To change the blade: press the yellow button, while holding button down pull out the old blade. Inserting the new blade: again press the yellow button, while holding the button down insert the new blade. Easy as 123.

Comments about Stanley Tools Stanley Instant Change Utility Knife with Retractable Blade:
Bought this at a big box store as a set with two retractable knives. The retractable with the screw to open was simple and well made, easy to change. The Instant Change was not so instant. The directions on the back of the package to change the Instant Change was only a pictorial. Without going on line and looking at a You Tube, I would never have known to push the yellow button (which happens to have very little give so you're not sure if you are pushing it at all). I would have been happier with 3 Interlock reractable knives than this Instant Change Model. After several attempts with my arthritic hands, it finally fit. Stanley could make better directions rather than frustrate me.

Comments about Stanley Tools Stanley Instant Change Utility Knife with Retractable Blade:
The other two reviews are correct. I spent 10-15 minutes trying to insert the blade by following the tiny drawing on the back of the package. Went to [@] and had the blade in in a few seconds. Works pretty good with good instructions. I don't know why stanley couldn't write instructions.

Comments about Stanley Tools Stanley Instant Change Utility Knife with Retractable Blade:
Either I'm an idiot, or the design is defective. Glad to see I'm not the only person who's having trouble just getting the blade in. I bought it because it looked easy to change the blades. Boy was I wrong. Don't waste your time purchasing this.

Just bought this knife and I can't return it fast enough. Absolutely no instructions on how the change the blade. Being that you're dealing with a very sharp blade this is very dangerous.
