools, such as for holding drywall in place
