TAJIMA Chalk Line - Chalk-Rite Dura Chalk Box with Extra Bold 1mm Snap Line & Integrated Handle Release - CR401S

Wow, this is the single best chaulk line i've ever used. So comfortable in the hand. The line is strong. It's thin but when you snap it, it leaves a really good line. A ton of chaulk doesnt come flying out when extending the line. It Winds fast. Super heavy feeling but that is quality its metal. Also tajima has the best metal hook for the end of the line.

Absolutely love this chalk box and would highly recommend it. It has an extremely durable braided line that makes crisp, clean chalk lines. The box itself is aluminum with a rubber grip/gasket. It is way better quality than anything that I've seen DeWalt or Irwin put out, that's for sure. I have a good feeling that this box will last me years.. I usually have to buy a new Irwin Speed Line every 5-6 months, and that's if I'm lucky that it lasts that long.The one and only thing that I do not like about this box is the hook. It's not the design, it's the material that it is made of. Like the box, the hook is also made of aluminum only a lot thinner, and It's not hard to bend the hook out of place. Fortunately though, you can use any hook you want, just swap it with something more durable, it'll work just the same.All in all, I give this box 9.5/10.

Best chalk line money can buy makes a perfect fine line for precise work

Best chalkline I ever owned. Seriously this thing has never jammed up on me and I leave it in my pouch all day every day. It rains here ALOT and its never gotten penetrated and gummed up from the rain like soooo many other chalklines I have used have.I love the extra thin line, its super thin but snaps really nicely, my co-workers were very impressed. My partner has a Chalk Right 1, the thicker lined one, and he was jealous too at this ones quality. His is made of plastic, this ones Aluminum.This line is a lifer, and that justifies the extra price in every way.

I only use tajima chalk lines, I own 3 or 4. Picked this up for doing wall layouts as they get walked on and sometimes need to lasat a few days. This thing is awesome if you want a super thick clean line.
