Common questions
Is this a putty knife?
No. It is a flexible joint knife for compound and tape, not a glazing or scraping putty knife.
Can I tape a seam with it?
Not bed tape. At 3" it leaves a ridge in the recess. Use a 4 to 6" knife for flat seams.
Can I set a popped nail with the handle?
Not with this model. The smallest B&S stainless knife that sets nails is the 4" 01550.
What is it for?
Screws, patches, returns and reveals that wider blades cannot reach flat.
